New Characters Coming To ‘Dragon Ball Fighter Z’ & ‘Xenoverse 2’

The Dragon Ball Universe is rich with hundreds of characters, so developers work hard to include as many as they can muster into each game in the series. The most recent issue of the Japanese magazine, Weekly Jump, revealed that new fighters would be coming to Dragon Ball FighterZ and Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2. 

FighterZ will feature Dragon Ball GT antagonist Baby Vegeta, an evil Tuffle Warrior who was hell-bent on galactic domination and eliminating the Saiyan Race until Goku stopped him with his new Super Saiyan 4 transformation. Baby Vegeta will be armed with his Super Galick Gun, Revenge Death Ball, and transforms into his Great Ape form as his Ultimate Attack.

Over the weekend, Bandai Namco released an official trailer for Baby Vegeta, with the video’s ending revealing that SSJ4 Gogeta will be the next fighter coming to FighterZ later next year. Baby Vegeta will arrive on January 15, 2021, for $5 or as part of the Season 3 Pass. Additionally, it was also revealed that FighterZ had sold over six million copies since its release.

Meanwhile, fan-favorite Pikkon will make his debut in Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2. The character appeared in the Other World Tournament Saga from the 7 Season of Dragon Ball Z and the 12 Dragon Ball Z movie Fusion Reborn. While the magazine didn’t reveal any of his attacks, it’s most likely he’ll be equipped with his trademark moves, including his Thunder Flash Attack and His Hyper Tornado Attack. Pikkon will arrive in Xenoverse 2 sometime in spring 2021 as part of a free update for the game.

Dragon Ball FighterZ was released on January 26, 2018, while Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 was released on October 25, 2016. Both are available on all major platforms.
