By New character arriving next year, balance modification forthcoming
- by Sammy Barker
In a remarkable update, Dragon Ball FighterZ is introducing a new character next year.
The game, which initially debuted in 2018 on the PS4, was transitioned to the PS5 in 2025. However, the inclusion of Goku (Super Saiyan 4, DAIMA) as downloadable content in Spring 2026 will signify the first expansion of the roster in over four years.
This is truly astonishing long-term backing for enthusiasts of the game.
Moreover, competitive players might be thrilled to discover a balance modification is set to be released later today, 12th October, enhancing “strategic depth to Z-Reflect” and refreshing “every character”. A comprehensive set of patch notes is expected to be published later today.
Clearly, developer Arc System Works has expressed a desire to support Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls for a decade, serving as an illustration of how robust its post-launch support can be.
To persist in issuing balance modifications and new characters for Dragon Ball FighterZ at this stage is an extraordinary demonstration of support for everyone who has engaged with the game, and we will undoubtedly be restarting it and enjoying a few matches to appreciate all of the developers’ hard efforts.
