Dragon Ball FighterZ
The Dragon Ball Z franchise has already had a great collection of fighting games to boast but Dragon Ball FighterZ could finally give us the traditional 2D fighting experience that we’ve all been waiting for. From what we have seen in the beta tests, Dragon Ball FighterZ is poised to be the first Dragon Ball Z game that really captures the spirit and pacing of the fights we so often see unfold in the anime that inspired the game. Every element you could possibly think of that makes Dragon Ball battles feel so uniquely their own is present in the game. You can rapidly teleport behind enemies, hurl devastating projectiles across the screen, charge up your ki, fly towards your opponent with homing attacks, and even send your foe flying through boulders and mountains on various stages in the game.
There was never a fight in Dragon Ball Z that didn’t involve some sort of environmental destruction, which makes the addition of this in the game feel particularly special for fans of the franchise. This tag-team fighter comes at just the right time as well. For anyone who is sad to see the 3v3 mechanics of Marvel vs. Capcom go away, Dragon Ball FighterZ will fill the new void and allow you to craft a team of three of your favorite Dragon Ball characters. If you’re anxious to get your hands on this title, you won’t have to wait much longer. Dragon Ball FighterZ is slated to hit shelves on Jan. 26.
