Expect Chaos… A Whole Lot of It
Dragon Ball FighterZ already had an incredibly chaotic and fast-paced trailer but even that just doesn’t quite prepare you for just how much mayhem really starts to unfold on screen. At any given point, you can literally have up to four different characters on screen and each of them are important to pay attention to.
You’ll have to pay attention to the main character that your opponent is fighting with at the time while also keeping a watchful eye on assist characters that may be called in to help break combos or completely swap with the original character. Technically speaking, it’s nothing that fighting game players haven’t seen before with the likes of Marvel v Capcom. Even this, however, seems to be faster and even more frantic.
It’s probably because this is a game not only filled with 3-on-3 brawls, but also filled with characters that are constantly shooting projectiles across the screen and utilizing mechanics that allow them to transport across the screen. Dragon Ball FighterZ has tons of grade-A fighting mechanics that make gameplay feel very familiar to classic fighters but just how much of a frenzy the combat is may present a bit of an adjustment for most players.
