I think this character roster would be far more interesting if it were based on the Super era, even characters like Krillen are hype in super. Anyways I understand that "Z" subseries is still what people think of when they hear dragon ball. Should be fun regardless

Someone gif Goku's win pose please, its fantastic

I don't doubt we will get more than a few Super characters.

 

[Neoxon]

Oh no doubt. My point is based on the leaks the roster is turd.
Funny to think that the franchise bloomed from Xmen and now has none at launch.

FTFY, & it's not like Capcom could do much about that.

On-topic, I'm curious as to how they'd have Piccolo or Beerus play. I could see Piccolo having ranged normals thanks to his stretchy limbs. And while Beerus would be cool as a glass canon, it'd be a bit weird for his character to not be able to take a hit.

 

[Scotia]

From the vid

damn damn damn

 

[Dartastic]

Yeah. I need this.

 

[Tizoc]

Cell can do Dictator's Crouching HK.
Brilliant.

 

[patchday]

Oh wow I'll make sure to pick this one up. Looks like they going back to their fighting game roots with this one. Last DBZ game I played was DBZ Xenoverse 1 which was a hybrid fighter/grindfest (granted I read Xenoverse 2 improved a lot but havent gotten that one yet)

 

[Gestault]

Damn this is looking great. Five years ago, I'd have laughed at you if you told me I'd be excited for a DBZ game on-stage at one of the "big three" platform conferences.

 

[Sephzilla]

Now I just need footage of my main man and the best dad in DragonBall

 

[QisTopTier]

Do not expect different costumes for the way they do the characters in this. Unless bamco is fronting hella spare workers. Redoing the entire character model from scratch for just about every frame of animation is not worth it

 

[The Omega Man]

Man, this is EXACTLY the Saint Seiya game I always wanted but they making it for fucking Dragon Ball. So jealous right now.

Holy shit another Saint Seiya fan here? I know those feels bro, we got Soldier's Soul winch was serviceable at best, but we will never a SS game with the same treatment and love like this game, let alone created by a powerhouse like the studio behind Guilty Gear, this game is like a dream come true for Dragon Ball fans. Maybe if SS would have made it big in the states would could have gotten a SS game like this, maybe...

 

[GinoFelino]

ArcSys firing on all cylinders

If this plays anywhere near as solid as Rev2, this will be huge at EVO and a GOTY contender for sure

 

[PadWarrior]

I really hope they include different costumes for characters. Especially these two.

Yes please!

 

[mysteriousmage09]

Best Dragonball fighting game incoming.

 

[Skilletor]

Likely will be Guilty Gear style gatling combos I'm guessing.

I wonder if they'll do something similar to bursts, roman cancels, faultless defense, dust loops, etc.

Iuno, strings and homing dashes look super reminiscent of the 3DS DBZ game.

I would like to know button layout ASAP.

 

[FalsettoVibe]

Looks awesome!

 

[Playsage]

I hope Arale gets in the roster as some point

 

[PadWarrior]

Can't wait to see future trunks!

 

[Jashobeam]

DBZ isn't bigger than Marvel. No way, no how.

in terms of console video games maybe? Xenoverse games have sold quite well.

 

[Puruzi]

The burst mechanic in this game is called SPARKING!!! and works as burst and also xfactor (health recovery)

There's alt colors but there's a really high chance that there won't be alternate costumes

 

[Akiller]

Holy shit Gohan's intro at 2:13 in this video:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ii5u9aLtxk

LET'S GO!

That Vegeta win pose.

 

[patchday]

Holy shit another Saint Seiya fan here? I know those feels bro, we got Soldier's Soul winch was serviceable at best, but we will never a SS game with the same treatment and love like this game, let alone created by a powerhouse like the studio behind Guilty Gear, this game is like a dream come true for Dragon Ball fans. Maybe if SS would have made it big in the states would could have gotten a SS game like this, maybe...

yeah too bad SS didn't take off more here in the U.S. Been awhile since I've watched SS tho to be honest

 

[Psychological Intellect]

So hype man

Also hope regular ssj teen gonna is there.

 

[Lyonaz]

Damn, game looks amazing! Goku, Gohan and Goten team incoming!

 

[Kyleripman]

Oh my GOD you guys


Is this likely to be demanding on PC? My laptop is really starting to show its age but is still my preferred platform.

Quoting for new page, got stuck at the bottom. These threads move so fast!

 

[SunhiLegend]

 

[Omnistalgic]

I think it's cool that SS3 is jus part of one of Goku's supers. Would not want to see Gold Frieza vs. SSB Goku and all that. There are really enough DBZ characters to let everyone stand on their own base forms.

 

[NightwingRebirth]

Great, time to get into this while I eat breakfast.

Slightly unrelated, but I love how Gohan is just hanging back while Goku does all the hard work, lmao.

 

[trixx]

I think it would be even more interesting if was just based on Dragon Ball. Too many saiyans in the later parts

Dragon ball would've been cool as well but people probably want the transformations and stuff. Love Dragon Ball cast

 

[BackwardCap]

Based on the current character select screen I'd say the roster could fit 24 characters. That is of course assuming they don't change the scaling of anything.

 

[Piccoro]

The next big dream anime fighter would be JoJo done by ASW.

Do you guys remember the last time ASW used an anime license?

It was great!

 

[Risero]

Any word on the control scheme?

 

[Asd202]

Yasssssss.

Any word on the control scheme?

Game is playable at E3 we will know soon.

 

[J-Skee]

Dragon ball would've been cool as well but people probably want the transformations and stuff. Love Dragon Ball cast

I still want to see what someone like Tien could do in a game like this. Even Yamcha. He has really good techniques that could lend well in a fighting game, even if he's written off as a joke by this point.

 

[CountBlack]

They better add GT

 

[Karsha]

Do you guys remember the last time ASW used an anime license?

It was great!

This game was cool but it had only 10 characters and it was way too broken. Kinda sad that they didn't make a sequel to it

 

[XiaNaphryz]

Iuno, strings and homing dashes look super reminiscent of the 3DS DBZ game.

I would like to know button layout ASAP.

Don't forget that starting with Revelator the GG games also had an option to switch to a simplified button layout that also enabled auto-combos. Hopefully they go with that approach, so people can choose between Technical and Stylish/simplified.

 

[Armaly]

They better add GT

Nah, keep that trash away.

 

[Dario ff]

Nvm didn't see first page.

Looks pretty damn perfect.

 

[cLOUDo]

Great, time to get into this while I eat breakfast.

Slightly unrelated, but I love how Gohan is just hanging back while Goku does all the hard work, lmao.

and miss the kamehameha
LOL

 

[AllGamer]

They better add GT

Hell no. Keep that stuff out.

 

[Zalman]

Gameplay looks perfect, only content is in question now. Looking forward to seeing more character reveals. And I wonder what they will have of single player modes.

 

[Skilletor]

Don't forget that starting with Revelator the GG games also had an option to switch to a simplified button layout that also enabled auto-combos. Hopefully they go with that approach, so people can choose between Technical and Stylish/simplified.

Could be!

I'm glad it's playable so soon. Too many questions to be answered.

 

[Neoxon]

They better add GT

Yeah, no. OG, Z, & Super are enough (you know, the canon ones).

 

[PeterVenkman]

Can't believe this is happening. The more footage I see, the better it gets. Here just couldn't be a better pairing than ASW and DBZ.

Also just so pumped that their work on Unreal is getting this kind of audience. Guilty Gear is amazing but it doesn't get the same level of attention, and I've been freaking out about the art direction in XRD for awhile.

 

[Shin]

Great, time to get into this while I eat breakfast.

Slightly unrelated, but I love how Gohan is just hanging back while Goku does all the hard work, lmao.

He's looking badass as hell.

 

[sinkfla87]

As a non DBZ fan and a fan of Marvel I must say... Goodbye Marvel, Hello DBZ! Game looks AMAZING. I can't wait. I can see this being HUGE at Evo.

 

[pla-pla-place holder]

I know its a stretch but i hope gohan gets this alt costume

Found a better one

 

[NoctisVsStar]

The burst mechanic in this game is called SPARKING!!! and works as burst and also xfactor (health recovery)

For real? Sparking! That homage to cha la

 

[mentallyinept]

I'm sold already, even though I'll be dogshit at this game.

Hopefully they flesh out the roster with Piccolo, Adult\Mystic Gohan, SSB Goku, SSB Vegeta, Beerus, Future Trunks, Android 16\17\18, and Goten+Trunks double character insanity.

 

[LiK]

Maximilian is gonna be at E3 to play it so I'm excited for his impressions.
