Here's Gotenks in Dragon Ball FighterZ

Super Ghost Kamikaze Attack!

The drip-feed of character reveals for Dragon Ball FighterZ continues. This time we have confirmation of three new characters for the promising-looking fighting game.

Publisher Bandai Namco announced Gotenks, Gohan (Adult) and Kid Buu will be in the game from launch. Here's the official blurb:

"Gotenks has a short reach but rapid movements such as the Super Ghost Kamikaze Attack.

"Gohan (Adult) can change the outcome of the fight by unleashing his ultimate ability mid-game to unlock his true power!

"Kid Buu with his high speed and power, is an expert for tricky attacks. He can stretch his arm, so reach should never be a problem!"

The video below shows off Gotenks gameplay.

Meanwhile, Bandai Namco has detailed the Dragon Ball FighterZ arcade mode. In it three courses are available. Once you complete a course hard mode is unlocked. You collect Zeni points as you play battles and use them to unlock alternative colours for the playable characters and buy items from the in-game shop.

Dragon Ball FighterZ, which is developed by Guilty Gear and BlazBlue maker Arc System Works, comes out on 26th January 2018 for PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
