Bandai Namco has already announced that new characters will be coming soon to the game. The publisher revealed eight new fighters will arrive for Dragon Ball FighterZ, bringing the total number of playable characters to 32.
However, data miners have scoured the game since its release on Friday, Jan. 26 and have found the names of the new fighters.
Datamine Reveals DLC Characters, New Modes
Over at Resetera, member TDLink posted the names of the possible upcoming fighters and the list is quite impressive. The list includes classic characters like Base Vegeta, Base Goku, Bardock, Android 17, and Cooler, Frieza’s older brother.
Other characters possibly coming to Dragon Ball FighterZ include the Universe 10’s Supreme Kai apprentice Zamasu and the legendary super saiyan Broly. There is also the addition of the Goku and Vegeta fusion, Vegito.
Additionally, two new modes such as Z Union and Z League will be introduced to the game.There are no other details provided aside from the names, but players will likely hear something about the new modes soon.
Since it circulated the net, there has been a debate among players regarding the list and many believe this could just be the data miner's wishlist. However, the user made a few points that this is legitimate.
First, when asked if these listed characters were just avatars in the title, he responded that they are indeed avatars, although, they are avatars that have yet to make a game appearance. He went on to say that all characters in the game with two or more avatars are playable and non-playable characters don’t have multiple avatars.
However, as of this writing, Bandai Namco has not said a word about the data mined information pertaining to the game's upcoming DLC.
