Upcoming Dragon Ball FighterZ patch notes released
Nerfs incoming for Bardock and Android 16
Just last night we learned that a new balance patch would be coming to Dragon Ball FighterZ this week on Wednesday, November 28, and now we know what exactly the new update will entail.
Bandai Namco has now released the patch notes for tomorrow's update on their Japanese website, and Greatfernman has reportedly already translated them into English.
Goku, Vegeta, Piccolo, Teen Gohan, Frieza, Captain Ginyu, Trunks, Cell, Android 18, Gotenks, Krillin, Kid Buu, Majin Buu, Android 16, Yamcha, Tien, Adult Gohan, Super Saiyan Blue Goku, Super Saiyan Blue Vegeta, Beerus, Goku Black, Android 21, Bardock, Broly, Vegito Blue, Fused Zamasu, Base Form Goku, Base Form Vegeta, Android 17 and Cooler have all received adjustments along with other system-wide changes.
Bardock appears to have had the recovery after hitting his level three Revenger Assault increased and possibly moved farther away from the opponent so he can no longer get his often used mix up. Meanwhile, characters like Piccolo and Beerus look to have received some pretty nice buffs.
This update also adds in the previously announced Tenkaichi Budokai mode along with the online trophy room as well as preparations for the holiday-themed event that is scheduled to begin December 5 including new character colors and lobby avatars.
You can find the most notable changes made in this new update after the jump, but please note that these translations are not official and may differ from the final release.
