Following a seemingly-accidental video leak out of Taiwan, in conjunction with today’s July 2018 issue of Shueisha’s V-Jump magazine in Japan, Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan (“SSGSS” for short, or simply “Super Saiyan Blue”) Vegetto has been revealed for Dragon Ball FighterZ alongside the previously-announced Merged Zamasu.
Both characters are slated for release 31 May 2018, either individually (¥500/$5 each) or as part of the game’s optional $34.99 “FighterZ Pass” covering eight total characters. Vegetto will have a special “dramatic finish” when paired up and winning against Zamasu.
The 3-on-3, “2.5D” fighting game is developed by Arc System Works for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC (via Steam). The game runs at a 1080p resolution and 60fps frame rate, with higher resolutions available on the PlayStation 4 Pro and Xbox One X consoles, as well as the PC. Playable characters include Son Goku, Son Gohan (Cell arc design), Vegeta, Freeza, Cell, Boo (Good), Trunks, Piccolo, Kuririn, #16, #18 (with #17), Yamcha, Tenshinhan (with Chiaotzu), Ginyu (with teammates), Nappa (with Saibaimen), Gotenks, Son Gohan (Boo arc design), Boo (Pure), Hit, Beerus, and Goku Black (with Zamasu), as well as “Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan” (SSGSS, or “Super Saiyan Blue”) versions of Goku and Vegeta that can be accessed early via pre-orders or unlocked through gameplay. The Akira Toriyama-designed “#21” is a new character central to the game’s story mode. Broli and Bardock were the first two paid downloadable characters made available.
Dragon Ball FighterZ was released 26 January 2018 in North America and Europe, and 01 February 2018 in Japan. Alongside its Japanese release, Bandai Namco announced that they had shipped two million copies of the game, making it the fastest-shipping game in the franchise’s history.
Arc previously worked on Dragon Ball Z: Extreme Butōden for the Nintendo 3DS, as well as the Super Sonic Warriors games (Bukū Tōgeki and Bukū Ressen) on the Nintendo Game Boy Advance and Nintendo DS. The developer is otherwise known for their Guilty Gear and BlazBlue series of fighting games.

It’s strange while I prefer using SSGSS for Goku & Vegeta I do like using Vegetto Blue for him.
