What characters do you think they can add for FighterZ 2?

Post by DBZAOTA482 » Sun May 24, 2020 2:11 pm

This game already has all the characters that we need and some, so I think Season 3 will be our last line of DLC. On top of that, one of the three remaining is already pretty much confirmed via datamine (Omega Shenron) while the other two are no-brainers (Master Roshi and Pikkon).

Now what can the sequel add in terms of new characters?

I'll start:

New Characters
Mr. Satan
Raditz
Dabura
Toppo
Caulifla (w/ Kale)
Moro
(if the DBS anime returns)

As for returning characters....
  • I believe everyone will be coming back for the sequel except #21 and possibly #16.
  • The DLC characters will remain DLC with some exceptions.
  • #18 (with the tracksuit as her default outfit) and Majin Buu (Mr. Buu) will be on the heroes/protagonists side. #18 will also receive a moveset overhaul.

Goku didn't die in GT. The show sucked him off so much, it was impossible to keep him in the world of the living, so he ascended beyond mortality.

I think Garlic Jr could provide for an interesting fighter. Using Spice Boys assists, his second form a la Golden Frieza and the black hole he summoned in the series, he could be very entertaining. However, he is Garlic Jr so he's obviously not developers first pick due to his filler status.

I'd love to see them add Future Zamasu. His immortality and regeneration could make for a unique mechanic (however I'm not sure how they'd make it work, just throwing out an idea).

Second thought, I think they will add Moro even if the anime doesn't come back. His arc in the manga would be long done by the time FighterZ 2 comes out.

The fact SSJ4 Goku is a part of GT Goku's ultimate and SSGSS Gogeta should be hints we're not getting any SSJ4 characters.

Before we get into characters, I'd like to see a full revamp of the game's core mechanics when we get a sequel. Guilty Gear STRIVE is by all accounts a huge departure from the Xrd subseries, so ArcSys are no stranger to majorly mixing things up with their fighting game sequels.

I've been pondering the idea of making an entirely OG Dragon Ball themed sequel (or prequel I guess) as I've been rereading the manga from the beginning. To make it, they'd have to ditch the super-dash mechanic entirely as most characters prior to Z can't fly. I think this mechanic is what's stopping iconic characters like Muten Roshi and Mr. Satan from being included as DLC to the current FighterZ. The only way Roshi could fly is if he had Baby Gamera as a mount, which would look hella awkward. However, high-flying action is what Dragon Ball is all about, though there's plenty of other ways they can recreate the kinds of epic battling without these mechanics.

In terms of characters, I've had a few ideas, but really I'm quite happy with the current roster. Not much more is even needed, as OP said. I'd like to see certain characters like Krillin and Piccolo revamped with more moves introduced in Super, like Krillin's 100x Taiyoken.
Roshi - Yeah, it goes without saying. His moveset can incorporate his unique techniques like his Thunder Shock attack, the Mafuba, and as his Level 3 he destroys the Moon with a MAX Kamehameha, sending shards of rock down on the opponent.
Imperfect Cell - I had some good ideas for how his moveset could be distinct from Perfect Cell. Of course, he'd incorporate his tail into a lot of attacks, and as a Level 3 he'd simply drain his opponent of all life force. He could also use the Makankosappo in midair.
Karin - A weird one, to be sure, but hey, I just finished rereading the RRA arc. The game needs more weird, wacky joke characters, dammit! Karin would be really challenging character to adapt, but he's got some sweet cane moves, the Zanzoken and I've heard that in some games he can summon lightning bolts from the heavens. As his Level 3, he forcefeeds the opponent the Ultra Divine Water.
Android 19 and 20 - I imagine them as a true tag-team character. You could swap out between 19 and 20 at will (the one you're currently not playing as will always be hovering in the background). Their fighting style of course revolves around absorbing energy.
Cabba - Yeah, there's not much Cabba can do that Vegeta can't, but he has a vertical Final Flash?
Tapion - Although I love Tapion, I'm not sure what they could really do to differentiate him from Trunks. Maybe he has a unique mechanic where he's constantly fighting off Hildegarn's influence, then eventually he unleashes him in his Level 3?
It was an offbeat idea that would never happen, but I was daydreamed a concept for a completely relaxed Farmer Goku who fights more like a gag character, throwing tractors and radishes at people. Going back to his roots, in a way. There's already way too many Gokus though.

There's actually a ton of characters I'd like to see added to the FighterZ series of games (which could make it in as Season 3 DLC, FighterZ 2 base game, FighterZ 2 DLC or even FighterZ 3).

SSJ4 Goku
SSJ4 Vegeta
SSJ4 Gogeta
Majin Vegeta
Kid Gohan
Raditz
Dodoria
Zarbon
King Cold
Dr. Gero
Android 19
Dabura
Super Buu
Hercule
Pikkon
Turles
Lord Slug
Super Android 13
Bojack (Full Power)
Tapion
Champa
Cabba
Ribrianne
Trio of Danger
Dispo
Top
King Piccolo
Majuub
Super Baby Vegeta 2
Super 17
Omega Shenron
Towa
Mira

Adding onto the characters that have already been released, plus the recently announced Roshi, this brings us to 74 characters.

Some characters that can be transformations:
SSJ2 & SSG Goku for SSJ Goku
SSJ2 & SSG Vegeta for SSJ Vegeta
SSB KK for SSB Goku
SSBE Vegeta for SSB Vegeta
Vegito and Gogeta would have base form by default, but can go to SSJ and even SSB in a single fight
Monster Form for Zarbon
Gohan Absorbed for Super Buu
SSJ & SSJ2 for Cabba
GoD for Top
Full Power for Jiren

Transforming plays a big role in Dragon Ball, so I do think that the games should reflect that. Would like to see more transformations in FighterZ. Unlike FighterZ 1, I do think transformations should play like in BT and RB, where you can freely transformation if you have enough ki (or revert back to another form).

I have a feeling they're not making FighterZ 2, not until the next anime sequel comes around. All of the current essential DLC are there, and they're still updating the game. They're not gonna pull a FIFA.
