That seems more than a little unnecessary and a waste of a
GT slot, (did Hell Fighter 17 even do anything of note?), but it adds credence to the idea that Kibito will be a separate character in this game as well.
I mean it's not really a waste as it's DLC
Only thing I can think of is when 17 killed Krillin before fusing with an energy blast

Wasn’t regular 17 the one who did that?

Some people on social media are saying we'll be able to select #17 twice (like how cell jrs can be selected 5 times) and fuse them, rather than a completely new 17 being added; it'll just be another outfit.

Awesome, that actually makes sense. 17 in GT was basically the Z character and hell fighter his clone, somewhat created in hell from nothing with biomutant technology…
Costume with fusion option is cool.

What I understand is Hell 17 is a character, but so would be Super 17 because every character is playable and not just accessible through fusion mid-fight. I think it's just probably to help with the DPs, but we'll see.
Also, if they are giving a slot to a nothing character like Hell 17, then I'm thinking, eventually, more important GT characters, that are usually snubbed like Rildo or the base saiyans will join the game.
