That's how all fighters are nowadays.
Most of the recent "big" fighters are not like: Street Fighter V, Tekken 6, Mortal Kombat X, Killer Instinct, Injustice 2... They all go with character seasons for years. Sometimes there are rereleases with all DLCs included, but you don't have to buy them again, if you picked up the base game + the DLCs already.

Happy to see that Beerus, Hit, and Black are basically confirmed. Even if you don't like these characters because they're from Super, you've gotta admit that it's probably gonna be really fun playing both of them, especially Hit. Can't wait to see how he's handled.

Well, according to info laid out in the Forum, I`ve read that what Toryama considers as mostly proper in his mind is his Manga, the Anime and Super.

Nobody is wrong in defending Broly but way I see it, they took a look and fighting style associated with him and shaped it into a new character whose personality doesn`t revolve around a crying baby, disregarding whether she`s particular amazing as personality goes or not. That to me tells me they don`t regard the character of Broly with any remarking status. In a fighting game that may (key word) appeal to the franchise`s most recent additions who also happen to already have their fans, they may be interested in give us another female figther amid the crowd of guys. The fighting game community of today its more balanced in gender appeal than it`s ever been.

In my opinion, in more than one way, Broly has become redunctant in context. A good deal of you probably won`t agree, but I`m happy to agree to disagree.

I'm happy Rosé, Hit, and Beerus are the three from Super they chose. I think they'll be fun to play; can't wait to see their color variants.
On hiatus.

Can`t deny it, really happy with the new additions, mostly Hit and Beerus. If Hit goes as I think he goes, I`m adding him instantly in my squad of Strikers. Perhaps even in my initial trio.

Basically confirmed, although not officially. I see no other reason why they would be in that screenshot.

My guess is Zamasu will fight with Black. Then maybe Merged Zamasu can be his own character in DLC.

I am just looking at it from a different standpoint. Kale is a rather recent character, but Broly has longevity. Who knows? The developers were probably going to add Broly from the start. If Dragon Ball Heroes has taught us anything, it is this formula:

So you must be new to the games of Dragon Ball. Because not only Broly debut in a video game in the same year his movie appeared, he has been heavily marketed since forever. Dragon Ball Heroes just continues what everyone has done in the past.

... No? Is just some of you are acting as if Broly IS NOT going to marketed in the future since Kale appeared.

We don't even have a confirmation that UI Goku will be there, it doesn't make any sense to have UI Vegeta when he didn't even made his debut in the series yet.

Guys videogames have a 1.5-2 year development time, stuff happening in Super NOW in the TOP arc wasn't even conceived when this game began development. We definitely aren't going past Goku Black with the base roster.

Anything else would be DLC.

Buu's winning pose references the Zen Exhibition Matches I think... But even that was a year ago.

It's all about V-Jump and Jump Festa this week. Since it's the last big event before the game comes out, I expect them to go big and reveal the rest of characters in that trailer.
A world without Dragon Ball is just boring.

i think it would be cool to give Rose a blond haired variant (basically SS1) giving a slight nod to the manga.

It'll be a real shame if most characters don't have proper color variants. Give Ultimate Gohan a Super Saiyan variant, make Piccolo darker shades of green like other Nameks, change Goku's gi to blue, etc.

Wait a minute,color variant only affects the wardrobe not the hair and honestly the super manga will never be referenced in games.
    Hit,Black and Beerus totally deserved their spot in the roster so i will be extremely happy if i see the game play trailer of those three.
