https://youtu.be/TaGdEZ8I3IM
Highlighted in a new video, Fused Zamasu is born from the fusion of Goku Black and Future Zamasu through Potara earrings. Thanks to the Super Dragon Balls, Fused Zamasu has gained ultimate power and invincibility, making him the most devastating god of all time. His unlimited power also allows him to float in the air after his attacks and to move in any direction, making him a unique character to control. Divine Wrath, his Ultimate Attack, is a huge shot from his fingertip and is best used after a rush attack.

Today, BANDAI NAMCO Entertainment reveals the launch trailer of the first DLCs for DRAGON BALL FighterZ. https://youtu.be/Hs0ckT143v8 These DLCs will be available on March 28th. Broly and Bardock, two of the most iconic DRAGON BALL characters, will each be part of one of the DLCs and come up with five alternative outfit colors, a lobby avatar and a Z-Stamp.

Broly is one of the last survivors of Frieza’s attack on Planet Vegeta that eliminated almost all Saiyans. The Legendary Super Saiyan’s huge physique grants his attacks an impressive reach and enormous power. His Meteor Ultimate Attack Gigantic Meteor lets him hover over his opponent and instantly unleash a huge blast of energy.

The father of Radditz and Goku, Bardock has perfected his skills as a mighty warrior in numerous battles – a character that’s easy to learn but hard to master. Extending his combos takes skill, but his invincible and deadly rush attacks are extremely difficult to counter. His Meteor Ultimate Attack turns Bardock into a Super Saiyan, channeling the might of the mysterious alien race.

Both characters will also be part of the FighterZ Pass, which gathers a total of 8 new fighters. Broly and Bardock will each feature a highly dramatic scene which are shown in the new trailer.
