Dragon Ball FighterZ Super Baby 2 & Gogeta (SS4) Add More GT Representation

Dragon Ball FighterZ Super Baby 2 & Gogeta (SS4) Add More GT Representation

Dragon Ball FighterZ's newest DLC brings classic GT characters Super Baby 2 and SS4 Gogeta to Arc System Works’ hit anime fighter next month.

Dragon Ball FighterZ Super Baby 2 & Gogeta (SS4) Add More GT Representation

A pair of new warriors are coming to Dragon Ball FighterZ soon, coming from the most unexpected of sources: the often forgotten and under-appreciated Dragon Ball GT. Bandai Namco and Arc System Works’ love letter to Dragon Ball has been praised by anime and fighting game fans alike for featuring blistering action and a wide cast of characters that has only grown since the game first launched back in 2018, quickly becoming one of the bestselling titles in the long and storied Japanese franchise's gaming ventures.

The ongoing wave of DLC characters for Dragon Ball FighterZ began with beloved Dragon Ball movie characters, like Goku’s father Bardock and the monstrous Broly (in both his original and Dragon Ball Super incarnations), and it has since greatly expanded to include the likes of the evil Jiren, the heroic Vida, and the powerful Super Saiyan Blue Gogeta. The most recent addition to the game’s roster was the wise-but-perverted Master Roshi back in September, and it appears things aren’t slowing down anytime soon for one of Arc System Works’ biggest fighting titles to date.

Earlier today, Bandai Namco released a new Dragon Ball FighterZ DLC trailer on YouTube, revealing the game’s latest additional character: Super Baby 2. It begins with the parasitic Baby taking over Vegeta and transforming into his dreaded Super 2 form, working up to showing off his wide range of attacks before revealing his Ultimate Move: transforming into a massive Great Golden Ape and annihilating the entire arena. The trailer then cuts to a list of previously released fighters in the FighterZ Pass 3 line-up, like Kefla, Basic Instinct Goku, and the aforementioned Master Roshi before revealing another new warrior: Super Saiyan 4 Gogeta, whose arrival is heralded by a brief scene of SS4 Goku and Vegeta fusing. Players will be able to play as Super Baby 2 on January 15, 2021, and SS4 Gogeta will come to the game at a yet-to-be-revealed time.

For the uninitiated, both Super Baby 2 and SS4 Gogeta originate from the Dragon Ball GT spin-off anime, which aired in the mid-to-late ‘90s. Set after the events of Dragon Ball Z, GT features series protagonist Goku being de-aged to his child incarnation from the original Dragon Ball series and setting off on a new string of adventures alongside his granddaughter Pan and longtime time-traveling ally Trunks. One of these adventures brings the heroes into conflict with Baby, a wicked parasite bent on ridding the universe of Saiyans with his ability to take over the bodies of other warriors, as shown with Vegeta in the Dragon Ball FighterZ DLC trailer.

Dragon Ball GT isn't held in the highest regard among Dragon Ball fans and was even rendered non-canon with the advent of Dragon Ball Super a few years ago. It's therefore quite a surprise that Bandai Namco and Arc System Works are bringing a few of its most noteworthy characters into Dragon Ball FighterZ. Still, regardless of how fans feel regarding their execution in their home series, Super Baby 2 and SS4 Gogeta have some interesting moves and abilities that could translate to some fun fights, and their inclusion is a testament to just how much the developers are fans of Dragon Ball in all of its various incarnations.

Dragon Ball 5 Anime Characters That Could Defeat Jiren (& 5 Who Wouldnt Stand A Chance)

Dragon Ball 5 Anime Characters That Could Defeat Jiren (& 5 Who Wouldnt Stand A Chance) Jiren from Dragon Ball Super is one powerful warrior but in a fight vs anime characters like Jotaro, All Might & Arceus from Pokemon? How does he do? Few Dragon Ball antagonists have been as threatening as Jiren. No doubt, there’s plenty who’ve done some pretty terrifying things, like how Nappa tore through the Z Fighters or how Freiza blew up Namek. But Jiren faced down Goku going Super Saiyan and shrugged it off. He shut down Kale after she went into her Legendary Super Saiyan mode. Beating him took the combined efforts of Goku, Frieza, and Android 17. But just because he’s that powerful, doesn’t mean he isn’t capable of getting laid out. This list takes a look at five anime characters who could take Jiren down without a second thought, and five who would get beaten without Jiren even putting in effort. 10 DOESN'T STAND A CHANCE: ICHIGO Ichigo is the truth.

Dragon Ball 5 Fan Theories That Make No Sense (& 5 That Do)

Dragon Ball 5 Fan Theories That Make No Sense (& 5 That Do) Dragon Ball spawns a lot of fan theories from fans. While some fan theories involving Broly make sense, others with Frieza and Goku don't make sense. The Dragon Ball franchise is undoubtedly one of the most popular anime series around without a shadow of a doubt. Dragon Ball Z is a major reason why Japanese media managed to break into the Western mainstream, while Dragon Ball Super is a prime example of just how popular the series has proven to be, releasing almost two decades after its legendary predecessor finished its run. Truly, there is no anime that has reached the heights of Dragon Ball in popularity. The series is also notable for its rabid fanbase, latching onto any small hint — intentional or otherwise — and forming ostentatious and wild fan theories that are equal parts incredible and unbelievable. Out of the sheer wealth of fan theories available on the interwebs, there are 5 that are so ridiculous to the l...
