Despite his age, Master Roshi doesn’t stray from the high octane action that has madeDragon Ball FighterZa favorite with fighting game players. The main visual treat will be the sudden transformations of Master Roshi into his bulkier “Max Power” form which brings the heavy hits. Beyond that, the trailer displays a lot of the tricks andabilities Master Roshi has from the seriesto take down his opponent.
What is even more charming is that despite showing off the immense power behind the seemingly brittle frame, Master Roshi is still the goofball fans fell in love with in the originalDragon Ball. The Master to Goku and Krillin still ends his fights with the same wild giddiness the character is known for. Both Krillin and Goku acknowledge the treat it is to battle with the Master Roshi, something that fans can relate to for the heavily requested character.
Master Roshi releases as the third combatant forFighterZPass 3, meaning that there are still two spots remaining for the third season of characters. The two previous entrants where fan favorite Kefla fromDragon Ball Superand another Goku variant with Ultra Instinct Goku. With only two fighters remaining, fans are still attempting to figure out who is left from the massiveDragon Ballcast to join the fray. Based on the color scheme of the character vignettes, somepredictions point to Pikkon joiningDragon Ball FighterZas the forth character of this season.
DespiteDragon Ball FighterZinitially releasing in January of 2018, the anime fighter is still one of the most popular today with both players and viewers. It was alongside the Master Roshi gameplay reveal that Bandai Namco confirmed the next steps for theDragon Ball FighterZcompetitive scene including new tournaments and balances.
