Dragon Ball FigtherZ is a 2.5D fighting game developed by Arc System Works and published by Bandai Namco where characters from the popular Dragon Ball universe fight each other. Unlike the previous Dragon Ball games, FighterZ uses the Tag Battle mechanics. We create a team of three different characters between which we can switch anytime we want to when fighting. Doing so allows us to execute powerful combos and special attacks.

PC Gamer: 83 / 100 by Nathan Brown
Accessible yet complex, chaotic yet beautiful, this is the real fighting game deal.
IGN: 8.5 / 10 by Mitchell Saltzman
Between the accessible auto combos, homing attacks, and simplified command inputs, Dragon Ball FighterZ is an inviting gateway into the world of fighting games for newcomers — whether you're a Dragon Ball fan or not. Those easy controls can open the door to some spammy behavior, but just as often it's satisfying in a way that does right by the Dragon Ball name. Dragon Ball FighterZ has enough depth and complexity to glow as brilliantly as a Super Saiyan.
Eurogamer: by Wesley Yin-Poole
Dragon Ball FighterZ is a fantastic fighting game, and worth playing whether you're into Dragon Ball and fighters or not.

Dragon Ball FighterZ Description
Dragon Ball FighterZ for PC, PS4 and XONE is a fighter game where characters from the popular Dragon Ball manga (created by Akira Toriyama) fight against each other. It was developed by the experienced Japanese studio Arc System works (creators of Guilty Gear and BlazBlue fighting game series) and published by Bandai Namco.
Mechanics
Dragon Ball FighterZ for PC, PS4 and XONE uses the Tag Battle mechanics known from Marvel vs. Capcom and Tekken Tag Tournament series. We begin with the creation of a team of three characters. When in combat, we can switch between them in order to do powerful combo strikes and special attacks. The fight ends when all of our characters are left with zero health points.
Technical Aspects
Dragon Ball FighterZ for PC, PS4 and XONE uses the same 3D technology as the newest installments of Guilty Gear series. Combat takes place on 2D arenas, but all elements of the game were created in 3D. It allowed the developers to use advanced graphical effects and stylized animations to make the game look like the classic anime.
