New gameplay footage is now out for Dragon Ball FighterZ, the upcoming fighting game currently in development by Arc System Works for PC and consoles.
The new footage, shared by Game Informer as part of this month's coverage of the game, showcases some new stages as well as Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan Goku and Vegeta and more.

Last month, our Dave had the chance to try out the game, noting how the game's variety of movement options and speed make for an exciting fighting game experience, despite an apparently simple button layout.
The simple button layout means combos for a lot of characters are similar and don’t require much research, though there are characters with unique attributes. Krillin, Piccolo, Buu and Android 16 all feel distinct, with their own combos and specials, whereas the Saiyans tend to feel like variations on one another, with different supers and assists being the main things to keep in mind to extend combos.
There’s a whole bunch of moves for each character that will make you feel like a Z Warrior. A heavy hit will knock opponents back and a homing chase move can be used to fly over to them and begin a combo – this can be used at the end of normal attack strings, and can even be continued or mixed up with a teleport cross-up that each character has. The variety of movement options that and speed are both true to Dragon Ball and make for an exciting fighting game experience.
Dragon Ball FighterZ launches this February on PC and consoles in all regions.
