Last weekend, Bandai Namco held an open beta for Dragon Ball FighterZ, but things didn't exactly go smoothly, with many issues that prevented players from finding matches. This open beta is now over, but it seems like the Japanese publisher will make up for it with a new open beta.

Earlier today, it's been confirmed on the Bandai Namco US Official Twitter profile that a new 24 hours long Dragon Ball FighterZ open beta is going to be held before release. A start date has yet to be confirmed.
