The game is coming to PS5 and Xbox Series X|S, with a release date not yet announced. Upgrade will also be offered for free to those who have the PS4 and Xbox One versions of the game via the upgrade program or smart delivery.

On top of that, rollback netcode will also be implemented on these versions. Players on PC will also get to enjoy it, but it’ll be an option. Those who prefer the delay-based system will still be able to use it.

This is especially relevant considering that rollback netcode will have higher system requirements, albeit details have not been shared just yet.

Implementation will take some time, but Bandai Namco hopes to have it ready as soon as possible, with more information promised at a later date.

Incidentally, the tournament was won by French player Wawa, who defeated Nitro from the US.

Dragon Ball FighterZ is currently available for PS4, Xbox One, Switch, and PC.  We know that it has sold over 8 million copies as of November 2021 and this should explain why Bandai Namco is still supporting it.

Definitely a multi-platform gamer, he still holds the old dear PC nearest to his heart, while not disregarding any console on the market. RPGs (of any nationality), MMORPGs, and visual novels are his daily bread, but he enjoys almost every other genre, prominently racing simulators, action and sandbox games. He is also one of the few surviving fans on Earth of the flight simulator genre.
