With all the frenetic action, and screen-filling fireball and beam attacks in the new gameplay videos, it can be hard to pin down exactly what the special moves of characters are in Dragon Ball FighterZ. This can be somewhat confusing for players looking to learn more about the newly-revealed characters in the game.

For those who curious to learn about what the special moves of new characters Piccolo, Krillin, Trunks, Android 16, and Android 18 actually are in Dragon Ball FighterZ, this video from Super Best Friends Play’s Woolie is right up your alley. He shows the inputs of the moves, while also demonstrating them a few times, showing them in slow motion, and even explaining some of their properties. This reveals some things not immediately apparent from just watching videos — such as one of Android 18’s “Android 17 assist” moves acting as a counter only for assists, as well as her level 3 super changing when Krillin is on her team.

As some of you may know, Maximilian got a chance to try out the Gamescom build of Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite before at Capcom’s headquarters before the show itself. As part of this, he got the chance to record some of the staff and development team at Capcom playing the game.

In the footage below, Capcom’s staff is mostly playing the game with the newly announced characters (Ghost Rider, Jedah, Dormammu, and Firebrand). This should give us a clearer look at the abilities of these characters, with them in the hands of the people most intimately familiar with them — and the game in general — at this time.

With a new build of Dragon Ball FighterZ now being shown at Gamescom, Bandai Namco Games took some time out to host a livestream of the game. The stream features notable guests Maximilian Christiansen, noted Dragonball game video creator Rhymstyle, and Super Best Friends’ Woolie Madden.

For those who missed it, Bandai Namco Games has now shared the replay of the stream up on their YouTube channel.  The stream showcases the Gamescom build of the game, which puts a spotlight on the many changes that they’ve made since the previous build from E3. Of course, with all the guests, they naturally get into matches, taking the new characters out for a spin.

Bandai Namco brought Dragon Ball FighterZ to Gamescom, where they gave us a new trailer that showcases some of the franchise’s characters now coming to the game. Two of these are Android 16 and Android 18 — who we now get to see in action in some matches, thanks to IGN.

The video below from IGN actually shows most of the cast of the game in action, however particular focus is put towards the two Androids, showing off a bit of how they stack up compared to the rest of the cast. That said, we do also see some of both Piccolo and Krillin in action, as well.

After his initial reveal at Evo 2017, we now have more footage of Jedah Dohma as he appears in Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite. Being the first new Darkstalkers character added to the series since Marvel vs. Capcom 2, he’s naturally attracted a lot of attention.

For those wondering about how Jedah plays in Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite, Maximilian has shared a new video where he breaks down Jedah based on his hands-on time with him at Capcom HQ. He goes over some of his moves and tools, including his interesting air dash that can lead to double air dash mix-ups, while stating that he believes he’ll be strong in the game (possibly continuing the tradition of Jedah being strong in every fighting game he’s in, besides the one he originally comes from).

In addition to this, Max also points out the obvious visual change, with Jedah now using purple “goop” instead of blood — something Max attributes to the relationship with Marvel and Disney.

One of the more popular characters in the cast of Dragon Ball FighterZ — and the Dragon Ball franchise in general — is Trunks, the half-Saiyan warrior from the future. For fans of the purple-haired warrior, Maximilian has put out a new video that takes a closer look at Trunks as he appears in the Gamescom build of Dragon Ball FighterZ.

In the video below, Max goes over some of his combos, including both light and medium attack auto-combos, as well as his unique specials. More importantly, he goes over how he feels a bit more difficult to use than the characters in the E3 build, in part due to his lack options for adding damage in the air with meter. Beyond this, he also goes over some of his unique properties — including how he may be able to generate a lot of pressure when rushing his opponent down.

Additionally, he hints at how the game as a whole has changed from the E3 build, with some of the more abusable things in that build heavily changed.

As with the previous Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite footage Maximilian has uploaded from his time visiting Capcom at Gamescom, the video below features matches from the Gamescom build, but without any “new” characters shown at the event. That said, the video does showcase some characters who we haven’t seen much of in other videos. So anyone looking to see Arthur’s improved ground game, or Ryu’s grown man damage, should give the video below a watch.

With Gamescom now in swing, stay locked on to Shoryuken for more footage of the game.
