The next fighter in the Dragon Ball FighterZ season pass has been revealed to be the Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan (SSGSS) Gogeta. The character, a fusion form of Goku and Vegeta, makes his way into the game, and looks to make a big impact, which is appropriate considering he's one of the most powerful characters within the entire Dragon Ball universe.

Gogeta will have both Stardust Breaker and Ultimate Kamehameha as special attacks. He marks the fifth DLC character in the Season 2 Pass for the game, following GT Goku, Janemba, Jiren, and Videl. Developer Arc System Works has already indicated that the final DLC character will be the Dragon Ball Super version of Broly, the Legendary Super Saiyan.

For the unfamiliar, Gogeta is the result of Vegeta and Goku using the Fusion Dance and was first introduced in Rebirth of Fusion. In that story, Janemba takes the place of the main villain. As Gogeta states in the reveal trailer above, he is more powerful than both individuals combined. Both Goku and Vegeta were outmatched by Janemba and a fusion was the pair’s only hope for survival.

Dragon Ball FighterZ has a strong start when it was initially released in January of 2018 but has since seen a fall off in popularity. It is still a popular game in the gaming community, but it went from being the number one registered game at competitive events to around number seven. The implementation of cross-play between the Xbox One, PC, PlayStation 4, and the Nintendo Switch would be a great way to ensure that the online community remains healthy for online play. Sony has been against implementing this, so we are not likely to see it anytime soon.

Still, there is a vibrant esports scene with outstanding competitors. Evo 2019 took place less than two months ago and saw an exciting rematch between Goichi “GO1” Kishida and Dominique “SonicFox” McLean. These competitors had faced off in 2018, with SonicFox taking the title, and this year, GO1 came out on top. Their match below marks the best Dragon Ball FighterZ play in the world.

The big question now is how the new character will affect the meta within the competitive scene. It's no secret that the roster of players at the highest levels of play has been consistent for some time, with no major surprises or shake-ups in sight. Gogeta might be the perfect character to shake things up!

Gogeta is set to release on September 26. Players who have already purchased the FighterZ Pass 2 should have access to the new character right away, and those that do not can still purchase it, or the individual character for $4.99.
