Dragon Ball FighterZ 1.21 Update Highlights

Dragon Ball FighterZ 1.21 update

This is a big update, but surprisingly, its file size is small, weighing in at little over 500 MB on PS4, at least. As stated above, the update brings with it a lot of gameplay changes and character balance updates. This includes the ability to choose between three Z Assists for each character before a fight begins. With it, too, however, is Kefla.

ALSO: Why the Xbox Series X teraflops aren’t too important

Kefla

If you have purchased the FighterZ Pass 3, you can download and play as Kefla from Wednesday, February 26. She’s something a bit different from the different versions of Goku we’ve been getting for a while now, so there’s that. Kefla will be available to purchase separately from February 28 if you don’t fancy forking over for the complete FighterZ Pass 3.

Gameplay Changes and New Features

Z Assists have been upgraded in the 1.21 update. You can now choose between three different Z Assists for each fighter in the character select screen. When you are on your last fighter, your damage will be increased, your Ki gauge will increase by one, and a hit to your opponent will reduce their recoverable health.

Plenty of smaller changes have taken place, too. You can now perform a Super Dash while performing a Ki Charge with a press of the heavy attack button, for example. Alongside these changes, tonnes of character adjustments have been made, too. This includes Goku (GT) who has had his Super Ultra Spirit Bomb attack damage reduced significantly. Check out the complete list of patch notes below to discover everything being fixed and changed.
