DRAGON BALL FIGHTERZ Officially Launches on Nintendo Switch

Leading video game publisher and developer BANDAI NAMCO Entertainment America Inc. announced today that fighting games on the Nintendo Switch™ are about to go Super Saiyan, as DRAGON BALL FighterZ® officially arrives on the console in the Americas. Players can now experience all the action, drama, and over-the-top battles of the critically-acclaimed 2.5D arcade fighter while on-the-go.

DRAGON BALL FighterZ maximizes high-end anime graphics and now brings its easy to learn but difficult to master fighting gameplay to Nintendo Switch, joining the active community of fighters on the Xbox One, PlayStation®4, and PCs via STEAM®. The game includes some unique features on the Nintendo Switch platform, including simplified controls for single Joy-Con® play, 1 vs. 1 ad hoc play, 1 - 6 multi-player capability, lightning-fast 60 FPS gameplay powered by the Unreal Engine®4, and 3 vs. 3 tag/support allowing players to train and master more than one fighter/style.

“DRAGON BALL FighterZ has rocked both DRAGON BALL fans and gamers alike since its initial launch in January, and now, it’s time to rock Nintendo Switch players,” said Wilson Cheng, Senior Brand Manager at BANDAI NAMCO Entertainment America Inc. “We can’t wait to watch an all new audience experience the hard-hitting, fantastic Super Saiyan powers, and deadly rivalries on Nintendo’s ground-breaking portable platform.”

Players who pre-ordered DRAGON BALL FighterZ on Nintendo Switch will gain exclusive early access to SSGSS Goku & Vegeta, and the classic Japanese version of DRAGON BALL Z®: Super Butoden which debuted on the Super Famicom.
