Android 21 (Lab Coat) announces its release date with an explosive trailer

It doesn’t matter if Dragon Ball FighterZ’s fighter select screen is packed to the brim, Arc System Works still has characters left in the pipeline. In fact, the next addition is coming next week and it’s pure fan service: the android 21 returns to the game with his original outfit and the purpose of fill the screen with chaos and explosions.

Taking advantage of the context of Dragon Ball Games Battle Hour 2022the two-day event dedicated to bringing together all the news about current and future Dragon Ball games, has set the launch of the Androide 21 (Lab Coat) for the next one February 24th on all systems. The same Android 21 that was already in the game? Okay, not quite.

Starting, Android 21 (Lab Coat) is much more than a return to the original design of the character created by Akira Toriyama himself for Dragon Ball FighterZ: as you can see in her trailer, she is a fighter with its own repertoire of movementschains of combos and really devastating new supers.

From there, Tomoko Hiroki -producer of Dragon Ball FighterZ– has defined the style of Android 21 (Lab Coat) as a character very dynamic and capable of adapting to any situation through techniques that cover all distances, ideal resources to break guards and great resources for aerial combat.

According to Hiroki, Android 21 (Lab Coat) will be a fighter with an accessible style for all player profiles, including the less experienced, but also brings to the game and its competitive experience new tools that will delight the most experienced. We won’t be long in taking you at your word.

A new Fighters Pass in sight?

Although, the arrival of Android 21 (Lab Coat) to Dragon Ball FighterZ

is practically just around the corner, the truth is that neither prices nor new content related to the game have been specified. For reference, each of the additional fighters that have come to the game after its launch has been valued at 4.99 dollars. A little less if we are Game Pass subscribers.

While the currently available Android 21 is one of three unlockable characters from Dragon Ball FighterZ

(along with the Super Saiyan Blue versions of Goku and Vegeta) isn’t the first time we’ve seen an alternate version of someone who was already included in the game. There we have cases like Gogeta (SSB) and Gogeta (SS4) and previously Broly, the one from the 90s anime, and the Broly version (DBS) that premiered in the most recent film.

The curious thing is that these previous examples have one element in common: they have all been part of one of the three FighterZ Pass (fighters pass) of the game. And yet, the announcement and the arrival of Android 21 (Lab Coat) has not served to confirm that there is a fourth FighterZ Pass. At least for now.

However, when it comes to enlarging the current panel of fighters, it must be recognized that there are still heroes and villains who deserve a place in the game. From Raditz to Granola through Tao Pai Pai. And we do not want to rule out the entry of some of the new transformations of Goku and Vegeta shown since the Tournament of Power was held.

In any case, the commitment and express intention of Tomoko Hiroki and Arc System Works is to continue promoting the growth of Dragon Ball FighterZ and its community of gamers. And it must be admitted that both the arrival of new content and its landing on Game Pass are two successful ways to do it.
