Furthermore, Hiroki also revealed a new wave of tournaments is due to kick off later this year, with qualifying rounds starting in September. However, she separately ruled out any further improvements to FighterZ's netcode, saying it's “currently difficult”. As such, it's unlikely we'll see Rollback implementation anytime soon.
While it doesn't sound like this update will kick off Season 4 of Dragon Ball FighterZ, what's clear is that Bandai Namco's in it for the long haul. We'll keep you updated as we learn more but otherwise, series fans also have Dragon Ball Z Karakot's Switch release in September.
