Both characters were confirmed to be playable in Dragon Ball FighterZ earlier this week. According to Bandai Namco, both characters have their own respective fighting style and distinctive skills at their disposal in the game.

He has various ways to break the opponent’s guard and he can also fire fast and powerful beams. Players can charge up for a stronger attack by long-pressing the button. To create a huge blow, Piccolo can use his ability to release Ki blast from a range. For an effective strike, players will can even connect it with a combo move!
