If it's just DB Goku and they didn't want to model him in the orange gi, I'm okay with it.

GT still blows.

So many characters to draw from and yet we mostly get a bunch of Gokus.. What a waste of two seasons.

neither of them are Gokus
goku black a completely different character

Same character, different look, different moveset

If this is true, then yes.

It's literally Zamasu in Goku's body, so not actually wrong (can still use Kamehameha and Instant Transmission, though).

So.....basically goku controlled by Zamasu. Hence still a Goku

look i don't get to do the names

it's like super baby vegeta in GT who has nothing to do with the actual vegeta

Super Baby Vegeta aka Corrupted Vegeta

technically speaking it's more of a second zamasu if we get to the roots of it

Who controls the vessel of Goku. Next

No-no you see we don't get that ,enjoy this instead.


That theme is probably my favorite DB theme next to the Universe Tournament of Power theme

So, it appears that he indeed doesn't tap into SSJ4. If you are gonna put a GT character and its Goku, theres one feature you need to include. The only good thing that came from GT. And you didn't. Why?

It could be just Dragon Fist or Oozaru Fist though.
True, I did forget about Dragon Fist, but I feel like it would be pretty ridiculous to have a character called "Goku (GT)" without SSJ4 being present (even as a cinematic super).

In a better timeline we would just have Dragon Fist instead of the Spirit Bomb Level 3, but I guess we'll just have to see where Arc is going with this one.

I'm going with the first one. I don't expect the character to do any SSJ4 power up ala Golden Frieza (that would mean altering the character model completely). Maybe a Kamehameha x10, but thats it. Which its lame. I would rather have the Dragon Fist for Goku in child form

I applaud the devs for promoting the metaphysical discussion of what constitutes the nature of a goku

Ya know what? I wouldn't be surprised if we get Baby Vegeta, Copy Vegeta or Mahon Vegeta to balance out the Gokus.

Part of me is assuming this is to avoid making a pole moveset that would not resonate with how the game focuses on rushdown. I'm kinda disappointed considering I liked how Videl turned out moveset wise.

I distinctly remember someone involved in the development of XV2 mentioning that they weren't allowed to add original DB characters, so they added GT Kid Goku as a stopgap. I imagine this is the same thing.

Which begs the question of why no original DB?

They literally did it for Lowain in Granblue Versus with 3 playable forms for one character :

Same with Sol :

So they can make a playable SS4 for GT Goku, but they won't, it's better for Bamco to sell it separately.

Nice! I love GT Goku, one of my favorite goku (also the grandgrandgrandkid of goku in the anthology movie which wears these clothes is super cool). Is this coming to Switch?

Also, it's really strange that they don't show his "secret Lvl3" right now, I think it's the first time they do something like this for a character announcement.
So, maybe they are actually waiting to reveal Baby Vegeta or O.Shenron to show a SS4 Install or SS4 Super.
Goodbye sweet Kefla.

I think Kefla's chances of being included were dashed when the 90's Broly and DBS Broly were added.

Maybe the couldn't figure out how to make him fly? And making the nimbus wasn't worth the effort? Lol

He doesn't need to fly though, it's not like he's going to be hovering around in FighterZ. Making impossible thrusts and turns in the air already happens in the anime (like a sequence where Goku starts exchanging quick punches with Tenshinhan while dodging some without ever touching the ground, or the times he suddenly burst in high speed and disappeared in the middle of a jump). Like the post you quoted said, it's really sounding like Bandai for whatever reason outright ruled out characters from the original DB.

My thoughts exactly.
We know it's possible, it's just a matter of what mandate BanNam gave them.

Seriously, it'd be super cool to be able to use Goku or Vegeta and switch between transformations/stances on the fly like Zeku, Alisa or Sol over the course of a match.

The moveset better be focused on Kid Goku's moves from early DB rather than everything coming from GT but since he can transforms into SSJ3 I don't have much hope

Glad he's confirmed. GT Goku's underrated, his moves are dope and he's got this sense of style with him. DB Goku's alright but nah I wouldn't want him to be in a game like this or at least yet.

GT Goku will of course have DB Goku color scheme/additional alt. so it's almost the same person, IMO.
