The Xbox Series X and PS5 versions of Dragon Ball FighterZ with rollback netcode are about to launch, with the date set for midnight local time on February 29, 2024. Owners of the PS4 and Xbox One version will be able to upgrade to the respective updated version for free, while PC players can download an update to use the new rollback netcode.
Perhaps one of the most exciting additions to the new versions is the use of rollback netcode, rather than delay-based netcode, which will also be made available in an update for PC versions of the game. Players on the Nintendo Switch, PS4, and Xbox One will unfortunately be stuck with the old system, however.
As the release is set for local time, some regions such as New Zealand will already have access to the new versions. Those who already own Dragon Ball FighterZ on PS4 will be able to upgrade to the PS5 version for free, while Xbox One players will be able to do the same for the Xbox Series X version. Bandai Namco has provided instructions on how to upgrade, as well as details on the rollback update, on its official site.
You can find the official announcement tweet below:
Dragon Ball FighterZ previously held a public beta to test out the rollback netcode capabilities back in late November, 2023. The game was also featured at the fighting game event Evo 2023.
The PS5 and Xbox Series X/S versions of Dragon Ball FighterZ will launch at midnight, local time, on February 29, 2024. The Rollback netcode update is available now for PC players.
