Dragon Ball FighterZ Closed Beta Dates Announced

Earlier in the month Bandai Namco Entertainment announced that Dragon Ball FighterZ, a 2.5D sprite-based fighting game based upon the Dragon Ball franchise for the Xbox One, PS4 & PC, would receive a closed beta event later this year. Well today the publisher have confirmed which dates the beta test will take place; and it is a bit more ‘restrictive’ than one would’ve first thought.

Taking place on the 16th September 2017 and 17th September 2017 the Dragon Ball FighterZ Closed Beta test will only be opened for a limited period of time, much like Nintendo’s recent ARMS and Splatoon 2 Stress Tests. As part of the Closed Beta test players will be able to select from nine different fighters, in this case Super Saiyan Goku, Super Saiyan Vegeta, Super Saiyan Teen Gohan, Super Saiyan (Future) Trunks, Frieza, Cell, Majin Buu, Piccolo and Krillin at four different times during the two day event.

The times are as follows:

1st Session- > 10:00am – 13:00pm (Saturday)

2nd Session -> 18:00pm – 21:00pm (Saturday)

3rd Session -> 2:00am – 5:00am (Sunday)

4th Session-> 21:00pm – 00:00am  (Sunday/Monday)

In addition to the Closed Beta dates Bandai Namco Entertainment went on to explain that sign-ups for the Closed Beta test have also been moved to the 22nd August 2017; afterwhich those eager to take part in the beta test will be able to register their interest.

Dragon Ball FighterZ is in development for the PS4, Xbox One and PC and is planned for release during early 2018.
