November free update and patch note for Dragon Ball FighterZ

DRAGON BALL FighterZ receives today a host of free updates and a new adjustment patch on Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch and PC via STEAM.

 

FighterZ Tournament is a new, online tournament mode featuring various new match rules, culminating in a final 8-player bracket. The winners and runners-up in each tournament will receive special rewards and Z Trophies, the latter of which players can display in their all-new Z Trophy Room.

 

Z Trophy Rooms, the second new feature, are unique to each player, and can be decorated with the Z Trophies that they collect, as well as with Lobby Avatars. Players can also change the background music. Players can then visit the Z Trophy Rooms of their friends – or show off their collection to their own guests.

 

The list of adjustments applied to the game is listed below (English only):
