After decades of hit and miss games, Arc System Works and Bandai Namco finally gave Dragon Ball fans the video game they always wished: Dragon Ball FighterZ.
FighterZ is considered not just one of the best Dragon Ball games ever, but also a truly fun fighting game that should stand the test of time.
Being geared towards online play, Dragon Ball FighterZ doesn’t feature any true game modifications.
Cosmetic mods, however, have been released aplenty. And here are the ones that deserve your attention (and your hard drive space) the most.
This mod introduces a brand new stage to the game. A stage that’s inspired by the little we have seen in the series of Planet Vegeta, the Saiyan home planet, as well as of the Tuffles and Plants races.
All of which have been annihilated by the Saiyans themselves.
Lacking outlines, the stage doesn’t look as good as the official ones. But there’s no better stage to set up a battle to the death between Bardock and Freeza, I assure you!
Seeing Goku Black in action was a real shock for me.
Seeing the gentle, caring Saiyan warrior behave so cruelly broke my heart… but then I broke his bones in FighterZ and all was well in the world again.
So imagine my shock when I found out someone made a Vegeta Black mod.
This mod, which is a recolor of Super Saiyan Blue Vegeta, comes complete with a custom Lobby Avatar, and a cruelness factor that’s over nine thousand!!
Ultra Instinct Goku is among the most powerful characters in Dragon Ball FighterZ.
But there’s something boring about him: a lack of decent costumes.
Modders have come to the rescue once again, and this Ultra Instinct Goku Costume Pack brings four different costumes that’ll make you look far more stylish as you obliterate an entire team with him alone.
Welp it’s time to beat up Freeza, Cell, and Android 21 to the sound of the groovy tunes of Marvel VS. Capcom 2.
Plus a select few from Capcom VS. SNK 2.
Replacing all of the music of Dragon Ball FighterZ, this mod takes some of its most bland tracks and blasts them off the planet and into the vastness of space.
Well worth giving this mod a try if you’re big into audio during your battles.
The Hyperbolic Time Chamber is one of the most iconic locations in the Dragon Ball universe.
And its absence in Dragon Ball FighterZ was a missed opportunity.
I mean, there couldn’t have been a more perfect location for a training stage!
This mod introduces the legendary location into the game, taking the place of the space stage.
Time continues to flow, weirdly. But you can unleash the full power of your team without having to worry about causing too much damage to your surroundings.
For being the Legendary Super Saiyan, Broly lacks a lot of transformations.
He doesn’t need them, you say? Wrong. Power is never enough.
This Broly SS4 mod introduces a brand new costume for Broly, allowing him to turn into the even more legendary Super Saiyan 4 that’s getting written out of canon more and more with each new show.
Spoiler: he doesn’t get a tail, so there’s no easy way out of this fight.
The bandit turned savior of Earth who sacrificed his own life to stop the Saiyans from getting it their way… but he doesn’t get much time to shine in Dragon Ball Z.
Yet in Dragon Ball FighterZ? Anything becomes possible.
The SSJ4 Yamcha mod is the costume mod that no one ever asked for, but that we sorely needed.
Turning Yamcha into a Super Saiyan 4, you can be sure he won’t be dumped by Bulma. Or get killed by a pathetic Saibaman. Hopefully.
Who doesn’t love a character that can transform during a match?
Super Saiyan Broly is a very simple mod that turns Dragon Ball Super Broly into a Super Saiyan for the rest of the match, once he successfully lands a Level 3 Super.
One more reason to use this special move, isn’t it?
Piccolo has stood beside Goku and the other Z Fighters countless times.
And he often made the difference, usually in exchange for his own well-being.
While the character doesn’t seem to receive much love in FighterZ (not surprising, considering he doesn’t have nine thousand different forms).
But the community loves him as much as they do all the Saiyans. And modders have given him a costume that pays some respect to all he’s been sacrificing to save the world.
Not bad, considering he once wanted to destroy it.
When Dragon Ball FighterZ got announced, I hoped Super Saiyan 3 Goku would be playable.
My hopes were dashed when the game released, only to see them restored with this mod!
I have to say that this mod is among the best costume mods ever made for the game, as it comes complete with fully working facial animations and hair movements too.
It easily makes the coolest Super Saiyan transformation even cooler.
And if you don’t agree with me, I can tell for certain, that you have very poor taste my friend.
