Dragon Ball FighterZ, the 2.5D fighting game released by Bandai Namco in 2018, is finally available to Xbox Series S/X after the developers released a long-awaited update that makes it compatible with the two consoles.

The game is concomitantly released to Xbox Series S, X, and PlayStation 5 on February 29, and depending on where you’re located, you can access the game on these consoles at your local midnight hour.

Hailed as one of the best fighting games in recent history, Dragon Ball FighterZ was released to all major platforms, back in 2018, including Microsoft Windows, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4, and those who own the game already on Xbox One, and PlayStation 4 can get a free upgrade for Xbox Series S, and X, and PlayStation 5.

Plus, the upgrade also introduces the rollback netcode, which promises to greatly improve performance and reduce visual lag and stuttering in online matches.

Rollback netcode is a technique that reduces the input lag and visual stuttering that often plague online matches in fighting games. Unlike delay-based netcode, which waits for the synchronization of inputs between players, rollback netcode predicts the inputs and executes them immediately, then corrects any discrepancies later. This creates a smoother and more responsive gameplay that feels closer to offline play.

You can find out more about it by visitingthe official web pageof the game.

In Dragon Ball FighterZ, players can follow the story, but they can also engage in online matches with opponents around the world, in battles that are packed with quick and action-based combat.

However, if you’re planning on playing online matches with other Xbox players, you should be aware that you’ll no longer be able to play with other Xbox One players, from your upgraded Dragon Ball FighterZ, as Bandai states:
