Plus 13 minutes of new gameplay footage with Piccolo, Krillin, Trunks and the Androids

IGN was able to sit down with three members of the Dragon Ball FighterZ management team, Mathieu Van Kemenade, Gary Gillet and Marcello Carlino, to discuss the newest reveals for the highly anticipated fighter.

During this interview we learn a few interesting tidbits about both gameplay and user experience.

The team stresses DBF's faithfulness to the original show, specifically in attention to character tendencies as well as movements. Fans will be happy to hear that Japanese and English voice actors from the actual Dragon Ball series return in the game.

During the 3v3 online play, players will communicate with each other via ready-made messages. These include prompts to tag out, criticisms, compliments and more.

"We don't want to impose the game on the FGC," mentions Kemenade. "We want to let them play and enjoy it, and gain some grass root legitimacy with them." Needless to say, "excited" is an understatement for the FGC's current sentiment toward this title.

There's quite a bit to this interview, which is also laced with new character gameplay. Here's a clip which shows Android 16 destroying Piccolo with a mean grab Super:
