Why is Goku Super Saiyan 4 such a big surprise?

Goku SSJ4 is a character that has been highly requested by fans for a long time, representing one of the most unique and powerful transformations of Goku in the GT series. The developers' decision to bring this character into the game after previous DLC seasons had concluded is seen as a clear sign that Bandai Namco and Arc System Works still have a strong passion for DBFZ.

  • Power of nostalgia: The SSJ4 state always holds a special appeal for 8x and 9x generation fans.
  • New gameplay: With his signature skill set, Goku SSJ4 promises to bring a completely new playstyle that will potentially change the current game meta.
  • Signal of revival: New DLC often comes with major balance patches, bug fixes, and possibly a new eSports tournament, signaling a strong "revival" for the game.

Details about the character Goku Super Saiyan 4 (Expected)

While detailed information about his moveset is still being gradually revealed, fans can expect:

  1. Signature abilities: Attacks based on the power of the Golden Great Ape and moves from GT like Kamehameha 10x (10x Kamehameha) or Dragon Fist (Long Quyền).
  2. Design & Animation: Given Arc System Works' reputation, Goku SSJ4 is sure to feature spectacular Super Move (ultimate move) animations, perfectly recreating the classic moments.
  3. Role in the team: He will most likely be a character with strong rushdown and high damage output capabilities (Rushdown/Power Character), requiring good control skills to maximize effectiveness.
