It may have taken longer than planned, butDragon Ball FighterZ’s FighterZ Pass 3 is moving toward its conclusion. Kefla, Ultra Instinct Goku, and Master Roshi are all currently available. Super Baby 2, the next fighter to joinDragon Ball FighterZis now confirmed to launch on January 15. That leaves just one more fighter for Bandai Namco to reveal, which it has now done. The final fighter inDragon Ball FigherZ’s FighterZ Pass 3 is none other than Gogeta, Super Saiyan 4.
Gogeta’s Super Saiyan 4 form was revealed as part of a new trailer released on Sunday by Bandai Namco. The trailer revealed the release date forSuper Baby 2, while also revealing new gameplay for the upcoming fighter. Gogeta was revealed at the end of a trailer in an exciting teaser. After Goku says, “I’m a bit strong than I was before,” a clip of both Super Saiyan 4 Goku and Super Saiyan 4 Vegeta are shown doing the fusion dance together to form Super Saiyan 4 Gogeta.

For those unfamiliar, Super Saiyan 4 Gogeta is a character exclusive to theTV showDragon Ball GT. Unlike mostDragon Balldesigns, this form was not created by series creator Akira Toriyama. Rather, it was made by Toei Animation character designer Katsuyoshi. That’s becauseDragon Ball GTisn’t official canon in the overarchingDragon Ballworld or story. It wasn’t based on the manga or Toriyama’s plans, but rather just an anime meant to continue the franchise past Toriyama’s works.
That said, Super Saiyan 4 Gogeta, as well as the otherSuper Saiyan 4 characters, is still very popular. The strength associated with the form is immense, plus it ties back heavily into the nature of the Saiyan race. As can be seen from Gogeta’s look, Super Saiyan 4 turns Saiyans into partial apes. It’s a reference to how these Saiyans have attained full control over their transformations into Great Apes when exposed to the Moon’s Blutz Waves.
Being such a powerful form, the only time Super Saiyan 4 Gogeta is seen inDragon Ball GTis when facing the show’s final villain,Omega Shenron. Super Saiyan 4 Gogeta is easily able to overpower Omega Shenron, though, befitting the show and both Goku and Vegeta, they fail to properly use it to defeat the villain. Super Saiyan 4 would later appear in video games includingDragon Ball Xenoverse,Dragon Ball Heroes,Budokai 3,Raging Blast, andTenkaichi Tag Team.
Bandai Namco is only willing to say that Super Saiyan 4 Gogeta is coming soon, though spring or summer 2021 seems like the most likely release windows. It’s something forDragon Ball FighterZplayers to look forward to.
Dragon Ball FighterZis available now on PC, PS4, Switch, and Xbox One.
