All it took was five years post-release, four Evo appearances, and Wawa beating Nitro to win Evo 2022 after nearly four hours of continuous gameplay, but the Dragon Ball FighterZ community finally got its biggest collective victory—the promise of a rollback netcode update.
The news dropped at 2am PT right as the top eight players for DBFZ received their placement medals and the fighting game community (FGC) members who stayed behind to see the bracket through to the end were ready to pack up and bring Evo day two to a close. But, just before everyone left, DBFZ producer Tomoko Hiroki took the stage, bringing both bittersweet and yet incredible news to fans.
