Updated Battle Screen
- Updated the battle screen.
Selectable Z Assists
- Players can now choose from 3 assists for each character.
Limit-Breaking Power
- Health gauge changes when one character remains, and the character has the following effects. ① Increased damage output ② Ki gauge increases by one ③ Opponent's recoverable health is reduced on hit (except with invincible moves)
Adjustments to Instant Overheads
- All jumping attacks will no longer hit a crouching opponent when performed as the character is rising into the air (AKA instant overheads). - Characters blocking mid-air will be in a crouching state after landing. - When hit just before landing from a jump, characters will be in a grounded state rather than a mid-air state.
Advantage Gauge
- Added a gauge that displays health proportion for all members of a team.
Ki Charge
- Reduced recovery. - Can now deflect Ki Blasts. - Pressing the heavy attack button during a Ki Charge will now perform a Super Dash. - Ki Charge can now be continued for a set amount of time even when Ki gauge is maxed out.
Vanish
- Can now be canceled with a Special Move or Super Dash during camera shift.
Dragon Rush
- Made it easier to combo into when the opponent is taking damage mid-air. - Can now be performed after landing a standing light attack. - If landed in a combo, it can now be canceled after the attack with a Vanish. - The number of jumps and mid-air dashes available resets after a Dragon Rush break.
Dragon Rush (Forced Switch)
- When a switch is forced via Dragon Rush, the switch will occur faster than before. - Switch-in timing can now be manually controlled with a ← input after the forced switch.
Powered-up Special Moves
- They now only consume half a Ki gauge.
→ + Medium Attack
- While Sparking! is active, the character will no longer go over the opponent when the move is canceled into an air dash.
Standing/Crouching Heavy Attack
- Increased the move's damage during camera shift.
Jumping Heavy Attack
- Removed landing recovery during camera shift.
Guard Cancel Change
- Increased the attack level when clashed.
Z Assists
- Can no longer use another Z Assist until some time has passed after the opponent stops blocking. - Z Assists that blowback will always knock the opponent in the direction the Z Assist character is facing. - Adjusted where Z Assists appear.
Air Dash
- Made it possible to perform a simple air dash even when holding ↗ immediately after jumping.
Sub-Character Attacks
- Attacks hitting sub-characters such as Saibamen and the Ginyu Force can now be canceled.
Error Fixes
- Fixed an issue in which landing a certain way after an attack with landing recovery would cause that same recovery to occur on the next jump. - Fixed an issue in which performing an attack immediately after blocking would cause problems with the hurtbox during the following action. - For certain attacks that lock the opponent in place and trigger a cinematic sequence, the hitboxes are no longer active during the hitstop.
