Dragon Ball fans, get hype because even more characters have been confirmed for the roster of the upcoming Dragon Ball FighterZ title. The latest reveal comes courtesy of the V-Jump magazine and shows that Gotenks, Kid Buu, and Adult Gohan will all be playable fighters in the new game.

In addition to the new characters revealed, the magazine (scans courtesy of ShonenGamez and Gematsu) also shows off two other aspects of the game: the shop and the Arcade Mode. The shop will allow players to buy different skins and other in-game perks with Zeni, the title's currency. The Arcade Mode will let players show off what they are made of in battle against a predetermined amount of foes.

As far as character specifics, including individual stats, check out the scan's translation via V-Jump below:

Gotenks

  • Power: 3
  • Speed: 4
  • Reach: 1
  • Technique: 3
  • Energy: 4

Unleash special moves with extremely flashy names one after the next! Continuous attacks that put adults to shame, with powerful special moves that don't fail to live up to their name. Use the "Super Ghost Kamikaze Attack" to summon ghosts that deal damage upon impact. Use the Meteor special attack "Charging Ultra Buu Buu Volleyball" to imprison your opponent within multiple rings in the shape of a ball. From there, one of your team members will jump in and start playing volleyball. Finish it off with a spike! The scenes for some of Gotenks' special moves will change depending on the combination of team members.

Kid Buu

  • Power: 4
  • Speed: 4
  • Reach: 3
  • Technique: 4
  • Energy: 4

Kid Buu has tricky attacks that make use of his elastic body. Since he has both power and speed, he can be a troublesome foe. He has unpredictable movements, such as stretching into the shape of a ball. His Meteor special attack is "Planet Burst"—that attack that destroys the earth. The opponent stands no chance once it hits.

Adult Gohan

  • Power: 3
  • Speed: 4
  • Reach: 3
  • Technique: 4
  • Energy: 2

Borrowing the power of Old Kai, Gohan unlocked his potential. With special attacks, his abilities have significantly improved. Use all of the Ki Gauge to unlock your potential! Depending on the amount of the Ki Gauge consumed, the magnification of Gohan's abilities increase will change. Gohan's Meteor special attack is "Ultimate Kamehameha." Neither its power or number of hits can be compared to the regular Kamehameha.

Dragon Ball Fighter Z will be available on the Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC on January 26th for NA and EU, with a Japan release set for February 1st.
