This was first revealed in a special livestream announcing Season 3 on Bandai Namco’s YouTube channel, announcing that these additions will be arriving to the game on June 9.The Ginyu Forceis described as being a Team-type of Raider, where players can play as all five members of the dairy-inspired platoon based on their current level. At the first level, Guldo can use his Telekinesis or Time Freeze ability to halt survivor players in place, setting up for high damage. The second level is Recoome, where he can search for players on his scouter, while also having high damage output. The level 3 evolution sees Jeice and Burter teaming up to use combination attacks that provide AoE coverage.
To emphasize the Ginyu Force’s teamwork, players don’t permanently evolve into the next stage, but rather swap out to the next level, with the previous character they evolved from patrolling the area as an AI companion. If they find a survivor, they’ll immediately report to the player where they are, while also keeping them pinned down for the Raider player to finish off.Captain Ginyu’s own special skill is his iconic Body Changetechnique, where he can swap bodies with a Survivor to sabotage their skillset.
Players will also get a set of Survivor skins based on some of the relatively less powerful characters in the series. This includes the Namekian Dende, Goku’s afterlife mentor King Kai, and Fortuneteller Baba. The third season will also add three newtransphere characters, which includers Super Saiyan Bardock and Goten, along with Super Saiyan 2 Teen Gohan. Players can try out all of this new content in a Public Test Server in the game before its official inclusion later this June.
