I posted my preferences before for the 8 dlc character but here's my prediction for what they actually will be, roughly in order of most to least likely:

Broly (seems almost guaranteed, popular and has a unique fighting style niche)
Vegito (seems very likely from popularity alone, wouldn't necessarily have a unique moveset but they want the dlc to make money and vegito would do it)
Kefla (only way I don't see kefla making it is if they decide to do caulfila and kale separately instead. A strong selection of moves and adds some female representation. I would love to see their rendition of the double christmas beam move. Bonus points if Goku has a finisher that involves kamehameha surfing it).
Bardock or Raditz (the design space for these characters don't seem too great but they are likely too popular to leave out. I doubt they would do both of them though due to the design space overlap, I would imagine Bardock is more likely than Raditz. However, if they actually do the rumored base form goku and vegeta (ugh...) then that makes them less likely I would think because at some point you would be filling a large amount of the dlc with similar characters and movesets).
Jiren (the only thing stopping Jiren is the realtive lack of fights and moves so far. Still, that just gives opportunity to be creative plus if Jiren was the last of the 8 to be designed, he will have probably had some more fights in the show by then anyways).
Master Roshi (seems much more likely due to his involvement in Super. Good opportunity for a creative moveset and style).
Kid Goku (the only OG or GT character I think has a serious shot to make it. Lots of opportunity for unique moves here, including a great ape transformation and fighting with a weapon).
Mr. Satan or Videl (Adapting these into the game might be difficult due to the lack of blasts, but it seems like an opportunity to make a grappling/throw character and it shouldn't be too hard to make happen. I doubt both would be added since they would veer to the same playstyle niche. Mr. Satan seems more likely because of popularity although Videl does allow an opportunity for one of the very few female characters).
Goku Ultra Instinct (I don't know how difficult it would be to incorporate the idea of UI into the game, but if they could make it work it they'd probably include it. Because of that, this should maybe be higher honestly).
Whis (I don't think it's too likely but the popularity and room for a unique play style is there)

Finally a list of characters that are possibilities but I'd consider to be a long-shot because they either aren't popular enough or are already represented in other ways (I could see some of these in a DBFZ 2 as a lot of them have unique attacks and play styles that could be explored...): Zarbon, Android 17, Dr. Gero, Dabura, Super Buu, Fused Zamasu, Toppo, Cooler, Janemba, SSJ4.

I just want anyone other than CC2 to make Jojo games. They're excellent at fanservice, but like the making a good game part is where they stumble.

Asuras is cool

Hit is already a character who doesn't have a standard blast or projectile of any kind.

Momomo posted:

He used the projectile punches against Goku in that one miniarc that Toriyama probably had nothing to do with.

Chaotic Flame posted:

I love Whis' design and would love if he was playable.

CC2 has made good games.

But none of those are the Jojo games they've made.

You don't think I know that?! Man can dream.

Chaotic Flame posted:

Maybe we'll see a future DBZ x GG game since they're in the same engine.

IcePhoenix posted:

Whis' moveset would just all be dodges and blocks and you automatically win if time runs out.

Piccolo used to have the elbow as an assist, right?

So both Gohans have an invincible defensive assist. Which means unless someone else has some weird property that isn't immediately apparent those two just straight up have the best assists hands down.

If your main has a dp you dont need a second so a different assist would be better

What are the psylocke, captain commando, and cyclops assist equivalents in this game thanks

My perfect scenario is for this game to start them down the same path Capcom had with their VS series. DBZxGG would be like X-Men vs Street Fighter. Keep building upon that until you get to something like Shonen Jump x Arc System Works.

the assists in this game look less powerful than mvc3 and mvc2 which is kind of a bummer tbh because you can't even do them as often
