Mastering the basic controls is your first step to becoming a formidable fighter. Dragon Ball FighterZ utilizes a simplified control scheme compared to many traditional fighting games, making it accessible yet deep. You'll primarily use four attack buttons: Light (L), Medium (M), Heavy (H), and Special (S). Movement is handled with the directional input or analog stick. Learn to combine these for devastating combos.
- Light Attack (L): Quick, low damage, often used for combo starters.
- Medium Attack (M): Balanced speed and damage, good for extending combos.
- Heavy Attack (H): Slow, high damage, often used for combo finishers or launching opponents.
- Special Attack (S): Projectiles, unique character abilities, and ki blasts.
- Super Dash (R2/RT): Closes distance quickly and tracks opponents.
- Vanish (L2/LT): Teleports behind opponent, costs 1 bar of Ki.
- Dragon Rush (L1/LB): Unblockable grab, initiates a cinematic combo.
- Sparking Blast (R1/RB): Powerful comeback mechanic, enhances damage and recovers health.
