The developers of Dragon Ball FighterZ have stated a big fix will be coming to the game to address the issues introduced with its new rollback netcode. Near the end of February, a new update for Dragon Ball FighterZ added rollback netcode to almost all versions of the game, with the Switch version being the only exception. Dragon Ball FighterZ's PS5 and Xbox Series X/S versions were released the same day as this update. While the rollback netcode was meant to improve the online environment of Dragon Ball FighterZ, fans have found the update has broken the game instead.

Nearly 50 talented artists recently joined together to create an amazing mural in tribute to the late Dragon Ball creator Akira Toriyama. Earlier this month, fans of anime and gaming alike were saddened by the heartbreaking news that Toriyama had passed away from acute subdural hematoma at age 68. Dragon Ball itself has spawned countless video games, but Akira Toriyama also had a hand in creating legendary titles like Chrono Trigger and the Dragon Quest series, and numerous other franchises like Sonic the Hedgehog have drawn influence from his work.
In the weeks since Akira Toriyama’s passing, fans all around the world have shared their condolences and paid tribute to the beloved artist and writer. Yasushi Yamaguchi, character designer for Sonic the Hedgehog 2, honored Toriyama by sharing stories of how Dragon Ball influenced the relationships between Sonic and his friends. Meanwhile, Final Fantasy 14 players held in-game vigils for Toriyama, and fans of Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 held their own memorial for the creator who inspired so many anime and video game stories.
Now Dragon Ball fans in Peru have come together to create their own homage to the legendary Akira Toriyama in the form of a massive mural, as reported by Sportskeeda. Over 45 artists worked on this commemorative painting, which is 110 meters long and 6 meters high and features a black-and-white portrait of Toriyama surrounded by over 70 different Dragon Ball characters including Goku, Piccolo, Gohan, Vegeta, and countless others. Images and footage of the mural are being shared on social media outlets like Twitter and Instagram, with commenters giving thanks to Toriyama and everything that he created.
Akira Toriyama's legacy is still being carried on through various projects inspired by his work. Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero, the long-awaited next installment of the beloved Budokai Tenkaichi series, is set to release sometime later this year, and a recent update from Bandai Namco has some players guessing that an exact launch date could be announced soon. Meanwhile, an anime adaptation of Sand Land, a manga created by Toriyama in the 2000s, is currently streaming on Disney Plus and Hulu.
The impact Akira Toriyama had on both the anime and video game industries is immeasurable, and the vast amount of tributes and kind words being shared in the wake of his passing are a testament to his legacy.
Dragon Ball is a franchise by Akira Toriyama which follows the adventures of Goku, a powerful warrior who protects the earth with his group of friends. A recent title from the series is Dragon Ball: The Breakers, an action style game where 7 players have to survive being hunted by the Raider.
