 How's it going everybody? DottoDoy here and in case you can't tell from the title and thumbnail this is going to be a more positive update from the Dragon Ball FighterZ tournaments cancelled video I did only a few days ago. Now very quickly before we get into the positive news I do want to break down the situation just in case on the off chance somebody missed what happened or heard about it from a friend and missed all the other videos for me and other creators that also covered the topic. So basically what had happened is a few FighterZ tournaments were pulled from some notable events and then when asked why they were pulled so late we were given a vague response along the lines of this was due to unforeseen circumstances and things like that and this was also amid reports of there being some rights issues which could be causing this and after people heard this it basically broke down into people demanding to know who was doing this originally the finger was being pointed at Toei this is when I made my video since then on social media Toei has said they have no knowledge of the event and other people would say it's not Toei that would have the rights to it as they only have the rights to the anime it would have to be Shueisha people ended up switching who they were pointing at from Toei to Shueisha and basically at the end of it all I personally just kind of felt like we were never going to get an answer on what exactly happened but luckily enough in only a few days we have gotten an update that is actually some very good news this information could not come at a better time because the people in the community were getting really severe with this kind of stuff way more than I ever thought it would and I got to be honest as I was reading some comments and things people were taking into some very far directions like some stuff I was seeing like wow Dragon Ball FighterZ is dead for sure now I'll never play in another tournament again I'll never see another DLC character but this response from Harada with who you may know if you're a fan of Tekken puts a lot of those specific fears at ease in his letter to the communities of three games those being Dragon Ball FighterZ, Tekken and Soul Calibur though it is very easy to feel that if you play Dragon Ball FighterZ that some of this letter might be directed directly at our specific subsection of a community Harada's post specifically says this I wanted to notify everyone that I have become the leader and supervisor of the Bandai Namco fighting game esports strategy team Of course I'll continue producing the game as well this is of course referring to Tekken and first I would like to express my sincere gratitude to everyone who held and or participated in various tournaments this year we at Bandai Namco are committed to expand the horizons of both tournament and community scenes of these three franchises we are already planning to have as many official tournaments as possible for next year while continuing to support tournaments held by the community furthermore and this is a very important line if you're into Dragon Ball FighterZ exclusively we are dedicated to figure out ways where we can assist tournaments and community activities in the future now of course this isn't only good to read if you're a fan of Dragon Ball FighterZ as it says in the post they are dedicated to all three of these games DBFC Tekken and Soul Calibur this post also informs us that more official events are coming in 2019 for these three games as well as the fact that they are going to take steps to work closer to the community when it comes to running community oriented tournaments this is what I feel is the main takeaway from this post if you're a Dragon Ball FighterZ tournament this is kind of what the big deal was supposed to be with those tournaments being pulled but you know since then it kind of got molded into Dragon Ball FighterZ being done forever but this kind of lets us know that Dragon Ball FighterZ still has a very healthy future and hopefully Herodic can continue to do great work like he has done in the past and it really excel in this new role so at the end of the day what the situation tells us is that Dragon Ball FighterZ is most likely going to be more than just fine in 2019 and maybe even beyond hopefully this helps some of the people that really thought this was going to be the end of FighterZ again it doesn't specifically mention more DLC on the way but again be sure to look out for those Dragon Ball FighterZ World Tour Finals happening on January 26th I am sure there will be some news there regarding a season two future plans for the game competitively more specifics in in more specifics I should say but yeah make sure you're watching that if you want to let them know that you love their game just keep watching it it's been super popular and I'm sure it will continue to be super popular but yeah guys since we're at the end of this video I would also like to take a minute and just say that if you left my video feeling like Dragon Ball FighterZ was going to be done I am very sorry for that I definitely was talking a little bit too emotional I'll say in that video it was just kind of sad that those events specifically were getting taken away because you know I'm a huge Dragon Ball FighterZ fan I always want to see more fighters but if there was something about my language that made you think that I didn't think more DLC was on the way or that competitive plans for this game was going to stop entirely that is entirely on me and 100% my fault and in the future I will look to definitely do a lot more research and probably think out my words a little more in videos like that seriously 1,000 times sorry it's kind of my hobby to get people excited about fighters and I just feel super bad that I might have done the exact opposite with that last video but yeah guys let me know down in the comments if this helped you out at all be more comfortable with the fighter situation going on now Bandai is clearly on the side of fighters with this post and I hope if nothing else that helps you out a lot I'm Dr. Doya I'll see you in the next video
