Fortnite x Dragon Ball is returning, and as recently revealed on the game’s social media channels, character Outfits including Son Gohan and Piccolo from the Dragon Ball Super: SUPER HERO film are being added as part of the v23.30 update.

The Son Gohan Outfit features a built-in Gohan’s Charging Up Emote that’ll allow you to switch to Super Saiyan, with the Super Saiyan Style selectable in the player’s Locker as well. Optional accessories you can pair with the Son Gohan Outfit include: Gohan’s Cape Back Bling, Gohan’s Beast Axe Pickaxe, and Capsule No. 576 Glider.

With the Piccolo Outfit, there’s a built-in Piccolo’s Charging Up Emote to manifest the Power Awakening version of Piccolo. Similarly, players can grab optional accessories for the Piccolo Outfit such as: Piccolo’s Cape and Turban Back Bling, Piccolo’s Demon Symbol Back Bling, Piccolo’s Handheld House Pickaxe, and Red Ribbon Army Aircraft Glider.

In addition to the aforementioned character Outfits, the Kamehameha attack item and Nimbus Cloud (Kintoun) mobility item are also being pulled out of the vault, with Dragon Ball Adventure Island likewise making a return.

With the return of Dragon Ball Adventure Island from creator team Vysena Studios, players will be able to pay a visit to Goku’s House, Kami’s Palace, the Room of Spirit & Time, and Beerus’ Planet. Players will also be able to put their skills to the test in Tenkaichi Budokai in the area’s open PvP battle arena.

Free unlockable items will be on offer to further incentivize players to complete Dragon Ball-themed Weekly Quests on the island. By completing these Quests, players will be able to unlock the Orange Piccolo Spray with another opportunity to unlock the Gohan Beast Spray starting February 7 at 9 a.m. ET.
