Update: Following the Trophy list posting earlier today on Exophase, Bandai Namco has now confirmed Dragon Ball FighterZ will be treated to a PS5 version as soon as midnight tonight in your local time zone. The game's out tomorrow, 29th February 2024, and the current-gen version will be sporting rollback netcode. It's a free PS4 to PS5 upgrade for anyone who owns the original version.
Original story: We know a PS5 version of sublime anime brawler Dragon Ball FighterZ is incoming with rollback netcode, but publisher Bandai Namco has yet to announce a release date. The company did run a PC-based beta test late last year, however, and now it looks like the conversion could be close, as its Trophies have started to appear on Sony’s servers.
There are no secrets in the list, as it’s identical to the PS4 version, but its appearance suggests a launch may be imminent. This’ll be a free upgrade if you already own the title, and is unlikely to pack too many improvements beyond that all-important addition of rollback – but if you’re still regularly playing the fighter, especially online, then you’re going to want to download this enhanced edition.

Once this comes out I'll be playing the crap out of it and also need to buy Android 21

Nice, didn't even realise this was coming to PS5. Wonder when Xenoverse 2 gets the upgrade?
@MickOnYourFace The PS5 version of DBFZ was announced in 2022 and hasn't been heard of since... until now.
One of my favourite fighting games ever! Still go back to it with friends round after all these years! Didn't even know this was getting a PS5 version, let alone free upgrade. Thanks for the heads up!
Nice to see the wait is finally over for those who have been waiting, because I know this will definitely cause player counts to spike up again. I play it on Switch so I'm not so lucky but I bet most console players are on PS4/5 so I bet that it will get another good shot in the arm
There's a lot of stuff coming out tomorrow. Looking forward to playing a bit more of this on PS5!
Will there be a physical PS5 edition?
Finally, it was once a dream and now it’s reality. Too bad it’s not main stage EVO anymore Sadge
Worth noting that the upgrade is not available for the PS+ version - that's still PS4 only
