Dragon Ball FighterZ Fans Unhappy As The Game Is Dropped From Another Tournament

Last week, Dragon Ball FighterZ made headlines when the EVO Japan 2019 games line-up was revealed, and the popular 2018-fighter from Bandai Namco was missing.

Now, Aksys Games has announced that the game also won't be present at Anime Ascension. And again, a reason why, isn't divulged and isn't obvious.

The only 2 theories I can think of -
Licensing of some of the roster
or
the whole theory of how Capcom is upset because of how similar the game plays to U/MvC 3

This game is nothing like mvc 3.

[CorndogBurglar]

Yeah. This game really doesn't play anything like MVC

[PhantomS42]

Oh just enjoy the game, stop getting upset over dumb things.

[spartan112g]

Because getting upset over a game that you level having tournaments canceled is dumb. Think before you talk.

[PhantomS42]

It's a game, it's meant to be fun. I play the game and guess what, not having a tournament is not taking away from the fun of the game. Getting pissed because something so non-essential to the fun of the game just shows how much of an entitled brat you are. Perhaps you should think before you throw a fit.

That’s konami level lol. Such a weird thing to do, I want to know the reason now lol. Are they trying to push people into another game they have out? There is jump force but why wouldn’t you ride the Dbfz boat until that game launches?

[DivineBliss]

Toei got their check already and they dont want other companies to continue to make profit off their properties.

[Smokehouse]

Oh ok.

[RadicalBradical]

Most likely a licensing issue. Toei has been known to be pretty strict with their licenses.
