Deleted Nintendo UK post teases Janemba’s Dragon Ball FighterZ release
Toei AnimationJanemba, the antagonist from the Dragon Ball Z movie 12 Fusion Reborn is set to be the final DLC in the game’s second FighterZ Pass and may be coming very soon thanks for a leak by Nintendo UK.
The character was first leaked back in May by Xbox TV, but Microsoft said it was authorized to do so by Bandai Namco.
Now, Nintendo UK has apparently leaked Janemba again, this time adding speculation that the release is coming very soon.
Nintendo UK’s description read, “Janemba, the evil demon, joins the battle from the underworld”. This implies the announcement was intended for an actual character release and not just an announcement of a release date.
Along with Janemba, there will be five alternate colors for his outfit, a new lobby avatar, and a stamp.

The page with the announcement has since been deleted, but screenshots have already made their way across the internet.
Janemba will be the sixth new character in Dragon Ball FighterZ’s season 2 DLC. So far, the game has included Broly and Gogeta from the Dragon Ball Super Broly movie, Goku from GT, Jiren and Videl.
One potential release date or official announcement could be Evo 2019, a massive annual fighting game tournament held in Las Vegas featuring games such as Super Smash Bros Ultimate, Street Fighter V and Dragon Ball FighterZ. Over 1,000 Dragon Ball FighterZ players have signed up to compete.
PlayStation is sponsoring Evo and is slated to have ‘news’ at the event leading some to believe a new game could be announced.
This isn’t the only recent leak by a European Nintendo account. Earlier on July 29, Nintendo Netherlands revealed that a new patch for Super Smash Bros Ultimate will be released on July 31. It’s likely the game’s newest DLC fighter, Hero from Dragon Quest will be included.
What do you think of these leaks? We’ve love to hear from you on Twitter.
