While announcements have confirmed that Cooler is indeed coming, there has yet to be an official announcement when the Frieza race fighter will be added to the roster. Fans can expect Cooler to be playable after the Vegeta and Goku DLC release on Aug. 8. Regarding access to the new character, fans will have to wait for an announcement if Cooler will be packaged in a future DLC or will be available to players who already own the base game.
Either way, players who have already availed of the “Dragon Ball FighterZ” DLC Season Pass will be sure to get their Cooler fix once the character is released.
