On February 29, 2024, Arc System Works released update 1.000.001 for Dragon Ball FighterZ, targeting the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series S/X versions of the game, applicable to both the Series 1 and 2 console iterations. This update was intended to be a day-one patch for these specific platforms. However, a critical issue emerged on the Xbox versions, prompting an official statement from the game’s developers.
While Arc System Works has yet to release official patch notes detailing the intended changes and fixes included in update 1.000.001, it has been confirmed that the update does not introduce any new features to the game. Unfortunately, for players on Xbox One and Xbox Series S/X consoles, the update has caused an unintended consequence: the game becomes unplayable.
The developers, acknowledging the issue through their official Twitter/X account (@dragonballgames) on March 29, 2024, expressed their sincere apologies and confirmed that the update is currently preventing Dragon Ball FighterZ from launching or downloading on Xbox consoles. They emphasized that their team is actively investigating the problem and working towards a swift resolution. Additionally, they advised Xbox One players to refrain from installing the update until a fix is available.
This unforeseen complication with update 1.000.001 is likely to cause frustration for Xbox players who were anticipating a smooth transition to the upgraded versions of the game. While the developers have assured the community of their ongoing efforts to address the issue, players are urged to stay informed through official channels for updates and solutions.
