Dragon Ball FighterZ's story mode is very good, but it's made even better with the addition of Special Events. These special cutscenes are interspersed just before fights and they reunite certain characters to create some amazing dialogue.
Even if you aren't into the Special Events in Dragon Ball FighterZ's story mode, you may want to unlock them all to 100 percent the story.
To unlock these Special Events, you'll need to team up certain characters who have history together or pit them against an opponent that they have history with. For example, having Vegeta and Frieza team up will unlock a Special Event. Having Frieza and Cell team up against Goku will unlock a unique dialogue between them as well.
Some of these combinations are rather easy to figure out and some aren't. The collection of all these Special Events in the Story Mode are also determined by the maps you are in. You may not find the right opponent to unlock a Special Event, but thankfully, you can always go back to a specific map later on. Also, to get SSGSS Goku and Vegeta in the Story Mode you'll need to have them reach Level 40.
Here's every Special Event in the Story Mode of Dragon Ball FighterZ.
