Android 21 is an Android who appears in Dragon Ball FighterZ. Her intelligence rivals that of Dr. Gero, though she may be even smarter than he was.

 

“Android 21 was a scientist with intelligence on par with Dr. Gero and was involved in various technologies, which brought about what’s happening in the story through her experiments,” Hirok said. However, she wouldn’t specify whether the new Android had some sort of relation to Dr. Gero. “I can say that she has ties with the Red Ribbon Army.”

Hirok also teased some significance to the Android’s gender. “There’s two reasons behind why Android 21 is a female,” Hirok said. “One is a story-driven reason that I can’t disclose yet, which will only come to light through the story of the game, so I really want our players to enjoy learning more about why she’s a female then. As for the other reason, it was simply because Dragon Ball has a lot of male characters, and we wanted a female character to liven-up the game world.”
