During last month's Comic-Con@Home, Toei Animation announced the official title of the next feature film for Akira Toriyama's popular Shonen series: Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero, which is scheduled to release in 2022. Although executive producers Akio Iyoku and Hirihiro Hayashia didn't drop any major plot spoilers for the upcoming film, they did confirm that Piccolo will have a prominent role in the film. Apparently, the Namekian's home will be featured in Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero, and fans are excited to see how the story will unfold in this setting.
According to the official website of Dragon Ball, Piccolo's new house is close to Gohan's family, so the Namekian is able to continue his role as a father figure to Gohan and visit them daily. Pan, Gohan and Videl's daughter, is also confirmed to have a prominent role in the film, and based on the movie's title, it's likely that Gohan's Great Saiyaman will return.
Over on Twitter, Herms98 shared new details, previously shared in the Resurrection of F book, regarding the new house of Piccolo.
During the panel, a new concept art of Piccolo's character design was revealed as well as a look at his house, which is expected to be an important setting in Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero.

Toei Animation hasn't announced an exact official release date for Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero, but they already confirmed that it will be released sometime in 2022, but expect the movie to come out in Japan first. The full-length feature film will most likely be released before new episodes of the Dragon Ball Super anime series will come out.
