A new preview for some Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero merchandise features character models and bios for the line of characters set to appear in the movie, and of course, that includes Goku's son, Gohan. The character's bio reads: "First we have Ulitmate Gohan, who we saw in the new movie's key visual! Just what kind of enemy will he be going up against in this, his most powerful form?!"

Ultimate Gohan debuted in Dragon Ball Z's Buu Saga, which originally premiered in 1994. Gohan's power-up was unlocked by Elder Kaioshin. Dragon Ball Super also showed Gohan's Ultimate form get an upgrade, so he can join Universe 7's team in the Tournament of Power. It's still unclear how strong Gohan's Ultimate form will be compared to Goku's complete Ultra Instinct form or Vegeta's Ultra-Ego form, but it looks like the young Saiyan will not be holding back in his battle against Gamma 1 and Gamma 2.
