Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot
Relive the story of Goku in Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot! Beyond the epic battles, experience life in the Dragon Ball Z world as you fight, fish, eat, and train with Goku. Explore the new areas and adventures as you advance through the story and form powerful bonds with other heroes from the Dragon Ball Z universe.
What it feels like
A swelling sense of hard-won victory and heroic momentum defines progression through the saga.
What it's about
A classic hero's journey following Goku through the Dragon Ball Z saga against escalating cosmic threats. Building and deepening bonds with other characters is a stated core experience. Magic, martial arts mastery, and epic good-versus-evil stakes permeate the setting.
How it plays
Fast-paced melee combat against numerous enemies is the primary moment-to-moment gameplay loop. Deep combo-driven melee combat with expressive, stylish execution defines combat encounters. Character progression through experience and grinding is a standard JRPG feature.
How it looks and sounds
The game's visual language is directly derived from Dragon Ball Z anime styling and character design. The game features fully voice-acted characters throughout story and narrative beats.
How it's structured
A bounded story arc following the events of Dragon Ball Z from beginning to definite end. Multiple large explorable regions (sagas/world areas) entered discretely rather than one seamless mass. While story-driven, the open zones allow player agency in exploration and side-content order.
