@DarkMonke so much for the ps5 and xbox fans hating on switch saying the switch is weak all because of sonic colors ultimate right? I mean serious this system is stronger than the wii u, which ran xenoblade chronicles x, the biggest open world game ever made, and they think its weak? maybe this is the wake up call they needed.
@@MistaWind have you even played it? Or looked at comparison videos? If not you can't say that. Its so big you can fit fall out 4's map inside it 4 times and witcher 3's inside it 3 times. Heres another example for you, skyrim's is 37 km big, xenoblade x's is 400 km big. It takes 32 minutes to run across all of xenoblade x, and thats not counting the areas in the sky. And yet you all call the wii u and switch weak lmao. edit: okay so its not the biggest, but its still the 9th biggest as of 2019 with 154 miles of map. and unlike alot of the games listed its a seamless open world with zero loadtimes. on the wii u. so much for wii u and switch being weak.
My first anime before even knowing what anime was is Sonic which I played like since I was 4 or so. Then I bought Naruto games later on with no knowledge. And then when I read some of the manga Fullmetal Alchemist and finally now I started by watching Jojo and am into anime.
Same...I was watching it as a kid not knowing that it was considered animé I just thought they were regular cartoons 😅 haha...I love dbz tho and anything else I watched on toonami growing up
And they said remastered versions they didn't say a whole sequel but I'm not going to disagree with you on that because I would love a raging blast 3 and a Tenkaichi 4 and a xenoverse 3
Ikr, I saw those rings and had PTSD flashbacks. I may be one of a hundred people ever who actually went through and did all the ring levels as a kid / teen (it took that long and that many restarts). They were bad... so, so bad.
i love that you’ve mentioned how smooth the transition between exploring and battling an enemy is! it switches up so quickly that has been my only concern since the legacy of goku on gameboy advance was flawless when it comes to this mechanic and since this is like a big console version of legacy of goku series I really wished that the leveling up by smashing enemies would be done very smooth now I’m relieved
My biggest pet peeve with this game is that it shouldve had more buus fury liker elements. Like being able to transform on the fly whenever you want while freeroaming, and changing to a bunch of different characters when you want. The games still awesome, but its those little things that wouldve made the game perfect.
Same! I been looking for a dragonball game like that for yearsss. Buu's Fury was so much fun and didn't feel overwhelmingly grindy. Do you have any suggestions of games like that, that arent dragon ball?
It may sound strange but I love this game in a weird nostalgia somewhat because this game reminds me a lot of playing Legacy of Goku 2 on my GameBoy advance. This is the first DBZ game I was genuinely excited for and itching to play in many years.
Future trunks is my boy. I just want a hack and slash game with him going though time beating up time villians who want to change the time line for the worse
Ye, in Xenoverse 1 he's your partner. You fight with him multiple times and such. He's in Xenoverse 2 but you're a different person there so he's not your partner. But the game's basic premise is going through time and rectifying changes in the timeline.
Still haven't played this, but I've always been disappointed that this game didn't start from when Goku was a kid. I feel the OG Dragonball is way too ignored. I love DBZ, but I can only stand games going through the same storylines so many times. Gameplay looks fun though, I never took a look at it that much before, so maybe I'll pick this up down the line.
I agree. But at least there are some refrences to og DB in this game. For example, the desert when Yamcha is intruduced is a location in the game. And android 8 is also in the game as side quest character.
I just snagged this on sale during Black Friday and have been enjoying my time with it. Honestly, I don't know why I didn't buy it sooner. It tickles my nostalgia as a longtime fan of the series. It's been ages since I've watched the Z story so it's been really cool getting to re-experience those big moments. I got that same feeling of goosebumps during the cinematic between Goku and Vegeta. The developers did an awesome job with it/them.
I enjoyed this game when it came out on Xbox one and had a real blast with it. Lol I had to struggle at one time but when you learn that food is the leveling system in this game and that you can farm it =) it all becomes much easier.
The last dragon ball games I played on a portable system were the Legacy of Goku games on the GB Advance. This is a bit of a step up. I feel like since I played those games I owe it to myself to play this on the Switch.
I've been enjoying it on the Switch, I don't regret buying it nor have many complaints. Only issue I found so far was when I was doing some image training as Gohan after beating Vegeta, all I was hearing was the characters grunting and yelling along with the background music... all the sound effects were gone for some reason. Also one of the paid DLC was "music from the anime"... but the base game already HAS music from the anime...?? If it was music from the old English dubs, like the classic Rock the Dragon/Next Dimension dub era by Shuki Levy and the Bruce Faulconer-era music, I would've jumped on that purchase in a heartbeat.
Tbh I love dbz too but I haven’t really watched anime in awhile either. I totally passed this game up but I may get this now. The game looks pretty solid
I played this on PS4 at lunch, and loved it so much. It is such fun just to fly around and collect balls. But one thing that may make people dislike this game, is how easy it is. It is one of the easiet games I ever played. This is no issue for me, but some players like to have a challange, which Kakarot doesn't have.
It's crazy that dragon Ball z games went from just being able to play legacy Goku and stuff like portable now we're able to play full console games like kakarot on the go
I remember watching the Freeza saga on toonami then going to a local comic shop where I was able to purchase fan subtitled Japanese VHS tapes of the buu saga and having no idea what the hell was going on 😅😅😅
If we forget for a moment about a story which obviously is better in kakarot, then which one would you prefer solely gameplay wise ? Kakarot or Xenoverse 2?
Saw a little bit of framerate dips especially at the start of battles but this looks really good overall! Very reminiscent of the dragonball games my friends used to play on the PS2 lol
We need a game like this... Where you can create your own character and build from the ground up. Not some time travel jazz though. It's just your home and you're doing your thing.
The fact that this game has been generally well-received gives me hope of adaptations of other anime like this. Of course, I’m thinking Naruto. I would imagine creating a well-made game with a long story that trims the fat of the anime would be wildly popular.
I pre ordered this game wasn't able to pick it up on the day store was closed for some reason then opened like an hour later after waiting for half an hour, so now i am looking forward to getting it next week at some point
Budokai tenkaichi 3 is the best dbz game to ever release and nothing has topped its depth and roster size since. They need to just remake it without changing anything but the graphics
Does anybody have a solution for following problem? The frieza dlc crashed. I wanted to try the time machine and replay the game but I can't do anything. I have to fight Whis and when I want to accept the quest it does nothing and I have to restart. I can't go "back" to fight the hordes with my party or anything
I just bought this game, and before I bought it, I didn't watch a single video till after, and I'm so excited to play this now. I can't wait till it's done downloading
I got this on PS4 a few months ago on sale, played it for a few hours, and then just stopped and never went back. Honestly, it was pretty boring. The Open World was incredibly bland, the non-boss battles really repetitive and the game's systems seemed unnecessarily convoluted.
Agreed, I’m easily amused by Dragon Ball games, but this is the first time since Budokai in 2002 that I haven’t been able to get into the game. Just barely beat Raditz and can’t find the motivation to continue with it. I don’t even know what I would change to make the game better, but it definitely feels like there’s something missing. I know for one the character models are ugly as sin and not particularly accurate to the source material, especially coming off of FighterZ.
You forgot that little golden aura next to Piccolo's picture when that is full and you hold down the charge button you get a rage mode and you could do even more damage
Ok, I may have found a small bug, If you try to do the time orb thing, once you completed it, it gets stuck Idk why this happens but they needs to fix it
Just went to buy this on Nintendo eshop and missed the 80% off sale :( Still am considering it, but damn is 80 bucks worth it for this game? 100% would have grabbed it for the like 20 something it was last weekend
I’m trying to play this game without an internet connection at work and it keeps interrupting my game by saying unable to connect to internet is there a way I can stop this?

I do indeed love the entire series that goes for Dragon Ball GT as well, but as for the game, I pre-ordered it all the way in July. I'm just waiting for the thing to show up. And yes I'll be getting all DLC that's attached to it.
Do you have to play the game with one character throughout...or do you get to level up multiple characters through the game. Similar to having a team in other RPG's, but one at a time.
The fighting is kinda like in Xenoverse 2 but much more streamlined/stripped down. And basically yes about the map. The main draw I would say is the retelling of the story of DBZ which it does do a decent job of (although some story events are missing).
The world looks exactly like on the anime lol Only moments there is a lot of stuff around is when they were on cities... apart from that DBZ worlds are planes basically for fight haha
Really NL? Where can I apply and give a review with some actual knowledge on DBZ/DBS.. “Beerus I think his name is?” “But I don’t recall this form, maybe it was some special episode?” This dude has no idea lol
It's because the devs are aware that the switch isn't as powerful the other current consoles, so instead of releasing it the same time as the other versions, they continue working on it so that it runs well on switch, a lot of other video game devs should take notice.
This runs a lot better on switch than I was expecting

Dude. Dragonball Z introduced me to everything that was anime. And honestly, the series is epic.
Same. I didn't even realize it was anime when I watched it
My first anime before even knowing what anime was is Sonic which I played like since I was 4 or so. Then I bought Naruto games later on with no knowledge. And then when I read some of the manga Fullmetal Alchemist and finally now I started by watching Jojo and am into anime.
My first anime was Akira. Where’s the Akira games?!
Same...I was watching it as a kid not knowing that it was considered animé I just thought they were regular cartoons 😅 haha...I love dbz tho and anything else I watched on toonami growing up
Sailor Moon
With the trifecta of Xenoverse, Fighterz and now Kakarot, Switch has turned into a pretty solid little DBZ machine.
We still need a comeback of the budokai tenchaichi series
Dragon ball Z, budokai tenkaichi 3!!! The wii startup is great
We need a third raging blast game before anything
@@raptorzeraora2632 nah can't eat cheese what basically started the raging blast
For real we should get a remastered pack for the newer systems even though I have all three
And they said remastered versions they didn't say a whole sequel but I'm not going to disagree with you on that because I would love a raging blast 3 and a Tenkaichi 4 and a xenoverse 3
Been playing it non stop since yesterday. Just started the Frieza saga. I love this game!
The open world looks like it's going to scratch that Superman 64 itch
Ikr, I saw those rings and had PTSD flashbacks.
I may be one of a hundred people ever who actually went through and did all the ring levels as a kid / teen (it took that long and that many restarts). They were bad... so, so bad.
I fckn hated how cancer flying through those rings were 🤣
A man of culture
I just miss grabbing cars all awkwardly and dropping them from super high
i love that you’ve mentioned how smooth the transition between exploring and battling an enemy is! it switches up so quickly that has been my only concern since the legacy of goku on gameboy advance was flawless when it comes to this mechanic and since this is like a big console version of legacy of goku series I really wished that the leveling up by smashing enemies would be done very smooth now I’m relieved
I thought it was going to look way worse on Switch. Awesome port.
Damn that Nvidia Tegra processor can take a beating
This looks so good on Switch midway through watching I forgot about it even being played on the switch
My biggest pet peeve with this game is that it shouldve had more buus fury liker elements. Like being able to transform on the fly whenever you want while freeroaming, and changing to a bunch of different characters when you want. The games still awesome, but its those little things that wouldve made the game perfect.

Do you have any suggestions of games like that, that arent dragon ball?
Buu‘s Fury and Legacy of Goku 2 were awesome. Would love a remake of both games for the Switch
I'm really surprised that Horde battles don't lag at all
It may sound strange but I love this game in a weird nostalgia somewhat because this game reminds me a lot of playing Legacy of Goku 2 on my GameBoy advance. This is the first DBZ game I was genuinely excited for and itching to play in many years.
Legacy of Goku on game boy is awesome!!! Especially the second one! I’ve been looking for a DBZ game that resembles that.
I'm so glad I'm not the only one who cares about the landing sound effect!!!!
Future trunks is my boy. I just want a hack and slash game with him going though time beating up time villians who want to change the time line for the worse
xenoverse is there for you
Ye, in Xenoverse 1 he's your partner. You fight with him multiple times and such. He's in Xenoverse 2 but you're a different person there so he's not your partner. But the game's basic premise is going through time and rectifying changes in the timeline.
The Trunks DLC for this game has a lot of sick extra trunks story after his dbz ending
Still haven't played this, but I've always been disappointed that this game didn't start from when Goku was a kid. I feel the OG Dragonball is way too ignored.

Espero que saque más contenido para las consolas
Holy cow this gameplay is so cool! When Zion got the teleport move then back handed Vegeta I yelled 😂
Been waiting for this for a whole year. Dragon Ball has had a rich history with Nintendo and its only natural for it to come to switch.
I enjoyed this game when it came out on Xbox one and had a real blast with it. Lol I had to struggle at one time but when you learn that food is the leveling system in this game and that you can farm it =) it all becomes much easier.

Kakarot
"Getting sidetracked"
"Oh look, theres a little camp site"
Piccolo: theres some herbs around here.
Goku: are we in resident evil piccolo? We are arent we
Piccolo: **internally** dont you dare give me sass goku
Looks like a fun game. I do want to mention the brilliant voice acting from the Funimation cast. Sean did a fine job with Goku here.
Looks and runs 1000x better than I ever thought it could on the Switch.
Glad I pre-ordered this, can't wait til the physical copy arrives!
You showing play as Piccolo is enough to make me buy!!! 😃
I played it on Switch as well as the PS4 and I have to say it holds up really well
