Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Z

No summary available

Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Z packs quite the punch, offering an interesting take on the franchise lore with an extensive character line-up and a great co-op campaign.

Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods has a lot of what you’d expect from any full season of the show. An over-the-top villain, a ton of explanation of things that don’t make much sense, epic battles, and maybe a little too much campy filler. Seeing some of my favorite characters return, and even more of them duke it out in some of the most exhilarating fight sequences I’ve ever seen is special though. While I would have appreciated seeing more signature abilities, it’s still a treat to jump back into this world once again.

Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Z ended up providing more fun than originally expected, even though the first few hours are very repetitive. If you aren't a fan of the series then this may not be your cup of tea, but as a standalone title it could easily give you an evening's simple and senseless entertainment - especially with a few friends.

Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Z could have been something special with its eight-player battles. Prior games have been all style and no substance and unfortunately the latest is more of the same, possibly even less thanks to its bare-bones presentation. If you’re a huge fan of the iconic anime looking for even more fighting action — and you have friends who are willing to fork out the cash to join you online — there is some enjoyment to be had. For everyone else, aside from the increased multiplayer, you’ve already played this before.
