Dragon Ball FighterZ is the culmination of a legendary franchise, packing fast-paced combat and graphics faithful to the source material. With a legacy that spans decades across all forms of media, Dragon Ball is one of the largest Japanese media franchises around.

Easy to pick up; Looks as good as it plays; Lots of ways to play

Could use more characters; Story mode a bit repetitive

If youre a fan of Dragon Ball you WILL love this game. It feels like the Budokai 4 we've been waiting for when we were kids. Even if you dont like Dragon Ball, this is an excellent competitive fighting game with lots of depth and mechanics thatll have you craving to play.

Pokemon wasn't the only show of a morning that'd have kids waking up too early and slurping down cereal in front of the morning aerobics. Dragon Ball Z was, and still is to some degree, a powerhouse of anime that was as ballistic as it was campy and feel-good.

DBZ superfan Ben Wilson checks out the latest game in the big hair, high power, slow-mo reaction shot franchise.

The banter between old friends and enemies as they fight is great; It's very accessible, so expect plenty of mega blasts

The main menu's online connection is tenuous; The narrative framing is clumsy and unnecessary

Have not been able to put down the controller since I got home from work. The graphics are simply amazing and the gameplay is superb. The character moves have changed slightly to add something extra to well loved characters.

During my primary school days, Dragon Ball Z was a pretty big part of my daily schedule. At 5 pm on weekdays, I would almost religiously sit down in front of SABC2 to see if maybe today Goku and friends would be able to defeat the current greatest threat the universe has faced.

Beautiful presentation; Engaging fighting; True to source material

Story could be a little better; Where's Bio-Broly

Tekken 7 has been a long time coming. After releasing the game in arcades two years ago, Bandai Namco has been building up to the home version since, adding new characters and improving polish and balance.

It's interesting that it's taken until now, in an age of super-consoles and high-end PCs, for an anime series from the 90s to really feel like it's getting its visual just desserts in the realm of videogames.

A dream come true for Dragon Ball fans, but also a highly competent fighting game that is a front runner for the best fighter of the generation.

Amazing visuals and great attention to detail for anime fans; Deep but accessible combat mechanics, with plenty of characters and an excellent story mode; Robust online options

There's nothing genuinely new in the gameplay, with a lot of obvious swipes from Capcom games; If you don't know Dragon Ball some of the character designs can seem repetitive

Tekken will always have a place among today's fighting games, but it will always be its own place, and Tekken 7 is the best embodiment of that mentality. They've made very little effort to conform to what other fighting games have taken for granted, even down to Tekken 7 ‘s use of 3D arenas where...

Creatively designed characters; Doesn't fall into fighting game formula; Solid PC performance; Engaging main story mode; Manages technical combat without expected frills

Underdeveloped side characters; Character customization is a step down from Tekken 6
