You can only tell the same story so many times, and Dragon Ball games are well past their allotment. I've seen Raditz perforated by the Special Beam Cannon more than 100 times by now, and while I love the series' grandiose narrative and iconic moments, it has long needed a spark.

Detailed character customization; New; interesting take on a tired story

Basic; loose controls make for uneven gameplay; Immense enemy health bars result in shallow; frustrating end game

Dragon Ball: Xenoverse marks the first manifestation of a Dragon Ball brawler on this generation's most advanced consoles (PlayStation 4, Xbox One), and the noticeable uptick in graphical fluidity combined with a unique solo campaign seems to be just what this series needed in order to escape from...

While being able to create a character to interact in the DBZ universe is a delight, some janky mechanics would unfortunately insure this game couldn't get a perfect score. What sadly confirms sure of that is the developers' decision to see fit that just about any power or piece of clothing you...

No doubt a dream come true for fans, but with so little innovation in the core gameplay the boast of being an interactive cartoon seems more like a liability than a positive.

Real effort has gone into the story mode and the game's visuals look great; Relatively deep role-playing and customisation options, as well as strong online features

Dragonball Z has a lengthy series of video games. Some of the games were more mediocre, while others offered simplistic fighting gameplay allowing anyone to join in on the action. All do a great job at giving fans of the show a chance to relive their favorite moments.

From being able to create your own character, the battle system is very easy and fun that anyone can immense on it. Unlike other fighting games where you have to input commands to use their special moves, on this game every thing can be done with ease.

There are approximately seven thousand Dragonball Z games, all of them based on stretches of the four hundred thousand episodes of the television show. Their quality has fluctuated wildly over the years – sometimes even within a specific series, as any Budokai fan will happily tell you if you...

Why walk when you can fly?

Dragon Ball Xenoverse will bring all the frenzied battles between Goku and his fiercest enemies, such as Vegeta, Frieza, Cell and much more, with new gameplay design!
