As teased earlier, Bandai Namco unveiled the first trailer of its new Dragon Ball Z game during the Red Bull Final Summoning Dragon Ball FighterZ tournament. Titled Dragon Ball Game - Project Z, the game's trailer does not show much in terms of gameplay but shows, in what looks like the game's graphics, iconic scenes from the Saiyan and Frieza Arc. This new game will be an action RPG which will seemingly center around Goku & co. during their adventures throughout the Dragon Ball Z series.

CyberConnect2, which worked on the Naruto Shippuden series, is handling the development of Project Z and the game is expected to launch sometime in 2019 for PC, Xbox and PS4.

They nailed the dragon ball look for sure, which is nice. Kinda sad we didnt see any gameplay though.

[ShonenJump]

going further what infinite world did. Now we can freely explore. Also the style looked a bit like infinite world opening too

But infinite world wasnt an arpg right? Thats one of the DB games I havent played yet

Kinda dissapointed that we have to play through the entire story again wich we have done a million times already. Was hoping for an entire new story but yeah what do you expect if they're already releasing it this year.

yep no rpg elements at all lol. you had collect spirit balls in the levels in order to proceed. And battle Gameplay was just like shin budokai.

Looks like a remake of Legacy of Goku

Last couple Dragon Ball Z games have had brand new stories

Legacy of Goku only went to Frieza saga

And that sucked. The game was OK, but very short.

i know they are trying to recreate 2D with 3D and blah blah blah
but it feels like it's an xbox 360 game
some parts looks nice, other parts the animation is weird and gives this feeling

Determination, despair and hope.... Now where did we heard this from....?

Yes, Undertale...

I think there is some small gameplay footage at the end, hinting at a potential open-world. But I know what you mean, no battle gameplay or showing of the RPG-like elements, which is what these games are really about.

I just really want to know how the gameplay is. Being open world is not really that special these days. If the battle system is boring then I dont see a reason to play it, even as a huge DB fan. It wont have anything special in the story since it'll probably just another telling of the Z story that we see in every game

 

[Dubbicakes]

Thumbs up, good or bad I kinda already love it.

 

[chrisrlink]

what systems i'm sure xb1/ps4 so I'll grab the ps4 version

 

[SolanaRafael]

Glad I have an Xbone , best combo with Switch, now I know PS has better exclusives but I can't stand their controller God knows Ive tried..


on topic, this is the dragon ball I've always wanted, loved the legacy of goku games, hopefully a "watered down" version will be adapted for switch, I think it's proven to drive good sales (far as I know DBFZ sold decent enough didn't it?)
