Fights are always done midair with instant transmission used to close the gap between enemies or avoid their attacks, while super moves consist of a mix of ranged and close attacks like the famous Kaioken and Kamehameha. Similar to Naruto’s Ultimate Ninja Storm game series, the game lets players experience the franchise’s rich history and lore with lots of storytelling, dialogue-heavy cut scenes, surprisingly eventful fan service side quests, and neat collectible littered about the world that reminds or informs players of the earlier days of the Dragon Ball universe.Īs for combat in Kakarot, the game takes a simplistic yet detailed approach as moves are easily played out, with each button serving a purpose to a corresponding move. One thing that’s certain about Dragon Ball Z Kakarot is that it is an adaptation of the anime and manga series through and through. While Goku climbs his way out of the underworld through bureaucracy and odd challenges, Gohan is led to fend for himself with limited help from the enemy-turned-trainer Piccolo as he faces one threat after the other for the faith of the planet. The game starts out simple enough as players take on the role of Goku being a moderate to good father of a young Gohan before Saiyans invade earth, and he’s unfortunately killed amidst the chaos. Unlike most other titles that assume the player is a well-versed super fan, Kakarot guides the player through each critical narrative point in the series while teaching them the ins and outs of the characters, world, and combat. The game almost perfectly adapts the seemingly never-ending battles of Goku and the Saiyans in a way most other anime game adaptations do not.
Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot has surprised me by scratching some itches I never knew I had.
