You must be living under a rock or really hate anime if you don?t know the tale of Son Goku, but even those who do know, the game Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot is an entertaining way of re-living the adult life of the Saiyan who seemingly will not stop breaking the limits. Developed by CyberConnect2, the same studio behind the cinematic Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm titles covers the 4 major sagas of the Dragon Ball Z manga/Anime (Sorry fans of DBZ Super, you only get a taste of what?s to come in this game).

A physical copy of the base game is available for pre-order today, however for those who are seeking a little bit more a slew of digital versions will be available. The deluxe version will include the first season pass, the legendary version will include the game?s 2 season passes, the latter will include the upcoming DLC featuring the story of Bardock, who is the man who sired Goku. Owners of last gen versions will get a free digital upgrade. Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot will be coming to PS5 and Xbox Series X|S on January 13th, 2023.
