Dragonball Z: Battle of Z Goku Edition Announced

Namco Bandai have revealed the Dragonball Z: Battle of Z Special Edition, which comes with a 25cm figure of Super Saiyan Goku alongside a 60 page artbook.

This special edition will also come with exclusive Day 1 DLC – A Naruto Uzumaki costume for Goku. That is as weird to see as it sounds (just check out the trailer below).

Dragonball Z: Battle of Z is a more open attempt at a DBZ title. Rather than being a one on one fighter, as the Budokai and Tenkaichi games have been for a good while, Battle of Z focuses on teams of players either battling hordes of enemies, or fighting other teams.

You can watch some gameplay of Dragonball Z: Battle of Z over on Namco Bandai’s official YouTube channel here.

Dragonball Z: Battle of Z looks vibrant enough, with an artstlye that’s very faithful to the source material, but right now it looks a bit too much like a laser show. Dragonball always has plenty of Ki blasts flying around, but it was rare that anyone would be playing sniper. It would be even more rare that said sniper would actually be successful.

Either way, that Goku statue looks lovely.

If writing ability was a flavour, I would be the warming embrace of apple and cinnamon - wonderfully familiar and pleasantly spiced. Ever the optimist, I spend most of my game time diligently failing at fighting games (BlazBlue and Persona 4 Arena being the preferred titles), Monster Hunter and Dark Souls. As you can surely ascertain from such preferences I'm a gamer at my most content when a title is punishing me, abusing my feeble abilities and forcing me to improve myself in order to overcome life affirming challenges. Feel free to question my opinions and such on Twitter, @Dalagonash, or find me on every gaming network available as Dalagonash.
