Regarding presentation, Dragon Ball: The Breakers is beautiful with detailed worlds and colorful characters that look as if they were straight from the anime itself. The world seemed to be very well developed with lots of secrets to find. After a 30 min demo session, I am happy to report that I am very intrigued.
The gameplay is pretty straightforward. There is one antagonist called a raider and ordinary citizens called survivors, who are tasked with escaping the battlefield while avoiding the raider. During my demo session, I played as a survivor. I could traverse the environment with a grappling hook that would fling my character towards the target location, making it easy to get around. Each area had an objective to complete so my team was mainly split up. There were crates that would contain different power-ups and items to use. I found a rocket launcher-type weapon that was great for self-defense when fighting the raider.
Personally, It’s exciting to see a top-shelf developer, like Bandai Namco put their spin on the survival co-op genre. Fans of Dragon Ball and online multiplayer survival games should feel right at home with this title with its over-the-top action and fun battle mechanics, make this a game you won’t want to miss. Dragon Ball: The Breakers release is right around the corner and I cannot wait to jump back in.
