The combat is a 3D arena fighter style that is "flashy but basic". While it captures the scale of the anime, the core gameplay loop—fishing, eating for buffs, and flying between areas—can become grindy over its 30–40 hour runtime.
The included "New Power Awakens" set allows players to unlock powerful transformations early, which can make the main story significantly easier and sometimes trivialise the challenge. Pros & Cons Pros Cons
The transition between sagas can feel slow, especially with long load times.
The game excels at retelling the iconic story from Raditz to Buu with high-quality, beautifully animated cutscenes. It includes "slice-of-life" moments and lore-expanding side quests that are not found in the original anime.
Many side activities feel like shallow "fetch-and-collect" chores.
Full console experience on the go with surprisingly decent performance.
Extra boss battles with Beerus and Frieza add value to the base package.
