After months of building anticipation with teasing hints and sneak peeks, the “Battle Ground” DLC for Dragon Ball Z Kakarot is finally here! The release of its first gameplay trailer offers a nostalgic trip back to our childhoods, diving into Akira Toriyama’s manga where he transformed Goku from a playful kid into his young adult self. Back in the ’90s, fans were taken aback by this grown-up version of their beloved hero, who had become more serious and less mischievous. This pivotal period has never been accurately captured in video games before, but now CyberConnect2 is stepping up to change that.This DLC brings us some of the most iconic battles ever seen, such as Goku’s clash with Piccolo (in his Ma Junior form) or Tenshinhan’s battle against Tao Pai Pai, who appears as a fearsome cyborg. The roster doesn’t stop there—supporting characters like Chichi, who is shown in an official game screenshot ready to throw punches herself and will be the future Mrs. Goku, make their appearances too. Alongside them, other fan favorites such as Bulma, Lunch, Master Roshi, and Krillin are also set to join the fun!
But here’s some exciting news wrapped with a bit of anticipation: The release date for the highly-anticipated “Battle Ground / Young Adult Goku” DLC is yet to be announced. So, let’s all practice our patience and eagerly await this incredible addition!
