It will players to do battle in 3v3 tag matches, with players able to switch between characters and call in assists as in Marvel Vs Capcom.
It’s a fantastic looking game, with fast flowing combat, spectacular special moves and and beautiful animation that looks just like (or even better than) the Anime it’s based on. It’s shaping up to be a kick ass Dragon Ball Z game and an accomplished fighting game in its own right. Sign up now for some spectacle-filled skill based combat.
