    Great visuals and overall presentation, but everything else is just mediocre or straight up bad. I wasn't expecting anything deep but the game's mechanics are either too simplistic or annoying.

    1. You get 1 attack button that can't be cancelled into supers unless you do a full combo then pair it with a Kamehameha. Some supers are also broken due to input delay and others just don't work properly like the consecutive energy blast.

    2. Boss fights are annoying. Their attacks are always paired with super armor and will often even go through your supers. If you get a boss down to it's last HP bar then they'll start to permanently rotate between super armor specials and super armor dash attacks. The joke about all this is that the gameplay isn't the slightest bit challenging, yet it tries so hard to annoy you in every single way possible.

    3. Uneccessary rpg mechanics. What's the point of having a leveling system when each time you change characters they get 1million XP for free? No reason to grind. The skill tree is also just a bunch of upgrades for attacks that you get through the story. What's the difference between this and the capsule system that was used in Budokai 3? Maybe the fact that companies today need to have "rPg eLemeNtZ" in order for their game to sell.

    TL;DR Style over substance.. Bandai is a company that makes low effort garbage and Kakarot is yet another proof of that.    … Expand

Almost every feature in this game seems to have been put in not because it enriches the gameplay, but because other Open-World titles do something similar.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. So many great ideas for this game, poor execution. One of the more aspects for me was cooking setup. Only make one item at a time, takes way too long. The constantly switching between characters was also annoying. Artificially extending boss fights by adding lame mechanics that make them invulnerable almost. The power curve for levels and exp is way out of portions as well. The biggest annoyance was how bad the voice acting and lip sync was.… Expand

    The last DBZ related game I played was Budokai on the PS2. I thought it was fun and to the point. This game is just very bloated.

I don't want to sit and read text boxes. Granted I was frustrated for the first few hours because I didn't know how to do certain things.

    Does it really need the tacked on RPG elements and open world with nothing there? I'm tired of developers making open world games but never put any effort into the environment. It reminds me of Death Stranding. There is no incentive to explore. The world is just peppered with orbs you can't even use right away, and ingredients for the food crafting mechanics. Aside from the main story characters, all the NPCs look like lifeless dolls. There is no detail to them at all. Instead they could have easily just made it one screen where you just choose the next story event. That's all this game feels like. But instead you just fly through an open empty world to the next event.

    This game is falsely advertised as an RPG. Not sure what is the point of making it like an RPG when you can't really level grind either. I guess to give you the sense you're getting stronger like in the show? But if you try to power up too much and get certain abilities, the game locks you out from using them. So what's the point in training like in the show when you can't even play the way you want and use abilities you earned? Just because it doesn't follow the story? Then why make it like an RPG?

    Normal mobs are easy to kill and some boss fights are very hard if you don't bring healing items. It's very unbalanced. Bosses just spam their special moves. Battle is boring. It's basically just dodge a lot and wait for an opening to get a few hits in. Makes combat take forever on tough fights. It's not fun. What's fun is really beating the crap out of an enemy and feeling good about it. I don't want to sit here and dodge a lot waiting to get a few hits in. This isn't Dark Souls!

    Not very satisfied with this game. It's the same story we've all seen before. Honestly I'm just skipping all the story and dialogue. I know the plot points. I don't want to sit through it all again. If the new content was worth it maybe I'd be into that, but the side quests are boring and repetitive. There really ISN'T a whole lot here that I haven't seen before content wise. If they were going to redo the same story. The least they could have done was make some fun alternative story content.

    This game is just another cash grab on people's nostalgia, and I fell for it. Just avoid this rubbish. The load times are straight up out of PS1 era of bad. Can they fix it in a patch? Anyway, just buy a real open world RPG like Witcher 3.    … Expand

    I wanted to like this game, but I found myself falling asleep between fight/cut scenes. Very, very slow starting the information is not that complicated to warrant the slow approach to the simplistic controls. I just feel it’s too late in the franchise for this, the retelling of the same story yet again for the 24th time. I know this content too well to be exited for what comes next.

The gameplay is fun, if only there was more fighting. The enemies in the open world hardly put up more then 50 seconds of fight, and that’s being generous. That coupled with the main fights being easier than they should be just kills the small uplifting moment before the droning storyline, single sentence button tapping dialogue advancement continues. Having an open world, world map and an odd skill tree doesn’t constitute the RPG tag line here.
    Insanely let down. This was marketed as something it clearly is not.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The game could have been much better, if only they added COOP. Even if they did not they could have added custom characters. The combat is repetitive with the opponent repeating the same attacks without giving you time to charge ki or move. Even when using burst the opponent is unaffected. Also, you cant switch between character until finishing the game, some characters are unplayable as they can only be used for support. And some side quests can only be played as certain characters. Even when you have finished the game and are roaming in the open world you cant use attacks instead of ki blasts. You are also repetitively ambushed in the open world when you are trying to roam around. The dragon balls have very limited wishes. Some battles such as the great ape Vegeta fight had hitboxes that were impossible to hit. During some missions, you are unable to leave. Doing some missions causes you to be unable to complete other missions without finishing the game.Opponents also have an unfair amount of health compared to the player and have attacks that can deal half a bar of health. Some combos do not do any damage even though they re are shown as hitting the opponent… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. i cant honestly believe all the 10/10 im seeing have you guys never played any other games or just fan boys to the end? I get being a fan , I love dragonball and games, but if you care about something you tell it when its done wrong, not pretend its all good and live in denial.

    the fighting mechanics are weak its like xenoverse had a regression of mechanics, all bosses have super armour and all training is 3 on 1 with them spamming you with projectiles, there is no challenge outside of that, most fights consist of one combo over and over and spamming special moves.
    the "rpg" elements are little to none and have little impact in the game its a action game with ridiculous numbers that don't mean a lot when you really look at it,

    some of the visuals are amazing and really show what this game is capable of like recomes ultra fighting bomber or vegeta loosing his temper at cell are 10/10 when it comes to visuals I cant deny that, but so many other story critical moments where either low effort cut scenes not fully rendered or straight up skipped and told to us by the announcer while we get a slide show if we get that, the recome scene got more love than the goku vs majin vegeta bit I mean...…….

    we was sold on it having new info to the series but any fan like me will know pretty much all this stuff and anything they do add like bulmas mums name are pointless and not worth your money

    the game called kakarot but it skips most of his time in the anime and focuses on gohan and the other cast, I think you play as goku the least in the story, its a misnomer it should have been called gohan.

    all in all a very average game if you never played a dragonball z game you might get some enjoyment out of playing the story but any older fans will get bored and frustrated with this game fast, as the combat is boring and gets stale fast and they cut so much its painful to sit though after you feel you been robbed of a great moment    … Expand

    1 NO es un juego RPG bajo ningún parámetro

    2 El juego después del primer capitulo es pobre en el sentido de innovación y enfrentamientos, vale decir, repetitivo, peleas constantes y molestas contra, siempre, los mismos enemigos (genéricos) mientras te mueves, (enemigos que no aportan nada, ya que su loot es pobre e invariable, y la experiencia que dan es insignificante)

    3 Demasiadas cinemáticas y cargas, básicamente el juego carga durante 30 segundos mínimo, entre cada 20 segundos o 2 minutos de juego. El 60% del tiempo que estas jugando solo estas viendo cinemáticas, otro 20% estas cargando, por lo que de juego queda bien poco.

    4 Los diseños no están a la altura de otras entregas, en ocasiones se ven cutres o poco detallados

    5 Las batallas son monótonas, todas caen en las mismas mecánicas, después de un rato de jugar, cuando debes aprender skills nuevas, todos los desafíos son iguales, lo cual hace que pierda todo dinamismo y en definitiva no te den ganas de sacarlas, pues con dos o tres puedes derrotar a todos sin problemas.

    6 El juego adolece de sistemas diversos, la única cosa diferente es conducir un auto, mientras otros elementos simplemente son irrelevantes como el farmeo de materiales, la comida incluso la recolección de esferas de poder, en este aspecto el juego es deprimente pues lo único que haces es apretar un botón y moverte a una nueva pelea.

    7 El juego dice tener entre 45 y 80 horas de juego, lo que es verdad, pero como mencione antes, en realidad de juego no tiene mas de 35 si le quitas las cinemáticas y las cargas constantes.

    8 El costo del juego es muy elevado para lo poco que ofrece, básicamente, es el costo de un juego como inquisition o cuando salio witcher 3, entre muchos otros de ese nivel de calidad, sin embargo es un juego muy olvidable.

    9 Cero rejugabilidad, un típico RPG lo puedes jugar muchísimas veces; sin embargo, este titulo por su sistema de juego y peleas mas las cargas y cinemáticas, definitivamente no querrás volver a jugarlo, ademas de que en el juego jamas tomas una decisión por lo que no hay posibles variantes o resultados así como tampoco hay finales diferentes, lo cual es lógico por que es la historia de Goku; sin embargo, es tan limitante esto ultimo que es insultante que lo denominen como rpg.

    10 No tiene sistema de pelea pvp, tampoco eventos que siempre llaman la atención como la configuración de un torneo o cualquier cosa que no sea hacer lo mismo por horas.

    BIEN

    1 El sistema de pelea es simple y esto hace que sean rápidas y vertiginosas dando una sensación inmersiva de velocidad, pero solo eso.

    2 Si bien encontré varios bugs, ninguno fue serio o dramático, en ese sentido el juego esta bien.

    3 La animación de los movimientos es fluida y bien lograda tanto para moverse libremente como en las peleas.

    4 Es un buen resumen de la historia, y si bien hay partes que hubiese querido jugar, la mayoría están ahí.

    5 La música esta bien puesta, me refiero a que suena precisamente la que debería sonar en cada momento del juego.

    6 El mapa, los lugares, las ciudades y escenarios están bien logrados, dan la sensación correcta, y dan ganas de recorrerlos.

    CONCLUSIÓN

    El juego esta bien logrado en los aspectos visuales en su mayoría, también en la animación de movimientos y combate, sin embargo es tedioso, repetitivo, sin rejugabilidad. Tiene una absoluta carencia del genero RPG y no aporta nada ni al genero ni a la saga. Es un juego limitado tanto por la historia original como por el exceso de cinemáticas y cargas, lo que tampoco ayuda a sopesar las constantes batallas contra enemigos molestos e insípidos que vagan por el mapa, los cuales solo varían en lvl pues su forma de pelear como su imagen siempre es la misma.
    El juego trata de sorprender con sistemas de comida, pesca, carreras y un farmeo ágil, sin embargo todas esas mecánicas quedan obsoletas al resultar casi inútiles para el juego, ya que no aportan realmente nada al desarrollo de los personajes, quedando en el rincón de las anécdotas.
    Tomando en cuenta todo lo anterior, el juego tiene un valor excesivo para lo mediocre que resulta al concluirlo, Es un juego que dura un par de semanas y luego quedara en el cajón guardando polvo.
    En definitiva si tuviera que definirlo en una sola palabra, seria: DECEPCIONANTE    … Expand

The main story horribly depicts the well loved anime and manga series and what seems like was mainly developed for an easy cash grab. The only thing holding this game up and what is so appealing about it is the dragon ball title. The combat is boring and repetitive as there is only one attack button unlike other games they have made in the past like the xenoverse games. This offers no opportunity for the use of different combos while fighting making it overly repetitive. The graphics at times in cinematics are beautiful but when in the game along with poor textures look as if the game was rushed. Npcs other than main people shown in the books or anime are god awful. All npcs are lifeless and overall lack character as there is no hand or face movements while they are taking. The open world experience for this game is pointless other than mainly to collect orbs which are littered throughout the map as well as going to side quests. Hunting and exploring is a bother which mainly all side quests consist of. The game mainly is also way too easy and offers no challenge as there is no difficulty option. The only times where I had fun were the main fights at the end of each ark. Overall I would not recommend this game as it obviously is designed for a quick cash grab.… Expand

    Dragon Ball Z Kakarot is a game clearly made with love and appreciation for the source material: the environments are faithfully recreated even when not integral to the gameplay, new original side-quests expand in charming ways on popular and forgotten characters alike, while many features are subtle references to various multimedial instances of the franchise's history.

    Dragon Ball Z Kakarot is a game clearly made with love and appreciation for the source material: the environments are faithfully recreated even when not integral to the gameplay, new original side-quests expand in charming ways on popular and forgotten characters alike, while many features are subtle references to various multimedial instances of the franchise's history. But sadly, as much as this game is full of love, it is almost completely devoid of any technical quality. The Combat system is overly simplistic and excruciatingly repetitive, remaining static throughout the entire experience both defensively and offensively, as the same enemy attack patterns repeat continuously and the new abilities unlocked merely provide an increased damage output. To aggravate this boredom, the challenge is non-existent, not only due to fights themselves being too easy, but also because of the possibility to carry an unlimited amount of healing items to use whenever desired, totally trivializing any fight. For this reason, the many side-quests and side-activities around the map, of which the main reward is raising your stats, end up being entirely unnecessary to the main progression. This ultimately comes off as a blessing, since all activties are incredibly shallow and devoid of any real depth: time-wasters that either provide more ridiculously easy battles or embarassingly simplistic minigames that lose all appeal after a couple of minutes, copy and pasted throughout the entire game world without a hint of variety. Even the game's main strength, its faithful retelling of the original story, doesn't deliver properly as in the second half of the game it often skips iconic story bits.    … Expand

    The game has its down moments, like loading times, looking forwards in hope of a kakarot 2 on ps5. It would be beautiful! The menus a a lil pain in the ass, but the overall game is lovely - especially when you are a dragon ball fan! A really good game when it comes to fandom. If you are hesitating about buying cause reviewes are mixed - if you are a fan of DB, dont hesitate and enjoy aThe game has its down moments, like loading times, looking forwards in hope of a kakarot 2 on ps5.

    Despite the numerous flaws, Kararot still offers a wonderful retelling of the main story, above-average graphics, and a great soundtrack, so it’s worth picking up for established and new fans of the series alike.

    Even though DBZ: Kakarot retells the same story the franchise has been telling for decades, it manages to do so in creative new ways for hardcore anime fans.

    A very few games can compare to Kakarot in terms of sheer love towards the original series and storytelling qualities. Not without its set of flaws that leave only regret not being even greater, Kakarot still manages to be a great game for fans. No, scratch that. It manages to be an amazing game! May they not stop here, and deliver more and more of love-letters like this. If it goes in the right direction, the next one could definitely be legendary.
