    Eu achei o jogo mt bom e bem desenvolvido, as DLC's são maravilhosas, e o jogo é mt lindo. O jogo é bem fiel a história do anime, e tbm o jeito q eles adaptaram o estilo de jogo, combinou mt com o anime.

    Its just Xenoverse with less charcters....... BUT! the graphics are faaaaaar more better, the combat fells smoother, the animations are great, its just feels great to play the original dbz story instead of a custom story (like the ninja storm games)

    The best Dragon ball game of the entire history. Please, Toei animation and Bandai, do the same thing with the Dragon Ball Super Manga. I beg you!

    El mejor juego de dragón ball en consolas ya que es un RPG en tiempo real, la historia está sumamente bien contará, además de actualizarse con dlc después de 3 años desde su salida

    El juego no está tan mal es entretenido por momentos y es divertido por agregar cosas nuevas a los juegos de dragón ball sin duda una joya infravalorada

    Great tribute to the manga and the story is very well reconstructed through the lens of this game. Gameplay is fun and every move feels impactful, boss fights are challenging, music is great and graphics are amazing. Flying accross the open world of DBZ is the most immersive way of experiencing the story. Every transformation makes you feel powerful, every fight is epic and intense.Great tribute to the manga and the story is very well reconstructed through the lens of this game.

    One: The game has a tendency to lag.

    Muy buen juego de dragón ball, con toda la esencia de uno de los mejores mangaanime de la historia, historia con unas escenas súper bn hechas, que parece que estás viendo el anime, jugabilidad como los narutos y con mundos semiabiertos a explorar, lo recomiendo muchísimo, es un juegazo

Now I know I'm late to this but DBZ Kakarot is a good way for me to relive my childhood watching Dragon Ball Z on Cartoon network but the game felt to easy once the Cell saga came and even though this game is one of my favorite DBZ based games (besides Budokai 2 and the Xenoverse games) the enemies became easier to beat and the game over all dropped in quality But it went up to an 8 for me because the Trunks DLC.… Expand

    Alles, was sich ein DBZ Fan gewünscht hat. Das Kampfsystem ist zwar nicht so deep, macht aber seinen Job und sehr viel Spaß. CyberConnect 2 bleibt für mich der Beste Anime Spieleentwickler!

    DBZ: Kakarot is the best Dragon Ball game ever made. The battle system is really amazing and easy to learn, the graphics are beautiful and the open world is awesome.
    For new fans, the RPG element might be too simple, but for true fans of the series, this game has everything they want.
    And that's what really matters! The fans!

    I felt exactly like I was play-watching the anime while playing this game. Though the game is not perfect and it's RPG mechanics leaves much to be desired, this is a wonderful game for the fans that rivals The Legacy Of Goku II in greatness.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is a great Dragon Ball game, if not one of my favorites. One person I saw wrote a review saying it was a "fake RPG". It's a hybrid of RPG, action-adventure and fighting game, zorkeon, not a "fake RPG". Though this is a great game, it does have problems, like being repetitive because of the damn robots you fight pre-Raditz. Overall, Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot is a great game with surprisingly great graphics, but it's also a bit on the grindy side because of the god **** damn robots. Anyway, I recommend this game to anyone who is fine with grinding.… Expand

    Jugabilidad
    - Sin duda en este apartado nos encontramos un juego muy pulido, no es demasiado difícil entender su mecánica, ni sufrimos en exceso con el mando en las manos cuando tenemos que movernos y maniobrar con los distintos personajes. Si bien es cierto que hay veces que que todo parece un poco lento y encajamos golpes que no deberíamos por la imposibilidad de cancelar ataques y defendernos a tiempo.
    Gráficos
    -En este apartado, su estilo gráfico de dibujo animado juega muy a su favor. Es difícil que se vean mal unos dibujos coloreados. Nada de lo que podamos quejarnos aquí.
    Música
    - Un fantástico punto sin duda, toda la música original de la serie, ataca directamente al corazón y es simplemente fantástico.
    Historia
    - Juego largo, como deben ser, con variedad de tareas que poder realizar. Nos encontramos con los personajes principales de la saga y su combate contra todos ellos. Si ya se conoce la historia, ya se sabe lo buena que es.
    Multijugador
    - El viejojuego carece de este apartado, por lo que no hay nada que decir.
    Duración
    - Muy buena. Es un juego para experimentar toda la saga pero siendo nosotros los personajes, justo lo que se podía esperar de este videojuego. Era una serie larga, es un juego largo.
    Innovacion
    - No es un juego que rompa barreras de ninguna clase. Se podría decir que es como cualquier otro juego, buscar, recolectar, matar y volver a empezar. No es algo malo, pero no hay nada destacable.    … Expand

    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.

    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.
