    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.

    Game recommended for Dragon Ball fans only. I enjoyed it but it has many flaws, it lacks epic moments from the anime, the story is sometimes too short, the music is missing, the fights are all the same, the open world is boring.

    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

    The game was good, the gameplay was decent but the problem with it that it was repetitive in some way or another, and the dynamic scenes was a cure for the blind tbh, but the filler in the game literally had me stop playing it for like 3 months, overall if you found the deluxe edition with a sale on it, and you're a dbz fan, BUY IT IMMEDIATELY

    Dragon Ball game for Dragon Ball fans.
    Good fights and visuals, but it always stucks on the same thing.

    Great tribute to the manga and the story is very well reconstructed through the lens of this game.

    This looks like a PS3 game. In my opinion this is a wasted chance to have THE Dragon Ball game.
    If you are fan you'll have some fun exploring the world that looks really like the anime, and trying all the characters. But combat system become soon boring; if you expect an evolution from the PS2 titles (that are still the best DB games) you will be disappointed.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. You really want this to be a good game. You do. It looks beautiful, the game play is fun. Huge open world. But it sucks. It's literally one of the worst video games I've ever played in my life. I image it was programmed by a bunch of over the hill has beens. It plays like a piece of crap super Nintendo game. The controls are horrible. HORRIBLE!! Combat is boring. Spam spam spam spam. One button to do it all. And the bosses suck. First real boss you fight is Vegeta. He is not challenging to fight. But rather than fix this the "programmers" decided to have Vegeta cheat instead. Literally if you start winning the game spams and causes damage and knocks you out. You can be right in the middle of a special move, with a beam of energy with Vegeta slammed into the ground, doesn't matter YOU GET HIT instead, and then you lose you're power and can't move (something you CANNOT do to your enemy) and then one hit causes over 1000 damage. So it's practically impossible to beat him. I gave up after thirty minutes and asking myself, why am I doing this? Why am I getting frustrated on a D title game? This game isn't worth investing any time into whatsoever. I'm glad I got it on sale. Do not waste your money on this. This game sucks. I am not over exaggerating. It blows so bad. Wait, it will be free on game pass or psn. In about a year no one will be even willing to pay $5 for this hot garbage and it'll be free. Don't waste you're money. You'd be better off buy fentanyl over this. On top of the terrible 7 generation old game mechanics, the game constantly crashes. Yea, seriously, and it's not even optimized yet. This game is truly one of the worst games ever made. Made by people who used to know how to make games but didn't keep up with the times. If you're a Dragon Ball Z fan I would avoid it because it's going to put such a bad taste in your mouth its going to ruin it. Absolutely garbage.… Expand

    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.

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

    Clunky gameplay filled with grind, boring content, unintuitive ui, pointless game mechanics and just overall lack of polish. I regret spending money on this game. I'm sure i'd have more fun just rewatching the anime. I fell for it because of the high review scores but now I know that they are just flooded with fanboys. The truth is that this game is much below average.

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

    - 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.

    Prós :
    - Respeito ao material original (ex: assim como no anime shenlong evolui seus desejos a partir dos eventos ocorridos na história, talvez o único jogo de dbz que eu tenha visto isso, achei bem bacana)
    - Jogabilidade fácil e responsiva
    - World build (áreas semi abertas)
    - Trilha sonora (conseguiram pegar licença de algumas trilhas do anime)
    - Diversidade de personagens ao decorrer das sagas
    - Mini games (voar pra que? se posso dirigir um **** carro futurista)
    - Cutscenes (CyberConnect2 nunca falha nesse quesito)

    Contras
    - Sistema Rpg bem raso
    - Side quests interessantes pra quem busca mais sobre o universo e tbm pode-se encontrar referências ao clássico mas nada mt "memorável"
    - As batalhas de boss que o jogo possui são um ponto forte dele porém são escassas com a mais interessante sendo pra mim a do Cell

    Ps: pra quem busca um Rpg esse jogo pode trazer uma grande decepção, na minha opinião o marketing desse jogo deveria ter sido declarado como Ação/Aventura e não Rpg.

    - 7/10 Com toda certeza um dos melhores jogos da franquia até o momento, apesar de certa decepção por não corresponder minhas expectativas no quesito Rpg, é absolutamente inegável sua maestria como Adventure game com elementos de Rpg.    … Expand

    Was really hyped for this game but was ultimately disappointed. The combat system is absolutely pathetic and resorts to cheap tactics like super armor to prolong fights making combat ultimately a bother. The soundtrack was ultimately badly placed and repetitive absolutely killing the hype and emotion in some of the best, most intense moments of dragon ball depicted and pales in comparisonWas really hyped for this game but was ultimately disappointed. The combat system is absolutely pathetic and resorts to cheap tactics like super armor to prolong fights making combat ultimately a bother. The soundtrack was ultimately badly placed and repetitive absolutely killing the hype and emotion in some of the best, most intense moments of dragon ball depicted and pales in comparison to previous DB Games such as Raging Blast 2. Sidequests were repetitive and gave minimal rewards which in the end left me not even wanting to do them.

    As a retelling of the epic of what is dragon ball z this game provides a solid experience and also adds a bit more with the small tidbits and cool side information and interactions, you can have with the main as well as side cast through your exploration of the world and through the many sidequests. The game features some cool features, side games, and mechanics such as the fishing a car racing modes, having chi chi cook meals, being able to train at capsule corp as well as having Bulma build things for you with raw materials found in the world are features that dragon ball fans are sure to appreciate. The community board is also a fun mechanic implemented which gives you a bit of customization based on how you want to play the game, The cell shading art style of this game is drop-dead gorgeous and really brings life to some of the most intense, high octane moments in the game. The open-world aspect of this game is solid at best but has room for improvement.

    All in all, if you are a dragon ball fan looking to experience dragon ball z this is a solid game at best for you. But unfortunately, even with myself being a die-hard Dragon ball fan for 14+ years I was left disappointed as this game had a lot more potential, This is ultimately a video game and the flaws it has as a game cannot just be ignored    … Expand

    If we go saga by saga then saiyan saga is probably the best saga in terms of quality of content and delivery of this content. We see Goku-Gohan moments, we see growth of Gohan, we see that Piccolo was almost always around and he started to care about Gohan, we see what other fighters did before training with Kami and how Piccolo recognised their power. Nappa was a monster just like in the anime. Fight with Vegeta was done right. In short almost every key moment was done right. But other sagas were... BAD. Friezas saga gave no emotions anime game, Dodoria and Zarbon were scary in the anime, Ginyu Force was a real threat in the anime and none of that is in the game, iconic moments were all very poorly done, super saiyan was... I honestly don't even know how to express my disappointment. Cell/androids is my favorite saga in the anime, but in kakarot it's the worst saga, it's empty, SS2 Gohan is good, but before SS2 Gohan everything is so poorly done, iconic moments like introduction of Trunks, Androids, Tien blasting Cell, Final Flash, Goku vs Cell all of that was pretty much either rushed or skipped all together. Buu saga was boring until Vegito which was pretty much the end of the main story with only Kid Buu left to defeat. SS3 was skipped, majin Vegeta was not even a thing in this game.

Et pour couronner le tout, le système de combat est pauvre, ce qui couplé à la difficulté risible de ces derniers, les rends très vite ennuyant.

Once you get over the initial buzz of flying around the open world as Goku in an RPG, it quickly makes way for tedium. The open world levels are colourful and expansive, but the side content is completely dull and uninteresting. The main story is the best thing about this game, but it’s the same sagas we’ve been replaying in games for 2 decades. As far as the 3D arena fighting goes, I felt that Dragon Ball Xenoverse games pretty much nailed it. DBZ Kakarot seems to have taken a step back and made the fighting feel clunkier. When you aren’t fighting, you’ll be flying around collecting orbs and cooking recipes, playing inanely boring side quests and trying not to break the controller when you come up against the game’s random fluctuations of awful difficulty balancing. Sad to say that this in all honesty will be my last DBZ game purchase until they come up with new stories and more satisfying gameplay, this game was a sour note to end on. If you’re a DBZ fan there is enjoyment to be had and is no doubt rated higher by fans. As a game its boring and pretty tedious.… Expand

    A great collection for the fans of the anime, good combat system, beautiful cutscenes and graphics. I love the book collection with the relation chart. The bad thing are: side quests are boring, random enemies found flying around the maps are a pain and boring to fight, unnecessary amount of things that doesn’t really matter to collect like metals, food, materials and orbs, fortunatelyA great collection for the fans of the anime, good combat system, beautiful cutscenes and graphics.

    Como fan de Dragon Ball toda mi vida debo decir que el juego me ha gustado bastante y que lo he disfrutado de principio a fin, pero eso no quita que tenga bastantes carencias. El combate, para mí, muy parecido a los Tenkaichi de la PS2 y muy disfrutable con escenarios grandes y destructibles.

El combate, para mí, muy parecido a los Tenkaichi de la PS2 y muy disfrutable con escenarios grandes y destructibles. La BSO con los temas originales de la serie anime son increíbles y haces que disfrutes más de las escenas más épicas. A nivel gráfico es un juego normal, con estética anime, nada revolucionario. El mundo abierto es bonito, te dan ganas de explorar para buscar misiones y algunas objetos pero esto cansa después de unas cuantas horas de juego. Y por último, la historia, que abarca desde la llegada de Raditz a La Tierra hasta la amenaza del monstruo Buu. Creo que a Cyberconnect le faltado más tiempo de desarrollo, porque se nota que en las dos primeras sagas le metieron bastante trabajo y en las de Cell y Buu fueron corriendo porque faltan bastantes momentos de la historia y algunos resumidos y contados con imágenes estáticas con texto. Es un problema del juego y se nota bastante. A pesar de esto, como fan de DBZ es un juego que disfrutas de principio a fin. Recomedado.… Expand

    My favorite (current gen) DBZ Game. Amazing story portrayal with only some minor changes. Many hours of fun. Any True DBZ fan will want to play this game. Its a blast. I hope they make more games like this in the Future.

    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.
