    Dragon Ball Gekishin Squadra does not reinvent the wheel. Instead, incorporates all the engaging elements of other MOBAs on the market and delivers a highly entertaining experience with substantial challenge. It is not League of Legends with skins of Akira Toriyama's characters. It is a video game that provides all the necessary elements to offer enjoyable matches for every fan of this franchise.

    Dragon Ball Genkishin Squadra, from developer Ganbarion and Bandai Namco Games, is a surprisingly solid MOBA game. It takes the Dragon Ball universe and merges it beautifully within the MOBA genre without losing the essence of the IP.

    Dragon Ball: Gekishin Squadra is a great free-to-play experience especially for Dragon Ball fans, but even those that are not followers of Goku will find quite an enjoyable multiplayer alternative. The game is pretty simple, but it capitalizes on its core strengths: fun gameplay, good customization, very solid character design and a ton of potential for further character releases.

    Dragon Ball Gekishin Squadra is Bandai Namco’s answer to the stagnation of the MOBA genre, a title that forgoes the extreme complexity typical of League of Legends and Dota 2 in favor of a more immediate, dynamic, and accessible approach.

    Dragon Ball Gekishin Squadra turns a complex genre like the MOBA into an accessible and entertaining experience without losing depth in the process, while also paying tribute to Akira Toriyama’s work. Although it features a limited starting roster, few game modes, and monetization that restricts access to key content, this may very well be one of the series’ best purely online games.

    Dragon Ball: Gekishin Squadra is a very fun title that delivers surprisingly solid gameplay for a debut in a completely new genre. As a living organism, only the future will tell how it will perform, but it's a fact that if you're looking for a deep multiplayer title that's easy to get started with, Gekishin Squadra delivers that.

    Dragon Ball: Gekishin Squadra is a bold move for the franchise, venturing into the MOBA genre with a result that works and is fun to play, but still needs a bit more refinement to reach its full potential. Improving character balance, refining the interface and adding more interaction with the environments. Still, fans of the series are going to enjoy it.

    Dragon Ball Gekishin Squadra is a compact and accessible MOBA, very enjoyable once you grasp the mechanics of this specific subgenre (and especially when playing with friends!), but characterized by simplifications that at some point could limit the experience. Being a free-to-play title, and one that is thankfully free of pay-to-win dynamics or overly aggressive monetization systems, the good news is that nothing will stop you from trying it out and getting a sense of what Ganbarion is attempting with this game, which is still only at the very beginning of a potentially long journey full of new characters and content.
