    Dragon Ball FighterZ feels like it hits a sweet spot, retaining the look and feel of a versus fighter while reining in the complexities that make fighting games still so hard to get into.

    It's a great fighting game, it's a great Dragon Ball game, it will entertain the amateurs and the most professional as well. At last we can say without discussion that is the best game in the Dragon Ball franchise. It's essential.

    Dragon Ball FighterZ is simply a marvel. For Dragon Ball fans it is a no-brainer, for fighting game fans it is a must-have, even for those like me who know next to nothing about the series. It is extremely easy to get into, a blast to play, and it looks outstanding. This is a sleeper of 2018 for me, and I cannot recommend it enough.

    Even though I’m not the greatest at fighting games (and usually even despise playing them), Dragon Ball FighterZ manages to make the game feel easy to get into, and quickly become rewarding by learning move sets and counter plays. While the story mode allows a bit of the customization that was found in Xenoverse, FighterZ is much more focused on being a balanced fighting game rather than an RPG, and it’s all the better for it.

    Not only is the game simply a tight, pick up and play fighter, but it is one that does the source material of Dragon Ball justice.

    It's unfortunate that its online component is unnecessarily complicated, making players jump through hoops in order to go head-to-head against one another, but there's a healthy amount of offline modes tucked away in here that combine to form one helluva package.

    We are at a point where a Dragon Ball fighting game holds its own.

This is why we play games in the first place. There have been decent DB games before this, but nothing close to FighterZ. The animation, combined with artistic graphics really set it apart from other games and it also beautifully complements the gameplay. It's so brisk, and is one of the greatest technical achievements in the genre and can't be avoided… Expand

    Achei esse jogo bem genérico, não curti e provavelmente devo estar cansado dessa franquia, afinal eles não param de sugar tudo que podem dela.

    Good animations, good combat systems and good fidelity to the original manga. Banal Story. After a while it gets too repetitive.

This game has A.I that is known to cheat. The devs made them do more damage and predict moves so you would buy their **** dlc. No. AND THE WAIT TIMES. Expect to wait over a minute for an offline battle. I wouldn’t recommend to anyone but a fan. Good luck doing a quarter circle combo on ur Xbox controller. More often than half of the time it just doesn’t do anything.… Expand
