Bandai Namco has finally revealed the official Dragon Ball: The Breakers release date and it’s set for October 14,, 2022! The game is an 8-player multiplayer game that takes place in the Dragon Ball Xenoverse universe.
DRAGON BALL: THE BREAKERS is an 8-player multiplayer game that pits seven Survivors against a powerful Raider – one of the major antagonists from the franchise. Raiders uses their overwhelming strength and increasingly powerful evolutions to hunt and defeat the Survivors.
Survivors are regular civilians caught in a “Temporal Seam,” trapping them in a place where space and time are in disarray. The main objective of Survivors is to escape using various gadgets, the most valuable of which are Transpheres that contain the souls of Super warriors and grant special abilities and powers. In this dangerous environment, the hope is to use the Super Time Machine to escape before their enemy becomes unstoppable.
Players are also now encouraged to register for the game’s Closed Network Test on Bandai Namco’s official website. Both the newly announced Raider Frieza and the previously revealed Raider Cell will be available to play during the test.
