Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot New DLC “Goku’s Next Journey” Trailer:

The wish of 10 years ago has now been granted. Goku meets Uub in DRAGON BALL Z: KAKAROT’s new DLC – Goku’s Next Journey, coming in February 2024. #DBZK #dbzkakarot

Who Is Uub?

Any Dragon Ball Z fan should instantly be able to recognize Uub, but for those newer to the series and maybe became fans when Dragon Ball Super aired, Uub is a reincarnation of evil Buu. At the end of Dragon Ball Z, right before the destruction of Kid Buu, Goku makes a wish saying he hopes that one day he hopes that Kid Buu will return, but as a good person so that they can have another rematch.

That wish ends up coming true, as 10 years later, during a new martial arts tournament, Goku learns of the participation of a mysterious fighter who is supposedly the strongest pure Earthling. As it turns out, this fighter is a child named Uub, and though Goku tries to go all out against him, he soon learns that Uub has yet to achieve his full potential. This eventually leads to Goku retreating off with Uub so that he can train him to become to fighter he’s meant to be.

We later see Uub in Dragon Ball GT, though that series isn’t considered canon. He has yet to make a reappearance in the Super anime.

If it wasn’t also obvious, Uub spelt backwards is Buu.

No firm release date has been given outside of Feb. 2024, but that should change very soon. Expect a title update to be released alongside the new DLC, and once we know more, we’ll be sure to let our readers know. Speaking of title updates, the latest one released was back in December, which you can read about here.

Outside of a new DBZ: Kakarot DLC announcement, a new trailer for Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero is set to be unleashed today too.
