Report: Dragon Ball Z Kakarot Future DLC to Feature Daima Per Datamine

With Dragon Ball Daima set to launch this fall 2024, it seems Bandai Namco Entertainment plans to release the Dragon Ball Z Kakarot future DLC alongside it, which will feature the new anime show in the game.

This was spotted in the game’s files recently, which was spotted by Josou Kitsune:

Of course, given this is a datamine, we have to add in a disclaimer that not all datamined info is correct, since some could be placeholder data or something similar to it. That said, most datamines do prove to be legit, and given the game’s popularity, and the fact that a new anime is set to launch, it would make sense for Bandai Namco to capitalize on the upcoming show to drive DBZ Kakarot’s DLC sales.

If you’re not familiar with Draon Ball Daima, it’s a completely new Dragon Ball series, and is the last one developed by Dragon Ball creator the late Akira Toriyama who died earlier this year.

Here’s an overview of it (via Dragon Ball Fandom):

Hello. I’m Akira Toriyama.
I’m currently working on a new Dragon Ball.
The title is “Dragon Ball DAIMA”.
“DAIMA” is a made-up term, which in Japanese characters would be “大魔” or in English would be something like “Evil.”
Due to a conspiracy, Goku and his friends are turned small.
In order to fix things, they’ll head off to a new world!
It’s a grand adventure with intense action in an unknown and mysterious world.
Since Goku has to make up for his petite size, he uses his Nyoibo (Power Pole) to fight, something not seen in a long time.
I came up with the story and settings, as well as a lot of the designs.
I’m actually putting a lot more into this than usual!
Things will unfold that close in on the mysteries of the Dragon Ball world.
Hope you all enjoy these different-from-usual battles that are cute and powerful!!”
— Akira Toriyama

As for DBZ Kakarot, a new title update was released last week that added a new free sub story! Read up on that here. If this datamine rings true, expect an announcement from Bandai Namco soon-ish, and let’s hope there’s a release date included with that announcement as well.
