    It's a dream game for Dragon Ball die-hards, a great new way to test your skills for fighting game nuts and an all-around great experience for everyone else in between. The story and arcade modes present plenty of challenge and things to keep you occupied, and the roster is large enough to make no two battles feel the same. And, refreshingly, the online modes appeal to not just those who have immersed themselves in online battles for years, but newcomers and even just the mildly interested as well. At present time, the PS4 version looks to be the one to get due to a few issues with the Xbox One's online capabilities, but both versions perform even better than you might have hoped. For a game with nearly a full year of hype behind it, Dragon Ball FighterZ delivers in ways that will exceed even the most lofty of expectations. This is a fighting game for the ages.

    While there have been many fighting games based on the Dragon Ball franchise, Dragon Ball FighterZ marks a modern approach through the means of fast-paced action. From its breathtaking visuals to ease of gameplay mastery, the new fighter is a good stepping stone to expand the fan base of the genre. However, it may not satisfy players who are looking for complexity.

    Dragon Ball FighterZ is one of the best Fighting games that holds an Anime License. The package brings us great visuals, fun gameplay and a rich content making it one of the most memorable experiences in this genre.

    Successfully bridging the gap between the casual and hardcore crowds, Dragon Ball FighterZ is an excellent, gorgeous fighter that can draw you in, whether you're a fan of the franchise or not.

    If you’re looking for a fighter, there is simply nothing better on the market than Dragon Ball FighterZ in terms of what it offers as a 2D, high action brawler.

    A brilliant fighting game for newcomers, and a wonderful one for genre fans, that somehow still manages to feel like a disappointment for so comprehensively failing to bring its two demographics together. [Apr 2018, p.112]

    Xenoverse is decent, but I haven't enjoyed a Dragon Ball fighting game this much since Tenkaichi 3. You can watch some people play on YouTubeXenoverse is decent, but I haven't enjoyed a Dragon Ball fighting game this much since Tenkaichi 3. You can watch some people play on YouTube and it'll look like it's simple and easy, but there's a lot of depth to fighting and the game has brilliant mechanics. It makes sense for the game to not have a 1v1 mode because the fights would end quickly. Overall this is a great game that I reccomend to Dragon Ball fans.… Expand

    Quite possibly the best 2D fighter ever made. This is why we play games in the first place. There have been decent DB games before this, butQuite possibly the best 2D fighter ever made. 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

Probably one of the best, if not THE best, 2D fighting game of the decade, at least in the DBZ universe. It´s dynamic, fast paced, fun and challenging. The only downside is that most of the characters by now are paid, and in comparison to the full roster, the vanilla one feels kinda empty, but you can pick the remaining characters at steam sales for a very low price. I CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH, BUY THIS GAME, YOU WON´T REGRET IT.… Expand

Todo lo que debería tener un buen juego de lucha está aquí y claro como muchos han dicho, las imágenes son asombrosas y un increíble Gameplay. Fue muy inteligente permitir que una verdadera compañía de juegos de lucha hiciera este título, y realmente muestra cuán dedicados estaban al proyecto. Claro esta, hay algunos problemas de equilibrio que no deberían existir para un juego completo (ONLINE). Pero, esos se solucionarán pronto ya que esta teniendo mucho soporte.… Expand

Battles soon get repetitive but I pushed myself to beat this game. There are three main stories that last for about 12 hours. Don't forget to use three habilites in the main campaign because I found it out when I was at the end of the second story. The best of the main story is that it has many scenes and you get to see most of dragon ball characters just being themselves. If you want to beat the enemies easily just press the square button and the R2 when the enemy is far or defending. I don't think this game deserves more than an 8. PS: What's with the huge hands that all the characters have? Feels weird.… Expand

    Per non parlare poi dei tasti ma che CAZZO di gioco
    Picchiaduro utilizza questi tasti .
    L'unico punto forte è la storia che non ti puoi godere al massimo per colpa dei problemi elencati prima .
