    DRAGON BALL: THE BREAKERS is a 1-on-7 online asymmetrical action game in which a band of seven everyday humans tries to survive the Raider (a classic DRAGON BALL rival such as Cell and Frieza) who will hunt and evolve into an unstoppable force.    … Expand

    The Winters' Expansion for Resident Evil Village is a fine addition to the game and a solid expansion that fans of the franchise shouldn't miss. Shadows of Rose's story is underwhelming, but the gameplay is classic Resident Evil through and through, and the Mercenaries additions should at least appeal to fans of that action-heavy game mode.

    Dragon Ball: The Breakers presented an exciting and sometimes funny concept. However, the lack of content and the long waits between each match make staying hooked very difficult.

    Dragon Ball: The Breakers brings an incredibly unique spin on asymmetrical multiplayer, and while the foundations are strong, it still needs a bit of work to truly be something special.

    Dragon Ball: The Breakers is a breath of fresh air for a license that is going around in circles in video games. The trouble is that having a good idea is not enough, you still have to exploit it well. Fun with friends, it is quickly frustrating with strangers, due to its excessive lack of balance and quickly limited gameplay. Also the game is ugly and technically belongs to the PS3 X360 eras.

    I'm anxious to see where Breakers is one year from now as it definitely has the potential to find its footing, but for now, this might be a recommendation to hardcore Dragon Ball fans only.

    Dragon Ball: The Breakers comes from an interesting and nice basic idea, but every aspect of the game is insufficient, if not disastrous, even if you are a long-lasting fan of Dragon Ball.

    Dragon Ball: The Breakers is broken. In their efforts to slap a Dragon Ball coat of paint onto the world of asymmetrical horror-multiplayer action, Bandai Namco has failed to put any care or consideration into the gameplay mechanics that make games like these so fun and enjoyable. Mixed with matchmaking issues and egregious paid gacha mechanics, this is a poor attempt at live-service multiplayer hidden behind the veil of 90s anime nostalgia.

    Très bon jeu. Honnêtement, c'est amusant, que ce soit en solo avec des joueurs inconnus ou aves ses potes.
    Ce jeu a été victime du bashing    Très bon jeu. Honnêtement, c'est amusant, que ce soit en solo avec des joueurs inconnus ou aves ses potes.
    Ce jeu a été victime du bashing ambiant et les testeurs officiels n'ont pas pris en compte le faible prix du jeu. POur 15 euros, on en a vraiment pour son argent !

    Je recommande, beaucoup plus fun que beaucoup de jeux !    … Expand

    This game is clearly underrated.
    It's fun, dynamic and for the price ($15), I'm really enjoying it.
    Season is incoming with more bad guys    This game is clearly underrated.
    It's fun, dynamic and for the price ($15), I'm really enjoying it.

    Season is incoming with more bad guys (Vegeta, on top of Freeza, Cell & Buu) and more survivor.
    You take a lot of fun as a villain and as a survivor. I don't understand this DB-bashing except for the graphic environnment with a Xenoverse 2 vibes, but I'm not shocked at all.

    Try it, you'll like it !    … Expand

    Good-
    It's an intriguing elevator pitch that the game mostly does right by; core concept is fun, and the game does it well enough;    Good-
    It's an intriguing elevator pitch that the game mostly does right by; core concept is fun, and the game does it well enough; monetization is surprisingly fair; the attempts at a story, while falling flat, do touch upon some interesting ideas.

    Bad-
    The production values are terrible; the storytelling is awful; the tutorialization is really bad; the UX and UI are obtuse; the camera and controls can fight the player a lot.

    Thoughts-
    If you do manage to sit through all of the game’s many, many, many failings, you will at the very least enjoy the core here on a fundamental level, and definitely something that’s enjoyable thanks to how it reconciles its bizarre elevator pitch with the trappings of a beloved IP. I have a lot of complaints about The Breakers, but I still like it enough that I plan to keep playing a game or two daily for at the very least the foreseeable future. It obviously does enough right at a base level to remain engaging, if nothing else.    … Expand

    Connection issues, awful controls and an incredibly unexciting gameplay design. Dragon Ball deserves far better than this
