While the player only ever controls certain key characters, Goku, Vegeta, Piccolo, Gohan and Trunks, every Z fighter will make an appearance, usually in the form of an ally. But just like their tight adherence to the story, this comes with both its strengths and its weaknesses. The developers have done all they can to pack every aspect of the memorable fight scenes into this game.
While the handling of the story is a huge part of Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot, another big aspect is the gameplay. If, however, you are one of the many people who roll their eyes at the thought of Super Saiyan transformations and countless Dragon Ball fueled resurrections, this game is unlikely to win you over. story, all the best that DBZ has to offer is captured in Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot. While some minor things are omitted, like not forcing players to experience the often maligned Garlick Jr. While this may be a struggle for some, I do think this may be a great way for those interested in DBZ to experience the story. Not till a highlight came up did I really pay attention.

However, I never fully appreciated how I let a lot of the series flow in the background while doing other things. I’ve rewatched DBZ a couple of times before. This will make this game a struggle even for some fans. I’d hate to miss one of those high points. Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot does allow the player to skip cutscenes, but unless I knew there wasn’t anything exciting coming I didn’t want to use this function. And while some of these moments are fantastic to experience again many are just throwaway exposition. This was an ongoing struggle with this game for me. The rest of the time was dialogue filled cutscenes. At one point during the series of fights with Frieza, I got to play two five-ish minute fights over the course of an hour. What I forget about is all the talking that doesn’t fall into any of these. Of cool transformation, and the fun comedic moments in between that keep the story fun. Whenever I think about DBZ I always think of the high octane battle. While this leads to capturing the best moments the series has to offer, it also leads to some especially slow stretches as well. It was obviously done by people who truly cared about delivering a rewarding experience that let gamers relive all those stories.
When talking about this game I feel it has to be acknowledged that this is probably the most faithful adaptation of Dragon Ball Z fans will ever get out of a video game. While Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot never reaches these heights of that game’s fun there are some great times to be had. With the release of Dragon Ball FighterZ two years ago, we got an amazing fighting game that both paid homage to its source material while also just being a blast to play.
