Part of what made the games so special was the way in which they allowed players to completely relive the events of each Saga, inserting themselves as Goku, Vegeta, and more as you battle your way against Dragon Ball’s biggest villains.
Given that the last game came out in 2007, there is a good chance this new entry will provide a much more updated gaming experience. With the reveal of Super Saiyan Goku already confirmed, the Super Saga and subsequent films are likely to play a large role in this new Budokai Tenkaichi game.
This new announcement trailer may only be a short teaser however, it does ask the audience to “prepare for Battle” as “a new Budokai Tenkaichi begins.” And given early reactions to the trailer online, it appears fans are more than ready to begin preparing for this next installment and are excited to see how the series evolves on current-gen consoles.
