Dragon Ball Z Kakarot has been officially announced on stage at Xbox’s E3 2019 press conference. Players can expect to get into some intense fisticuffs action in 2020. Please check out the trailer below!

The story of Dragon Ball Z Kakarot follows the life of Goku, one of the series’ most iconic characters. It’s not all just fighting though. Players will be able to fish, eat, and train with Goku, which will no doubt result in you becoming as powerful as possible!

The Xbox store page has this to say about Dragon Ball Z Kakarot:

Experience the story of DRAGON BALL Z from epic events to light-hearted side quests, including never-before-seen story moments that answer some burning questions of Dragon Ball lore for the first time!

Play through iconic DRAGON BALL Z battles on a scale unlike any other. Fight across vast battlefields with destructible environments and experience epic boss battles that will test the limits of your combat abilities. Increase your power level and rise to the challenge!

Don’t just fight as Goku. Live as Goku. Fish, fly, eat, train, and battle your way through the DRAGON BALL Z sagas, making friends and building relationships with a massive cast of DRAGON BALL characters.

It’s sounding like Dragon Ball Z Kakarot will offer a gameplay experience unlike previous titles with a greater focus on side-quests and exploration. However, this doesn’t mean the game won’t also focus on combat and fighting. If it’s one thing the Dragon Ball games are known for, it’s intense combat and over-the-top action.

The Xbox E3 2019 press conference was an intense ride of game announcement after game announcement. If you missed any of the news while you were busy screaming about Keanu Reeves being an absolute babe, you can check out Kevin’s round-up of everything shown during the Xbox showcase.
