Dragon Ball: Breakers plunges into unfamiliar territory for the franchise. For the avid Dead by Daylight player, it’s more territory than it perceives. However, this 1v7 multiplayer game of his does more than just reskin that inspiration. While some game mechanics fall short, it’s officially spiced up with the properties of the beloved manga and anime.
The game’s two modes, Survivor and Raider, have unique elements that set them apart. Each match features his seven civilians trying to survive the celebrity onslaught. Dragon Ball villain. Teamwork is key to achieving survival, and as a result, the former shines in offline co-op. Raiders, on the other hand, can destroy entire maps or select survivors. That’s why it shines both online and offline.
However, the barebones tutorial provides little to no context for various features, including Raider Mode. For example, the gimmick that if you collect all seven Dragon Balls, you can summon Shenron and grant your wish is barely explained.
Being nearly invulnerable may make the mode seem unbalanced, but it’s actually a clever way to force survivors to face the enemy together, discouraging solo charging efforts. Unfortunately, jerky controls and an unruly camera keep the experience from reaching its potential.
Dragon Chase, for example, is a mode that temporarily activates the powers of the Z-Fighter of your choice. , camera issues are highlighted in combat-related matters, including Raider Mode.
At first glance, currencies such as TP, Spirit Siphons, Zeni, and unreasonably expensive premium cosmetics may emphasize predatory microtransaction tactics. However, daily and weekly challenges encourage you to play rather than pay to win. That said, even just trying to buy new clothes for your character can make the grind unnecessarily long.
