Dragon Ball Project: Multi - A 2025 Launch
Beta Test Results and Developer Feedback
The multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) game, Dragon Ball Project: Multi, based on the popular Dragon Ball franchise, is slated for a 2025 release, as declared on its official Twitter (X) account. While a precise release date remains unannounced, the Bandai Namco Entertainment title is anticipated on Steam and mobile platforms. The recent regional beta test concluded, with developers expressing gratitude for player participation and feedback. They stated the feedback will be instrumental in enhancing the game's overall enjoyment.
Developed by Ganbarion (known for One Piece game adaptations), Dragon Ball Project: Multi is a 4v4 team-based strategy game featuring iconic Dragon Ball characters like Goku, Vegeta, Gohan, Piccolo, Frieza, and more. Character strength increases throughout matches, allowing for powerful boss and player takedowns. The game boasts extensive customization options, including skins, entrance animations, and finishing moves.
The MOBA genre is a departure for the Dragon Ball franchise, which is typically associated with fighting games (such as the upcoming DRAGON BALL: Sparking! ZERO from Spike Chunsoft).
Initial beta feedback has been largely positive, though some concerns have been raised. Reddit users have described the game as "simple" and "short," comparing it to Pokemon Unite, while praising the "decent fun" factor.
However, criticism has been leveled at the in-game currency system. One player cited the "store level" requirement tied to in-app purchases as overly grindy and potentially pushing players towards spending money. Other players, however, expressed positive sentiments about the game.
