Dragon Ball Saga's Multiverse Debut in 2025

Bandai Namco's highly anticipated Dragon Ball MOBA, Dragon Ball Project: Multi, has revealed a 2025 release window following a successful beta test. This article delves into the announcement and game details.

Dragon Ball Project: Multi - A 2025 Launch

Beta Test Complete, 2025 Release Confirmed

Bandai Namco's official channels announced this week that Dragon Ball Project: Multi, a team-based MOBA featuring beloved Dragon Ball characters, will launch sometime in 2025. While a precise date remains unannounced, the game is slated for release on Steam and mobile platforms. Developers expressed gratitude for the feedback received during the recent regional beta test, promising to incorporate player suggestions for an improved experience.

Developed by Ganbarion (known for their One Piece game adaptations), Dragon Ball Project: Multi is a 4v4 strategy game. Players control iconic characters like Goku, Vegeta, Gohan, Piccolo, Frieza, and many more, watching their power grow throughout matches. The game boasts extensive customization options, including unique skins and character animations.

The MOBA genre is a new direction for the Dragon Ball franchise, known primarily for its fighting games (like the upcoming DRAGON BALL: Sparking! ZERO from Spike Chunsoft). While the beta test generated mostly positive feedback, some concerns have been raised.

Reddit users have described the gameplay as "simple" and "short," similar to Pokémon Unite, but still "decent fun." However, criticism was leveled at the in-game currency system, with some players finding the required "store level" tied to in-app purchases excessively grindy. Despite these concerns, other players voiced overall positive opinions. The game's developers will be hoping to address these concerns before the official release.
