Dragon Ball: The Breakers - Co-Op Survival Game Launches in October
Bandai Namco has announced that Dragon Ball: The Breakers will launch on October 14 for PC, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, and Xbox One. The game will be backward compatible with PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.
Dragon Ball: The Breakers is a multiplayer affair where a team of seven Survivors tries to escape one Raider. Survivors are regular civilians trapped in a Temporal Seam and must utilize their wits and gadgets to return home using the Super Time Machine. The Raider takes the form of a major Dragon Ball antagonist and must hunt down and eliminate the Survivors.
Bandai Namco will also be running a closed network test on August 6 and 7 on all platforms. During this session, Cell and the newly announced Frieza will be playable Raiders. Survivors can swap skins between various Dragon Ball characters, and the network test will include the player’s avatar, Oolong, and Bulma.
Those who preorder the game will receive an Android 18 Transphere and a blue scouter in-game accessory. The Special Edition of the game includes the full game, a customizable costume, the two-handed good victory pose, and a yellow dragon vehicle skin. The Bandai Namco Store exclusive Limited Edition contains a steel book, three Raider stickers, and a Cell Shell figure. A green Potara in-game accessory is also included, but it is an exclusive timed bonus on the store.
Dragon Ball: The Breakers was first announced in November of last year and ran its first closed beta test a month later.
