"Dragon Ball Project: Multi Set for 2025 Release"

Bandai Namco's highly anticipated Dragon Ball MOBA, Dragon Ball Project: Multi, has officially announced its release window for 2025, following the successful conclusion of its beta testing phase. Dive in to discover more about this exciting announcement and what to expect from Dragon Ball Project: Multi.

Dragon Ball Project: Multi Set to Launch in 2025

Dragon Ball Project: Multi, a dynamic multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) game rooted in the legendary Dragon Ball anime and manga universe, is gearing up for a 2025 release, as revealed on its official Twitter (X) account. While a precise launch date remains under wraps, fans can look forward to accessing the game on both Steam and mobile platforms. The recent regional beta test has concluded, and the developers at Bandai Namco expressed their heartfelt gratitude to the community for their participation. "We sincerely thank everyone for taking part in the Regional [Beta] Test. All the valuable input we have received from our players will help our development team strive to make the game even more entertaining."

Crafted by Ganbarion, renowned for their work on One Piece video game adaptations, Dragon Ball Project: Multi promises a thrilling 4v4 team-based strategy experience. Players will have the opportunity to step into the shoes of iconic Dragon Ball characters such as Goku, Vegeta, Gohan, Piccolo, Frieza, and more. The game's narrative teases, "The Hero characters you take control of will grow in strength as the round progresses, giving you a chance to obliterate enemy players and bosses alike." Moreover, the game will offer extensive customization, including various skins, entrance animations, and finisher moves.

The Dragon Ball community has shown keen interest in this MOBA, given the franchise's strong association with the fighting game genre, highlighted by the upcoming DRAGON BALL: Sparking! ZERO by Spike Chunsoft. Feedback from the beta test has been largely positive, with some players describing it as "decent fun," although it's been noted that the gameplay is "incredibly simple (and short), more akin to something like Pokemon Unite," according to a Reddit user.

Yet, not all feedback was unanimously positive. Some players raised concerns about the game's currency system. One player remarked that their "only real complaint" is the requirement to achieve a certain 'store level' through in-game currency purchases, which feels "SUPER grindy" and seems designed to encourage players to buy Heroes. On a brighter note, u/Icechillay succinctly stated their appreciation, simply saying, "I like the game."
