The upcoming Season 2 ofDragon Ball: The Breakers, starting February 16, is set to introduce one of the franchise’s most iconic characters to the game as a Raider. The release of the asymmetricalDragon Ball Zgame late last year was a stark contrast to the franchise’s typical fanfare of high-powered action and fighting games. Rather than putting players in charge of the main heroes, the game tasks a team of seven ordinary people with surviving againstpowerful villains like Cell and Frieza. Now, the newest update features one ofDragon Ball’s most beloved characters.
While the asymmetrical multiplayer game sets itself apart from otherDragon Ball Zgames,Dragon Ball: The Breakershas been met with largely mixed reception since its launch. Fans have been critical of the game’s small roster with many of the franchise’s most iconic characters not included. Matchmaking was also a major issue early in the game’s life with frequent connection errors and issues with cross-platform play. Now, the game’s roster is set to grow with multiple familiar faces joining the game including the fearsome Prince of Saiyans, Vegeta.
