Recreating the popular Dragon Ball Z
series’ epic combat in all its glory, Dragon Ball: Raging Blast includes a host
of exciting gameplay options including powerful and customizable attacks,
stunning HD graphics, and a variety of gameplay modes including online or
offline versus and tournament matches. Dragon Ball: Raging Blast features more
than 70 characters, including transformations, facing off against each other in
iconic battles throughout the Dragon Ball Z series’ sagas as their favorite
heroes and villains.

New interactive and massively
destructible environments lend an enhanced layer of intensity to the battle as
characters can now take immense damage from being smashed into mountains,
buildings and debris during heated battles. On top of classic signature moves,
characters also benefit from a new “Super Rising” move which allows players to
quickly fly upwards throughout large-scale battle stages, adding a new layer of
strategy and tactics to the melee. As players progress through the game and win
more battles, they receive items and Super Attacks as rewards. Players can then
utilize these with the Ultimate Customize option to configure up to three
customization profiles of each character, which can then be used in versus
battles. Dragon Ball: Raging Blast is set to deliver more explosive fighting
action than ever seen before!

Developed by acclaimed game studio
SPIKE, Dragon Ball: Raging Blast is rated “T” for teen audiences by the ESRB and
carries an MSRP of $59.99.
