Dragon Ball: Zenkai Battle (ドラゴンボール ゼンカイバトル Doragon Bōru Zenkai Batoru, lit. Dragon Ball: Full-Throttle Battle) is a 2011 arcade fighting video game. In 2015, the arcade game received an update, it was renamed to Dragon Ball: Zenkai Battle and has been released in the summer of 2015 and it was originally Dragon Ball: Zenkai Battle Royale (ドラゴンボール ZENKAIバトルロイヤル Doragon Bōru Zenkai Batoru Roiyaru).
Overview[]
Zenkai Battle features a similar fighting system to that of Dragon Ball Z: Tenkaichi Tag Team. It is the first full 3D fighting game that enables characters to actually run on the ground (contrary to hovering above it like in the Budokai Tenkaichi series). Zenkai Battle also marks a milestone as it is the first commercial 3D title to use GGPO netcode. The single-player modes include battle royale and team battle, and the two-player modes include team battle. Both can be played online as national vs. mode, during which "Competition for Dragon Balls" battles randomly occur: the person who gets first place in a "Competition for Dragon Balls" in battle royale mode gets one Dragon Ball, and the winning pair of the "Competition for Dragon Balls" in team-battle mode get one Dragon Ball each. When seven Dragon Balls are collected, a special bonus is unlocked (such as playable characters like the God of Destruction Beerus).
It is possible to make playable characters wear different outfits. All of their outfits can have their color palette changed and additional accessories, such as Master Roshi's sunglasses and halos, can be added to any character. Some of the alternate outfits are: Gohan in his battle damaged outfit, Yamcha in his bandit outfit, Mr. Satan in his caped outfit, and Majin Buu in his pyjamas.
