    • Details on digital pre-order availability will be available at a later date.

  • Special Edition: This includes the full game, a Customizable Costume, a Dragon (Yellow) Vehicle Skin, a Two-Handed Good Victory Pose, an Android 18 (Skill: Wall Kick) Transphere, and a Scouter (Blue) Accessory.

The Escapist previewed The Breakers last December and found it to be a pretty promising experience overall. The mechanics for survival and success sound a bit complex at first, but it’s something Dragon Ball fans will probably be willing to learn.

The wait for the October release date of Dragon Ball: The Breakers is on.
