In Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot, relive Goku's tale! Beyond the great fights, fight, fish, eat, and train alongside Goku to get a taste of life in the Dragon Ball Z universe. As you go through the game, you'll discover new regions and experiences, as well as build powerful ties with other Dragon Ball Z characters.

Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot is an open-world action role-playing game based on the Dragon Ball series, developed by CyberConnect2 and released by Bandai Namco Entertainment. The game follows Goku and the Z-Fighters through several events of the Dragon Ball Z anime series, including anime-exclusive plots and moments.

The game is a fighting RPG in the genre of Dragon Ball Xenoverse and its sequel. While the game is described as an open world, it is not totally seamless since the landscapes are separated into separate hubs that are restricted until specific points in the storyline are reached. These places are big and could be traveled by air or vehicle.

Enemies are spread over the map, and if you're caught, they'll try to attack you. Various friendly NPCs may be found all across the world, whether in towns, villages, or isolated areas. Fishing and baseball are two of the mini-games available.

There are four narratives in the game: the Saiyan Saga, the Namek Saga, the Android Saga, and the Buu Saga. Intermissions are brief periods of free time in the main plot between sagas. You have more flexibility to explore, train, and finish side storylines. It's also a good time to start planning for the next Saga. You may also alter your controlled character and their supporting players.

Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot currently has seven playable characters that you will control throughout the adventure. Goku, Vegeta, Gohan, Piccolo, Future Trunks, Gotenks, and Vegito are among them. You'll unlock additional characters to play as you advance through the game.

In addition to the main characters, you will also be able to choose between two secondary supporting characters, each with their own unique techniques, to assist you in your battle.

Additionally, the game has a Cooking mechanism that allows you to prepare meals that can increase stats permanently or provide temporary bonuses. You can consume raw foods, cook food over a campfire, or hire a cook to make meals for you.

Characters can use Training Grounds to engage in Mental Simulation Training against mental images of various competitors in order to acquire Super Attacks. To participate in Mental Simulation Training, D-Medals are necessary as payment. Training Grounds are the only way to unlock some Super Attacks.

Once the Skill Tree and any other conditions for accessing the activity are met, D-Medals are needed to enter training exercises in the Training Grounds. D-Medals can be found in the world or earned as a reward for completing main missions, side missions, Turtle School Training Manual tasks, and unlocking a particular amount of Z-Encyclopedia Entries.

Each exercise costs a specific amount of D-Medals, so collecting them anytime you see one in the field is a smart idea. D-Medals must be manually picked up in the field by clicking the Examine button.
