In the end, Kakarot is a gift to longtime Dragon Ball fans and an excellent first entry to anyone willing to meet the franchise.

Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot was a gorgeous game on other platforms and one of the better Dragon Ball games when it launched a little while ago. It's great to see it translate so well to Nintendo's hybrid system in a better-than-expected conversion that includes new features, and some DLC right from the get go.

The full, compact story, an equally complete cast of memorable characters and an abundance of opportunities to unleash our Kamehameha, Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot is a title that players should not miss. Despite some inconsistencies in gameplay and poor development decisions, Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot brings forth the nostalgia and glory of Goku’s saga, leaving only a sweet sense behind.

In the epic battle between the forces of bad Switch ports and great Switch ports, Goku and his friends take the size of the good guys, with this game being a great port of a good game with loads of extra content and good performance on Nintendo's small hybrid console.

While its game world is not as fully explored as in other JRPGs, what we have here is a real work of fan service, topped off with praiseworthy graphics and art style, and a fantastic audio work. All this might not be enough to convince those who are not keen on Dragon Ball, but its fans will be delighted with Kakarot.

Someone's bound to get a DBZ action/adventure game right one of these days, but unfortunately this one's a few Dragon Balls short of summoning Shenron, if you know what I mean. [Issue #56 – November/December 2021, p. 68]

The storyline with the numerous characters and pretty cutscenes is neatly told and provides good entertainment for the most part. The excitingly staged battles are always a joy thanks to the simple controls and only gradually become rather one-sided. In addition, the various approaches in the course of the game, such as cooking and hunting, cut a good figure and loosen up the gameplay enormously. The implementation for the Nintendo Switch is also really fun and the new content is also convincing. Those who would like to have another interesting game of the well-known series should definitely take a closer look at "Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot" for the Nintendo console.… Expand
