TheBeerus boss fight inDragon Ball Z: Kakarotis set to be one of the toughest battles in the game yet, with even the game’s producers struggling to win. Beerus will be set at level 250 during the fight, so it’s going to be a significant challenge, even for fans who have already mastered the rest of the game.
Along with theDragon Ball Z: Kakarot SuperDLC release date, Bandai Namco also released four new screenshots of the game in action. These new images showcase a meeting between Goku,Vegeta, and Beerus, and also show the three of them doing battle. They should give fans a taste of what to expect from the DLC for when it launches next week.
In the meantime, it’s clear by the DLC’s title that Bandai Namco is planning to release moreDragon Ball SuperDLC forDragon Ball Z: Kakarotdown the line. At some point, perhaps this will even include someBroly DLC, which would no doubt be hugely popular with fans of the franchise.
Whether or notDragon Ball Z: Kakarotever gets Broly DLC remains to be seen, but fans of the game at least have the Beerus DLC to look forward to next week. If it proves popular, one has to imagine that DLC for moreDragon Ball Supercharactersis in the cards, but fans will just have to stay tuned to find out.
