Game News This Dragon Ball video game tells the story of the deaths of Goku and Vegeta… and it’s awesome!
There is no shortage of fights between Goku and Vegeta, whether in manga, movies or anime. However, a video game recounted the final battle between the two rivals…
For most of you, this game will mean nothing: Dragon Ball Online is an MMO set in the Dragon Ball Z universe, 216 years after the end of the manga.. The title was developed by Bandai Namco and released on February 5, 2010, first in South Korea and then gradually in other Asian countries. It will definitively close its servers on October 31, 2013 without releasing it to us, although unofficial versions are still circulating. But what fans love about Dragon Ball Online is the way it takes the story of the base manga and tells its sequel, for example by providing its own version of the deaths of Goku and Vegeta.
A tribute to the manga
A version that, as we remind you, is not canonical. The game tells the story of Goku and Vegeta leaving Earth to have one final battle as they don’t have much time left to live. Years later, a supernova is discovered that may have been caused by this final clash. An ending that perfectly suits the two fighters and eternal rivals and offers the fan the opportunity to imagine a final battle between the two characters.
In the MMORPG Dragon Ball Online, which is set far in the future, it actually tells how Goku and Vegeta die and it is so cool

As mentioned above, the story takes place in a world where 216 years have passed since the end of the manga. The title gives you the opportunity to play a fully customizable character between the Earthlings, the Namekians now living on Earth and the Majin (clone of Buu or even children of the character of Majin Buu). Depending on the race chosen, several classes are available to the player.
As for the story, you find yourself in a world where martial arts have gained popularity. Thanks to a work written by Son Gohan that allows anyone to use Ki, and thanks to numerous martial arts schools opened by iconic characters such as Krillin or Goten and Trunks.
A game that gave birth to others!
Although Dragon Ball Online isn’t really relevant today, you should know that Dragon Ball Xenoverse (or its sequel) wouldn’t be relevant without it. would probably never have seen the light of day. In fact, Xenoverse takes many elements from its predecessor, whether it is the embodiment of a race from the Dragon Ball universe or the addition of the Frieza and Saiyan races. As for the antagonists, we also find Mira and Towa in Xenoverse. Finally, we can mention the presence of “Trunks from the Future” to help the player in his quest. In addition, Dragon Ball Heroes, an arcade game exclusive to Japan, also includes these elements.
