A different type of Dragon Ball game is on the way in 2022, with Bandai Namco announcing plans to kick survival into full gear when Dragon Ball: The Breakers hits consoles and PC. The asymmetrical online action game has seven players taking on the role of Survivors, with another player entering the game as their rival, known as the Raider.

Playable Raiders include Cell, Buu, and Frieza, so everyone else is going to have to try and survive against them while they wreak havoc around the environment. Check out a trailer for an idea of how it plays.

Some of the key features:

• Escape as a Team… Or on Your Own! – Cooperate with others while there is still time, but the Raider or other Survivors’ decision might force you to go at it alone. What will be your playstyle?
• Trapped in a Temporal Seam – Escape from a large map composed of several areas, but be careful! The Raider is always looking for you and may destroy areas to reduce your living space, making your chance of escaping always more limited…
• Enjoy Three First Iconic Raiders… Cell, Buu, and Frieza! – From the Dragon Ball franchise—As a Raider you will enjoy overwhelming powers to hunt and wipe out survivors. Master each Raider’s power to track, catch your victims to evolve and get even more powerful!
• Customize in Your Likeness – Whether you are a Raider or a Survivor, choose your progression path and unlock perks, skins, etc. to fine tune your own personal strategy to escape as a Survivor, or hunt as a Raider…
• Enjoy Unique Power-Ups and Items – Vehicles, weapons, grappling hooks… make the most of each gimmick to face against the Raider and struggle for your life!

Dragon Ball: The Breakers will be available on PS4, Xbox One, Switch, and PC.
