Dragon Ball Z Extreme Butoden New Update Adds Online Multiplayer, Assist Characters And More

Dragon Ball Z Extreme Butoden, the fighting game based on the Dragon Ball series developed by Arc System works, has been released in North America and Europe a few months back but Japanese players have been able to enjoy the new 2D fighting game since last Summer. The game managed to become somewhat successful thanks to its gameplay features but there’s no denying that Dragon Ball Z Extreme Butoden lacked some very important features, such as an online multiplayer mode and others. Today, this mode has finally been added to the game, at least for the Japanese version of the game.

The new Dragon Ball Z Extreme Butoden update not only adds the online multiplayer mode to the game but also an Extreme Butoden mode as well as new Assist Characters such as Super Saiyan 4 Gohan, who already appeared in another game based on the series, Dragon Ball Heroes, Super Saiyan 4 Broly, the Time Machine and others.

The new Dragon Ball Z Extreme Butoden is now available for download for the Japanese version of the game but it has yet to be available for the North American and European ones. We will let you know when it becomes available in the West as soon as possible so stay tuned for all the latest news.

Dragon Ball Z Extreme Butoden Is Only The Latest Entry Of A Long Running Series

Dragon Ball Z Extreme Butoden may be the first Dragon Ball fighting game developed by 2D fighting game masters Arc System Works but it’s not the first entry of a new series. The first entry of the Dragon Ball Z Butoden series, Dragon Ball Z Super Butoden, has been released in Japan back in 1993, with the second and third entries releasing shortly after. Dragon Ball Z Super Butoden 2 has also been made available recently on Nintendo 3DS as an exclusive Dragon Ball Z Extreme Butoden pre-order bonus.

Dragon Ball Z Extreme Butoden is now available for Nintendo 3DS in all regions.
