For example, Bandai Namco Entertainment announced tonight without warning the arrival of a new installment of the Dragon Ball Z Budokai Tenkaichi series. A reveal on Twitter via a teaser video where we see old gameplay sequences from previous episodes of Budokai Tenkaichi, when the series was released on PS2. It is also on a cathode ray television screen that this footage is presented, reminding us how much the last episode dates back to Methuselah. But soon the video will make this television disappear from another time to switch to 16/9 and HD pictures, transitioning to a Son Goku modeled with today’s graphics and then turning into a Super Saiajin Blue. Proof that it will not be a remake, but a sequel.
If the official name of the game has not been communicated at this point, the tagline prepares the player for a new “Sparking”, which was thus the official name of the game in Japanese. We remind you that Dragon Ball Z Budokai Tenkaichi in Japan Dragon Ball Z Sparking! was called, while the next two episodes were marked “Neo” and then “Meteor”. Either way, it’s a dream come true and created a veritable tidal wave of joy on social media, with the name Budokai Tenkaichi 4 becoming a trending topic within minutes. It remains to be seen whether this Dragon Ball Z Budokai Tenkaichi 4 will be released this year, or rather in 2024…
