However, they have to hurry, because with every minute the Invader becomes more and more powerful.

A lone player controlling the Invader can choose between several famous villains from the history of the Dragon Ball brand, such as Freeza, Cell, or Buu. Each of them has unique special abilities. Regardless of who you choose, you become a powerful warrior who can not only easily eliminate people, but also destroy elements of the environment. The game has a wide selection of maps and cosmetic objects that allow you to change the appearance of the character. Additional bonuses and items can be obtained by loading saves from Dragon Ball: Xenoverse. The game offers only a multiplayer mode.

Key features
  • Utilize vehicles, weapons, grappling hooks, and other gimmicks
