Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 3 (ドラゴンボールZ Sparking! METEOR, Doragon Bōru Zetto Supākingu! Meteo) is a fighting game set to be released on the PlayStation 2 and Wii.[3] It is the sequel to Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 2.

Gameplay

Atari, the game's third-party publisher outside of Japan, says that Budokai Tenkaichi 3 will feature an estimated number of 150 characters and roughly 20 battle arenas to fight in.[4]

New features

Several new features absent from Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 2 have been added to Budokai Tenkaichi 3. These include:

  • Blast Combo[5] - Players can now kick their opponent into the air and attack them again by quickly teleporting behind them. For example, if the player selects Goku, they can kick their opponent into the air, use Instant Transmission to quickly warp behind them while still being sent upwards, and use his Kamehameha to deal more damage to the opponent.
  • Sonic Sway[5] - This technique simply allows the player to evade the opponents attacks. Since it takes longer for the attacker to get back into their fighting stance than it does the player dodging the attacks, the attacker is left with an open defense. The one evading can then quickly counter-attack their opponent. However, this feature only applies to physical attacks aimed for the upper part of the body; if the opponent aims for the player's legs, for example, they cannot evade the attacks.
  • The addition of a new day and night system creates a better connection to the original manga by allowing certain transformations to occur under specific conditions. At night, players can harness the power of the moon to transform into certain characters, such as turning a Saiyan into a Great Ape.[4]

Playable characters

According to the scans and videos released, the roster of playable characters will include returning characters such as Goku and Vegeta and will introduce new characters such as King Vegeta. Atari has also announced the appearance of 20 new playable characters.[4]

A list of known playable characters as of now are listed below.
