Bandai Namco has officially announced Dragon Ball: Project Multi, a new four-versus-four MOBA (Multiplayer Online Battle Arena) game set to launch on Steam and mobile devices. With a regional test scheduled to begin in just over a week, Dragon Ball fans have even more to look forward to in 2024.

Dragon Ball Expands Its Gaming Horizon

With the release of Daima, Xenoverse 2’s Future Saga, Kakarot’s final DLC, and Sparking Zero, fans already have plenty to be excited about. Now, with the announcement of Dragon Ball: Project Multi, the iconic franchise is venturing into a new genre—MOBAs.

Following in the footsteps of Pokemon Unite, Dragon Ball’s entry into the MOBA genre is a significant expansion of the franchise’s gaming repertoire. Dragon Ball: Project Multi was unveiled earlier today, with plans to launch on iOS, Android, and Steam. The first regional test will take place from August 20 to September 3, giving fans an early chance to experience the game.

The announcement trailer for Dragon Ball: Project Multi offered a glimpse of the gameplay, which bears similarities to popular MOBAs like Pokemon Unite and League of Legends. In typical MOBA fashion, teams of four players will battle across a map, aiming to control points and collect Dragon Balls to secure victory.

True to its roots, Project Multi incorporates the power-ups and transformations that Dragon Ball is famous for. The trailer showed Goku transforming into a Super Saiyan, a mechanic akin to Pokemon evolution in Unite. The character roster appears to draw heavily from Dragon Ball Super, with designs and characters from that series prominently featured. Notably, the trailer teased characters like Zamasu and Android 18 in her pink Tournament of Power tracksuit, hinting at a diverse selection of fighters.
