Last week, we got confirmation that the upcoming DLC for Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot would be covering some of the material contained in Dragon Ball Super. Now, we have a better idea of what this add-on will look like. Publisher Bandai Namco has posted a blog over on its website that details how users will access this DLC and what they can expect to gain from working through. The obvious bonus? Super Saiyan God Goku.
In a feat that will likely break the main game, players can complete the DLC during any point in the story. Once doing so, they'll unlock the ridiculous Super Saiyan God transformation and be able to plow through the main game with it. Obviously that will make the campaign considerably easy, so proceed with caution there.
As for what else this DLC has, a boss battle with Battle of Gods antagonist Beerus is in the cards. He'll have this own exclusive battle episode that unlocks after training with Whis. He'll probably become the newest hardest boss, though maybe you'll also not be able to finish it. That would fall in line with the film.
As for pricing, Bandai Namco is doing something weird here. When this first pack launches, it will only be available as part of the $20 season pass. Once part two is available, both pieces can be purchased individually if you so choose. There doesn't seem to be any benefit to buying one over the other, so this is a little confusing.
Regardless, players that solely want the Super Saiyan God transformation have their hands tied for now. It isn't the biggest issue, especially since the base Kakarot game is rather lengthy. Covering the entirety of the Z saga, players have a good 30-40 hours ahead of them.
This DLC will probably add another few hours, but it also gives you an insane ability that could be game-breaking. That's neat, but it also feels a bit like cheating. Then again, what else was Bandai Namco going to do? Having Super Saiyan God locked to a single fight would be an incredible waste of all the work put into it.
