When
Dragon ball Z: Kakarot was initially announced, Bandai Namco didn't quite reveal exactly which sagas the game would be covering; by the trailer alone, in fact, many assumed that this new open-world title set in the Dragon Ball universe would only be covering the Saiyan and Frieza sagas.
As time went on, we found out that
Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot was actually adapting every single one of the sagas from the series; from the Saiyan saga all the way up until the Majin Buu saga. The news was very well-received by fans of the series who thought this was probably the first game in a series of new titles.
In a recent interview with the
PlayStation Blog,
Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot Lead Producer Ryosuke Hara and community specialist Sam WIlkinson have revealed some very interesting details about the game; including the reason why they wanted to include every saga.
According to Hara, their "
initial goal of this project was not only to tell the story of Dragon Ball Z, but to allow the players to experience the journey that Goku and the Z-Warriors shared, becoming stronger and building up their bonds. We felt that this had to be delivered in one package."
"
Dragon Ball Z is loved all over the world, so of course everyone has their personal favorite scene. This made it difficult to set a specific guideline when deciding which moments to include," adds Hara while also revealing that they "
knew the only thing we could do was continue discussing the best way to please as many Dragon Ball fans as possible."
