To the surprise of some fans, Minecraft has released a new expansion. From now on, you can fight alongside Son-Goku and his friends from Dragon Ball Z.
What kind of DLC is this? The creative team from Cyclone has created a new DLC for Minecraft. After expansions like the Minions and Buzz Lightyear from Toy Story, now a complete expansion for Dragon Ball Z follows.
You can choose from many characters from the anime and engage in battles with them. Playable characters include the hero Son-Goku as well as villains like Freezer and supporting characters like C18, who is an android. Each character is supposed to have their own abilities, and some can even become Super Saiyans.
With the characters, you can either plunge into battle alone or participate in a cooperative tournament. There are even 5v5 battles. Additionally, there are skins and a scouter for your playable character, which theoretically allows you to measure an opponent’s power level.
The trailer shows that there are, in addition to new items from the anime, even blocks that look like the Dragon Balls. The characters also get the typical voxel look (pixels in 3D).
Locations and characters from the anime
What does it have in common with the anime? In addition to the characters, there are also certain locations that you probably recognize from the anime. These include places like God’s Palace or the valley where Vegeta rampaged as an angry warrior in the anime.
What do fans say about it? Under a trailer on YouTube, many fans share their thoughts on the new DLC. Some commenters are excited about the new expansion. However, others criticize that the frame rate never stays at a constant 60 FPS. Even in the trailer, this is noticeable.
There are also some users who write rather funny comments. One viewer comments that Sparking Zero looks good – referring to the latest installment. Another user finds it great that there is finally a worthy opponent for Steve, the player character from Minecraft.
When is it released and how much does it cost? The DLC is now available on the Minecraft Marketplace. It can be purchased for either 1510 in-game coins or 8.99 US dollars. According to the Xbox Store, this corresponds to a price of 7.39 €.
Currently, Minecraft is especially in the spotlight due to a streamer event. In the Craft Attack 13 project, many streamers play the block-building adventure in a special way. One Twitch streamer even turns the title into a completely different game: While Twitch streamers build bases and embark on adventures, Trymacs pretends to play a different game in the Minecraft project.
