All I want is a LoG like exploration, with various Z Movie secret bosses hidden on the map, depending on where you go.
I can imagine how amazing the Lord Slug or Cooler fights would be with CyberConnect2's cinematics.

You know, I hate the Metal Cooler Movie, but it would make a good game level

There better be news in this month's V-Jump. Heroes is already out and I'm enjoying it greatly, so now they can move onto advertising the next game.

I want to know the gameplay style, whether it goes past Freeza arc and hopefully more playable characters.

V Jump has began to leak, and every Dragon Ball title has some info, apart from Project Z.
I've a feeling they will keep us waiting until the 26th, as that's officially DBZ's 30th Anniversary.

Either that or we really will have to wait until E3 for a (hopefully) huge info dump.
I called it that Gogeta, Bardock, and something Broly related would be in the movie before it was even announced that it was a Broly movie. 8)

Honestly it just felt like a super-early announcement, perhaps moved up by the likelihood of it leaking. Considering how little they had to show at the start, that wouldn't surprise me.

There's still a lot to focus on right now with FighterZ and XV2 DLC, in addition to the barely-a-week-old-ish World Mission, so it makes tons of sense to not "flood the market" with additional game details for something that's not even really on the horizon.

E3 is the event that gets the most attention from gamers so it makes sense if they want as many people as possible to know about it.

E3 it is I guess.

Maybe we'll get something next VJUMP?

But it's coming out this year. Unless it's been pushed back?

Probably nothing, but Bandai Namco US have said there may be a surprise or 2 at the Super Saiyan showdown on Tuesday.

Maybe we'll get another trailer?. It's possible it could be dubbed if so, and would make sense as to why there's been nothing in V-Jump.
OkraTron have definitely been busy planning recording, as Stephen Hoff has mentioned he's directing it via his Twitter account.

Of course, it could be nothing, so let's just see.

Thanks.

Wait, how do I know it's for Project Z and not another game?

I guess you don't. I'm assuming that it's Project Z.

In a bizarre change, yesterday Bandai Namco Entertainment Japan re-uploaded the teaser trailer using a unique BGM, replacing CHA-LA-HEAD-CHA-LA.
Perhaps a total coincidence that it was a day before the 30th anniversary, or perhaps it was a creative decision?, or have they lost the rights/expired?.
Of course, the BGM is very expensive, and they are charged each time they use it, so it is possible this is cost cutting.

Needless to say, they announced this game too soon.
Months later and we still don't know how much of the main story will cover, or how the gameplay works.
A world without Dragon Ball is just boring.

It will most likely be similar to their Naruto games where it's a mix between open world and VS battles. In terms of the story, I think at most it will cover Raditz to Kid Buu, maybe even just to Cell like Budokai and Burst limit.

Do you think there will be news in this months' V-Jump? Since SDBH World MIssion is now out and all, they'll have free space to promote this.

I think we might get some teaser for E3 as that's where I believe it'll get its main introduction.
