How it plays

How does Dragon Ball Z: The Legacy of Goku II play?

The game uses an overhead perspective. Players explore towns, wilderness areas, laboratories, and battle zones while following the story and completing optional objectives.

Combat is real-time. Characters move around enemies, use basic attacks and special techniques, gather items, and exploit each hero’s strengths. Experience and upgrades improve combat performance, while story events unlock new areas, characters, and abilities.

The main adventure is structured around story chapters, side quests, collectibles, and boss encounters. Several characters can be used, with the active hero changing as the story progresses.

Plan your run

What is the best way to play Dragon Ball Z: The Legacy of Goku II?

Explore each area thoroughly before leaving. Talk to non-player characters, inspect objects, and complete side quests because useful items and experience are often found away from the main path.

Use the character best suited to the encounter. Avoid trading damage with strong enemies, keep moving during combat, and save healing items for difficult fights. Upgrade abilities regularly and return to earlier areas when new powers open previously inaccessible routes.
