Arc System Works Developing New Dragon Ball Z: Butouden Title for Nintendo 3DS

dbz-extremebutoden-scanHere’s some interesting news for Dragon Ball Z fans who miss the older, 2D fighting games from the franchise’s past. The latest issue of V Jump has revealed that a new entry in the Dragon Ball Z: Butouden series is coming to Nintendo 3DS later this year.

Developed by none other than Arc System Works, who previously worked on the Dragon Ball Z Supersonic Warriors series for the Gameboy Advance and Nintendo DS, Dragon Ball Z: Extreme Butouden is the latest installment in a long-running series that originated on the Super Nintendo. The most recent entry, Dragon Ball Kai: Ultimate Butouden, landed on DS in 2011.

The game will feature over 100 different characters from the series in both one-on-one and team-style battles. The latter will feature a new mechanic called the Z Assist that will allow certain characters, such as Bulma and Chi Chi, to provide support for the main cast members.

Dragon Ball Z: Extreme Butouden will launch on the Nintendo 3DS in Japan sometime this summer. No word yet on whether or not it’ll make western shores.
