Gameplay

Dragon Ball Z: The Legend utilizes a unique system of play that is different from most other fighters. The graphics feature 2D sprites in a three dimensional world. Although each battle begins on the ground, the majority of the action is featured skyward. The characters fly around each and utilize rapid punches and kicks, and Ki Blasts, either singularly or rapidly by holding the assigned button for a short period of time. The characters have a limited amount of ki that can be charged over time. If the player uses all of their available ki, their character will stop fighting out of exhaustion, leaving them wide open for an attack. The life meter is a scale made up of energy from both sides that shifts depending on damage taken, and after one side is depleted, the character performs a special "Meteor Attack", which takes place in a cut scene and finishes off the opponent. Each match is made up of two teams that can include one fighter or multiple fighters that can be switched out at various times.

Story Mode[]

This is the first game to have all the main Dragon Ball Z sagas. There are eight "episodes" in the story mode: the Saiyan Saga, the Captain Ginyu Saga, the Frieza Saga, the Androids Saga, the Cell Games Saga, the Majin Buu Saga, the Fusion Saga, and the Kid Buu Saga.

Trivia[]

  • The color of Goku's base aura is different from all the other character's auras, as it is red, a possible nod to Kaio-ken.
  • Aside from his regular costume, Future Trunks also wears his Battle Armor in Stage 5 of the Story mode and some fights in the SP Battle mode, but cannot be selected by the player in Versus mode. Vegeta in his Buu Saga outfit is also exclusive to Stage 6 of the Story mode, but apart from having Cell Saga Vegeta's portrait, he is identical to Majin Vegeta.
  • The game seems to more closely follow the manga rather than the anime, particularly the pictures in the story mode (as well as the special ending sequence), are similar to the manga, and the game scores the player depending on how closely was the story retold.
  • During Stage 4 of the Story Mode, they have a few mistakes in both Future Trunks and Android 18's appearances. Future Trunk's hair is purple instead of lavender resembling his present counterpart in Dragon Ball GT as well as his jacket is blue instead of indigo before he removes it. The color of Future Trunks' jacket is later adapted to his anime appearance in Dragon Ball Super and Android 18's black stripes from her black shirt with white long sleeves within her main outfit went missing as the black stripes were visibly seen during the intro of Stage 4 as well as her blue denim vest became darker also from the same intro. However in her in-game, she retains the original colors of her main outfit only her shirt became dark blue to match up her tights and her brown boots are lighter.
  • The outcome of several fights will change depending of the player's choices, for example, if the player lets Frieza kill Krillin, Goku will turn into a Super Saiyan; if Goku is not chosen against the Androids, 16 will not fight either; Majin Buu will help Goku and Vegeta against Kid Buu if both of them get hit with a special attack twice, and Goku will return to his base form in order to finish Kid Buu with the Spirit Bomb.
  • Gogeta and Majin Ozotto were intended to appear in the game, but could not be added due to schedule constraints. An original character designed by Akira Toriyama was also planned.[1]
