Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 4 might feature a character creator

18 November 2007

Posted by:Ferry

Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 4 is already talked about by the game’s creators. They mention always listening to fan comments and admit that was the reason why they added online multiplayer on Wii and many more characters in Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 3 after Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 2 on PS2 and Wii. One of the features still missing is a character creator, but that might change in 2008.

To quote Atari producer Donny Clay: “Unfortunately there are some things that are requested by several different fans that we aren’t able to do just yet. For example, one of things we get asked for quite a bit is a completely custom character system from the ground up. Meaning players want to be able to build their own character with their own moves and their own look. This is definitely something I would love to do as well, we just haven’t had the chance to get this into a game yet. Don’t worry though I won’t forget.”

That should come as no surprise since the upcoming Dragon Ball Online MMO game also features a character creator tool that allows you to make your own Saiyan, Human or Namek.

In recent interviews the Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 3 team mentions working on a next-gen game and being a fan of the Xbox 360, so my guess would be that the next DBZ game is coming to not just Wii and PS2, but also Xbox 360 and PS3. Makes sense for them to want to make the graphics look even better and have more online features. Throw in the character creator on top of even more than the 161 characters in the last game and you’ve got yourself Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 4.

As the official DBZ Budokai Tenkaichi blog says: “When we’re coming up with a new DBZ game, we first think about what the fans on the forums and message boards have been asking about.” So what do you want in Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 4?

PS: There’s also a Dragon Ball Z: Budokai “Burst Limit” game in development for PS3 and Xbox 360.

Update May 19th, 2009: After 1.5 years of waiting, the first magazine announcement of Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 4 has been revealed in Japan, where the next Tenkaichi game for Xbox 360 and PS3 is titled Dragon Ball Z: Raging Blast!

for a extended scene once completed the game. goku as an old man, kid buu comes back by threatning to tourture people if he can not go earth to take revenge on goku.
goku + vegeta go into their ape form and fuse to make gogeta ape ss3 and kill buu with a dominating spirt bomb blast X10000
but kills both of them in the process. In spirit world vegeta offers to give his spirit to goku and live for the rest of his days.

they should put the characters like those saiyans that could have achied a higher level but never did. For example, Vegeta SSJ3, Future Trunks SSJ2 and GT Trunks SSJ2 (I’m guessing since Gohan achieved SSJ2 being a half saiyan breed, Trunks can achieve it also), GT Goten SSJ2, Gotenks SSJ, 2, 3 (in adult form), Vegetto SSJ2, 3 and 4
Gogeta SSJ2 and 3
OPS

Those are some few things I want in tenkaichi 4:
Arenas:

King Kai’s Planet
Tree of Might
Cell Game Without Ring(when cell destoyed ring)
Space(can go in other planets)
Snake way
Uub’s village
