The free-to-play MOBA game Dragon Ball Gekishin Squadra celebrates its second anniversary in September, and to mark this occasion, Bandai Namco has provided a development update.
The big news is the game will be getting a major update, "or rather overhaul" that makes significant gameplay changes, steering it in a new direction. The reason behind the changes are due to the "high barrier to competitive play" and wanting to make the game more accessible to wider audiences for "years to come".
Here's the rundown about this from the developer letter:
Since its conception, GEKISHIN SQUADRA's goal was to be an experience where players could enjoy Dragon Ball team battles anytime, anywhere, and with anyone.
However, over time, we found that the game's strategic depth and knowledge-based mechanics often created a large cap between the top performing players and everyone else in terms of game literacy.
As a result, new players often encountered lopsided matches and a high barrier to competitive play, leading to a gameplay experience that did not fully meet their expectations.
With feedback from the community, the entire development team carefully and extensively discussed the future of the game and established the following update direction so that GEKISHIN SQUADRA can continue to entertain a wide audience for years to come.
The changes to be made will be updates to the camera perspective, gameplay rules, role system, expanded customisation, visual updates, and a simplification and expansion of game systems. Here's what's on the way and how you can expect the title to transform in the coming months:
