This year celebrates the 40th anniversary of the Dragon Ball franchise, highlighting its evolution through various series including Dragon Ball Z, GT, and Super. A new story arc titled Dragon Ball Super: The Galactic Patrol has been announced, featuring Goku and Vegeta teaming up with the Galactic Patrol to combat the villain known as “Planet-Eater” Moro. This announcement was made during the Dragon Ball Genkidamatsuri event in Japan.
In addition to the new arc, fans can anticipate an enhanced remake of the film Battle of the Gods, titled Dragon Ball Super: Beerus, which aims to align more closely with creator Akira Toriyama’s original vision. This remake is set to release in the fall.
Moreover, a teaser for a new video game from Bandai Namco, codenamed Age 1000, has been unveiled. The game features a character with a design by Toriyama and hints at new original characters, set to debut in 2027. Further details will be shared during April’s Dragon Ball Games Battle Hour.
