10 Video Game Sequels You Didn't Know Were Coming In 2020

Quintessentially, and with massive apologies to both Big Anime Nerds and my 16 year old self, Dragon Ball is a thing that works 1,000,000x better as a video game than it does a TV series. I don’t make the rules, but having sat through 4 entire summer afternoons watching people do nothing but raise their power levels and bark exposition at each other, I’ve earned the right to invoke them.

Thus it’s come as a surprise to precisely nobody that the franchise has pumped out some of the best fighting games of the last few years. Xenoverse 2 and Fighter Z being worth both your time and your Zeni. However, when the next instalment, Kakarot, was revealed as being closer to an RPG, eyebrows were understandably raised.

They really shouldn’t have been though, as the story elements of the series were always what made the fighting itself so compelling. The world was always expansive and richly imagined, and the non-fighting cast of characters are long overdue this sort of introduction in the games.

Gamescom 2019 provided the world with substantial looks at the gameplay itself and, while nobody’s writing any Breath-Of-The-Wild-With-Big Explosions hot takes just yet, it looks like being the long-awaited open world modern DBZ game fans have been after for an age.
