Closed beta test for Dragon Ball: The Breakers happening this December

Bandai Namco announced that their 7v1 asymmetrical game called Dragon Ball: the Breakers will have a closed beta test weekend and that registrations are now open to those interested to give a game a spin. The beta will be open for a limited time through four sessions. 

Those interested in trying out Dragon Ball: the Breakers can register for the closed beta test right now through Bandai’s official website. Registration for the beta will only be available until November 30.The test is only available on the Steam platform. 

Here’s the schedule for all four sessions: 

  • December 3 from 6:00 pm PT / 9:00 pm ET to 10:00 pm PT / 1:00 am ET

  • December 4 from 4:00 am PT / 7:00 am ET to 8:00 am PT / 11:00 am ET

  • December 4 from 10:00 am PT / 1:00 pm ET to 2:00 pm PT / 5:00 pm ET

  • December 4 from 6:00 pm PT / 9:00 pm ET to 10:00 pm PT / 1:00 am ET

During the closed beta, Cell will be the only playable Raider.

For those unfamiliar, Dragon Ball: the Breakers is taking a completely different approach with the Dragon Ball franchise as this game is a 7v1 asymmetrical game where seven players play as normal human beings trying to survive the attack of a Raider controlled by another player. These Raiders are usually the god-like villains known in the Dragon Ball world complete with their immense strength where only Goku and friends can match. 

Sadly, Goku and the rest are not around but there are a few tricks you can do as a bunch of nobodies as your goal is to simply escape the battlefield with the use of a Super Time Machine. On the other hand, the player playing as the Raider simply has to take down all seven survivors. 

Dragon Ball: the Breakers is set to release on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC through Steam sometime in 2022. The game will also be available for the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S through backwards compatibility.
