Bandai Namco Entertainment announced on August 30 that Dragon Ball: Gekishin Squadra will get a renewal in Season 8 at the end of this year. The free-to-play title, available on PC (Steam), Nintendo Switch, PS5, PS4, iOS, and Android, currently uses a top-down camera that will shift to a third-person view with the player looking over the character's shoulder, along with visual adjustments.
The game rule changes replace the current Gekishin Rule, which the company said was complex and led to differences in understanding among players, with a simpler condition: the team that collects more Dragon Balls within the time limit wins. The map will also change. The Damage, Tank, and Technical role system will be simplified after performance issues made preferred heroes difficult to use, with customization, hero acquisition, and replayable elements also expanded.
Season 7, marking the first anniversary, begins September 9 and adds three new heroes including Super Gogeta, before the renewal lands in Season 8.
