The more characters you rescue, the more you can choose to join your fire team. The gameвЂ™s three-man fighting system, which has you swap out between three characters in battle, encourages you to go and rescue different heroes in the Dragon Ball universe in the gameвЂ™s first campaign, the Super Warrior Arc. After a few scenes setting up the adventure, players are thrown onto a world map where they take turns moving to different locations and toward the Boss, Rescue, and Tutorial icons.

I was surprised to learn that this wouldnвЂ™t be a simple re-treading of Dragon Ball history and would instead carve its own path through the telling of an original tale. What is a big issue is how many times I thought, вЂњвЂ¦ thatвЂ™s not a big issue.вЂќ The second such case materialized when I began to play the gameвЂ™s story mode. The same four structures dot the minuscule map as opposed to seeing Capsule Corp buildings looming large in the background and being able to fly to them in Xenoverse. While Xenoverse felt like a world unto itself as you chased your friends across a decently sized hub world, the same feature has become totally unnecessary in FighterZ as the franchiseвЂ™s license doesnвЂ™t feel like it was used to its potential here.

You can see fellow players roaming around with their avatars in chibi-form, as my incredibly cute Android 17 is a testament to, but there isnвЂ™t as much freedom and interactivity this time around. The game throws players into a hub world that isnвЂ™t as interactive or as engaging as those found in the Xenoverse titles. When I said that FighterZ is a lot more straightforward than Xenoverse, I didnвЂ™t just mean in its fighting style.
