Dragon Ball: The Breakers Open Beta Gets Release Date

Neat, I've always wanted to be vaporized by a monster.

It’s still pretty wild that some mad developers looked at the villains of the Dragon Ball series and said to themselves, “let’s use these guys in an asymmetrical survival multiplayer game.” It’s definitely not the first thing I’d have thought of, but darn if I’m not intrigued by the concept. If you are as well, you’ll be interested to know that Dragon Ball: The Breakers’ open beta has gotten a release date.
