"Dragon Ball Fusions" was released in Japan back in August. The highly-interesting 3DS role-playing game allows players to combine various characters from the "Dragon Ball" universe. The game has received a western release too. The fusion of character attributes is what makes the game good.
The fusion culminates into an individual with the powers of the parent characters. "Dragon Ball Fusions" draws a lot of influence from the latest versions of the "Dragon Ball" series. The character fusions are an important skill within the narrative. Thus, the powers, attributes and abilities of two incomparable entities combine to become one potent form.
According to Forbes, these kinds of fusions are still common in modern series such as "Dragon Ball Super" where Vegeta and Goku fused together to form Vegito. However, even though characters are generally limited in the way they combine, "Dragon Ball Fusions" is different. This is because, when it comes to fusions, the game allows unlimited fusions.
Moreover, the Metamo-Ring allows unlimited combinations. EX-Fusions are unique to this game and these are the new more open fusions. Naturally, "Dragon Ball Fusions" is already a massive hit in Japan mainly because of the ability to combine a large number of characters. This in turn adds a lot of depth to the battles fought by players.
It's a good thing that handheld gamers are also being catered to as games like "Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2" has also been released on console. As GameStop released "Dragon Ball Fusions" on Nov. 18 itself, those who pre-ordered the game from there are already playing it. The game has also received a full release for Nintendo 3DS.
Going by the freedom "Dragon Ball Fusions" allows its players, the game will become big in the west too. Developer Ganbarion, the main force behind the game, has reportedly worked closely with Nintendo to give it a successful release.
