During this weekends’ Bandai Namco Dragon Ball Battle Hour event, several gaming announcements took place. During the event, Bandai Namco revealed that it was working on a new DLC for Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot. This new DLC called Trunks: The Warrior of Hope will retell the classic DBZ movie, The History of Trunks.
Back in 1993, the Dragon Ball Z movie, History of Trunks, was released. This movie served to a “What If” scenario if Goku (Kakarot) had died during the Dragon Ball Z Android Saga due to a mysterious illness. It’s here that we find a young Trunks trying to survive in a world where nearly all of the most powerful warriors had been killed off my Android 17 and 18. I won’t spoil it all for you if you haven’t watched it – but if you’re a fan of Dragon Ball Z, it’s worth a watch.
There’s currently no release date for Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot: Trunks The Warrior of Hope. However, Bandai Namco and CyberConnect2 have announced we should see it bring released this Summer 2021. It will be added to the current Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot Season Pass or you can pick it up individually when it gets released.
It’s nice to see that new content is still being released, and it doesn’t hurt that I enjoyed History of Trunks. I’ve watched that movie more than my fair share of times; it’s a classic for Dragon Ball Z fans. Here’s to hoping the game does the movie proud.
