This is the modern, gold-standard Dragon Ball fighting game for PC. Developed by Arc System Works, it is a 2.5D fighter that is faster and more technically demanding than Burst Limit , but its anime-quality visuals and massive roster make it the definitive competitive DBZ experience on the platform.

The reasons for this are largely rooted in licensing. Burst Limit was published in North America by Atari during a transitional period for the Dragon Ball game license. Shortly after its release, Namco Bandai consolidated the rights for all future Dragon Ball Z games, effectively ending Atari's involvement and, with it, any plans for a direct sequel to this specific title. What fans refer to as "Burst Limit 2" in searches and forums are often mix-ups with games like Dragon Ball: Raging Blast 2 or pure fan speculation on sites like the Dragon Ball Fanon Wiki .
