Description

Recent developments in the world of Dragon Ball gaming have pointed toward an exciting new addition for fans playing on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.

Data uncovered by community dataminer Josou_Kit suggests that Bandai Namco is preparing Dragon Ball Daima-themed downloadable content (DLC) for its action-RPG hit, Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot. The discovery was made public via social media posts from Josou_Kit, who reported finding direct references to “Daima” embedded within the latest game code.

Among the files, mentions of an element that allegedly translates to 'Skyseed Platform' were also observed.

While the specific meaning of this term remains undetermined, its inclusion is a strong indicator that new content inspired by the upcoming anime is underway. Dragon Ball Daima is the newest installment in the legendary anime franchise.

While details about the show are still limited, it holds additional significance as one of the final projects directly overseen by the late Akira Toriyama.

The celebrated Dragon Ball creator, who passed away in early 2024, was intimately involved in Daima’s production.

The anime is scheduled to debut in the fall, promising to continue the legacy for both existing fans and new viewers alike. Bandai Namco’s long-term support for its Dragon Ball video games is well documented.

Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot, first released in January 2020, has consistently received updates and expansions across all major gaming platforms, including the Nintendo Switch.

This ongoing content model has been a hallmark of Bandai Namco’s strategy, with titles like Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2—originally launched in 2016—still receiving new DLC even years after their initial release. Further highlighting its continued popularity, Bandai Namco recently confirmed that Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot has surpassed eight million units sold worldwide.

This milestone solidifies the game’s status as a staple for both core Dragon Ball fans and newcomers.

The potential addition of Dragon Ball Daima DLC would further enhance its appeal, particularly as anticipation grows in the lead-up to the anime’s premiere. As of now, Bandai Namco has not officially announced any Dragon Ball Daima DLC content for Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot.

The development, however, is being closely watched by fans and industry observers.

With the Nintendo Switch and other platforms providing a substantial player base, any such expansion would be a significant moment in the continued evolution of Dragon Ball video games. We will provide further updates as more information or official statements from Bandai Namco become available regarding Dragon Ball Daima support in Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot.
