Bandai Namco has announced Season 8 of Dragon Ball: The Breakers , bringing Golden Frieza as a new invader and the Ultra Instinct Transfer for the survivors. The update is now available for all compatible platforms.

With an asymmetrical gameplay style, The Breakers puts seven players in the role of survivors trying to escape an invader, who now features a powerful new form of Frieza. Additionally, the Ultra Instinct Transfer adds new defensive strategies to the game.

Golden Frieza increases the challenges for players in Dragon Ball: The Breakers

The most impactful new feature of the DRAGON BALL: THE BREAKERS update is the inclusion of Golden Frieza, who arrives as an alternate form of the villain. Unlike his other transformations, this version significantly increases his speed and hunting ability, but reduces his health, making combat more strategic.

In addition to improved mobility, skills, and Ki Blasts have been revamped, allowing for new approaches in the fight against the survivors. The mechanics encourage a more aggressive playstyle, exploiting the speed advantage without completely compromising the character's stamina. Furthermore, the villain joins other major antagonists from the franchise, solidifying The Breakers as an intense battleground within the Dragon Ball universe.

Transfer Superior Instinct empowers survivors

To balance the threats of the invader, Season 8 of DRAGON BALL: THE BREAKERS also introduces the Ultra Instinct Transfer. This new feature allows players to activate a targeted attack on a specific enemy or dash towards the camera if there is no nearby target.

Furthermore, Dragon Transformation temporarily activates special attacks, expanding the survivors' strategies during combat. This new tool broadens the possibilities for survival, making the game even more dynamic and challenging.

With these improvements, players have more strategic options to face the growing threat of invaders.
