A dream Naruto RPG would make the entire world of the manga fully explorable, though this seems unlikely given the budget of a title like this would be off the charts, especially since countries like the Land of Snow have only been seen in non-canon anime films. One of the key pillars of the series are the different countries and cultures that make up the world of the manga and anime. One thing that Naruto has in spades over Dragon Ball is an intense emphasis on its world-building. Nonetheless, Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot's open world provided something fans had never seen before in a Dragon Ball Z game, a full realization of the world of the manga and the anime, featuring instantly recognizable locations such as the Kame House and Central City. One of the most impressive elements of Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot was its approach to recreating the world of Akira Toriyama's manga into an open-world, albeit one that was split apart rather than a seamlessly explorable map. Given the scope of its world and length of its story, here's why Naruto is a prime candidate for the Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot treatment.
These adapted pivotal parts of the story of Masashi Kishimoto's beloved manga, while featuring a broad roster of characters from the series. Given that the game's DLC has already touched upon some of the story of Dragon Ball Super, it might be time for CyberConnect2 to stretch its legs outside of the Dragon Ball franchise and return to the Naruto franchise.įor the uninitiated, CyberConnect2 developed the Naruto: Ultimate Ninja Storm games, a series of 3D fighting games much like its upcoming Demon Slayer project. While the developer has already announced its next project, a 3D fighting game title based on Koyoharu Gotouge's Demon Slayer manga, it's possible that the team will want to return to the JRPG style of Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot following its release. RELATED: The Biggest Story Arcs That Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot Still Hasn't Touched CyberConnect2 proved it's possible to adapt the story of such a long manga into an open-world RPG, while still offering an experience that was distinctly Dragon Ball. That said, it's hard not to imagine some of Shonen Jump's other smash-hit manga series in this style of sprawling action-adventure.
It's the kind of treatment very few anime and manga franchises get, yet few are more deserving of it than Dragon Ball, which has proven itself to be worthy of its legacy as one of the biggest media franchises in the world. Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot is one of the most ambitious games based on an anime ever developed, adapting the full Dragon Ball Z storyline of Akira Toriyama's original manga into an open-world RPG, developed by CyberConnect2.
