Dragon Ball Z: Extreme Butoden, the fighting game developed by Arc System Works released last month in Japan on Nintendo 3DS, has yet to receive any DLC pack but it looks like some extra content is still going to be made available for the game in some way.

Bandai Namco has confirmed earlier today that a new Dragon Ball Z: Extreme Butoden Z-Assist character, Yakon, will be available for the game through a unique Japanese promotion from today until August 31st. In order to unlock the character, players will have to scan with their console a bar-code found on specific promotional material found in stores and then input a special command in the game.

As Dragon Ball Z: Extreme Butoden has yet to be released in North America and Europe, we have no idea on how the character will be unlocked in the Western version of the game but we will surely hear more about the matter as we approach its final release date.

Two days ago it’s been confirmed that Dragon Ball Z: Extreme Butoden will include a special bonus for all those who will pre-order the game on Amazon. This bonus has been confirmed for Europe last week but we were still unsure if it was going to be made available for North American players as well.

Before its Japanese launch, Dragon Ball Z: Extreme Butoden has received a playable demo  including playable characters Goku, Kid Gohan, Vegeta, and Majin Buu, and assist characters Tien, Recoome, Korin, Turtle, Super Uub, Mercenary Tao, Hercule, and The Great Saiyaman. Save data from the demo also allows players to unlock Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan Goku in the full game. There are currently no news on the  Western launch of this playable demo but we will surely hear more about the matter in the near future.

Dragon Ball Z: Extreme Butoden is now available in Japan exclusively on Nintendo 3DS. The game will be released on October 16th in Europe, Middle-East and Australia and on October 20th in North America.

Recruited Since Last Month: More Than Eight Million Helldivers 2 Players

The relentless force of Helldivers 2 shows no signs of slowing down, as recent reports indicate that Arrowhead Games Studios, the Swedish developer behind the game, has sold over eight million copies since its release on both PS5 and PC just last month.

According to TD Cowen analyst Doug Creutz (thanks, VGC), who spoke to Bloomberg, it is believed that the game has exceeded expectations in terms of performance. It’s amazing how word-of-mouth buzz and the unconventional guerilla marketing strategy keep driving up recruitment numbers week after week. Arrowhead’s studio motto, “A game for everyone is a game for no one,” reflects their unwavering commitment to their unique internal design philosophy.

It appears that the PC community has recently surpassed the PlayStation fanbase in terms of player numbers and platform preference. However, thanks to crossplay, both groups continue to benefit from the growing popularity of gaming. Although it’s not particularly thrilling to see yet another service game achieve rapid success, the hardcore nature of Helldivers 2 fills us with optimism for Sony’s ongoing live gaming endeavors. We anticipate dedicating ourselves to the defense of Super Earth for many years to come.

What are your thoughts on Creutz’s sales estimate? Does it come as a surprise to you? Does it exceed or fall short of your expectations? Have you noticed any changes in your level of enthusiasm for the Democratic Party? Has it waned or grown stronger? We would greatly appreciate your feedback in the comments section below.

E3 is long gone, but that doesn’t mean we won’t have any exciting video game events this summer. Geoff Keighley, the host, has just revealed that the highly anticipated Summer Game Fest event is making a comeback on Friday, June 7th, at 5 PT/5 p.m. ET/10 p.m. BST. The event will be streamed live from the YouTube Theatre in glamorous Los Angeles.

In a recent tweet, Keighley assured his followers that a large number of fans will be present at the event, both in person and online. He expressed excitement about the upcoming cross-platform showcase, where the future of video games will be unveiled. Presumably, PlayStation and other gaming companies will have their own separate livestreams. However, Sony has a tendency to support Summer Game Fest, so it’s worth keeping an eye out for any announcements from them.

If you’re thinking of going, tickets will be available for purchase starting on Tuesday, May 7th. It’s definitely an event worth noting on your calendar. So, what are your expectations for this year’s Summer Game Fest? Feel free to share your dream announcements in the comments section below.
