The Dragon Ball Super Impact on Video Games

Akira Toriyama’s Dragon Ball series has not only dominated the anime and manga industries but also carved a significant niche in the video game realm. Over the years, more than 100 Dragon Ball games have been developed, spanning various genres and platforms. These games have offered fans the chance to explore different corners of the series during times when there was little new anime or manga content to consume.

While many characters from Dragon Ball have made their way into these games, there are still notable figures from Dragon Ball Super who have yet to debut in any video game. Here, we explore ten such characters who would make intriguing additions to future Dragon Ball games.

Granolah: The Cerealian Warrior

Manga Debut: Dragon Ball Super, Chapter 67

Granolah, the last of the Cerealians, seeks vengeance against the Saiyans for destroying his people and planet. His unique abilities and character development in the manga make him a compelling candidate for future video games. Granolah’s sniper skills and Evolved Right Eye could offer unique gameplay mechanics focused on marksmanship and strategy. His eventual power-up with ki-based weapons like a bow and arrow would add depth to his character’s playstyle.

Gas and the Heeter Force

The Heeter Force, particularly Gas, serves as antagonists in the Granolah the Survivor Saga. Gas transforms into a formidable foe, and his dynamic abilities could translate into a unique gaming experience, potentially offering players the chance to manage multiple forms with varying strengths and weaknesses.

Barry Kahn: From Actor to Monster

Barry Kahn, first introduced as a celebrity actor, becomes central to the plot in Dragon Ball Super when he is possessed by Watagash, an alien parasite. This transformation allows Barry to become a formidable force, making him an appealing option for a video game villain who could combine showmanship with raw power.

Saganbo: Muscle Power Amplified

Saganbo, Moro's right-hand man, exemplifies raw brute strength, rivaling even the strongest of the Z Fighters under Moro's influence. His escalating power levels, resulting from magical boosts, present a gameplay mechanic where players could balance power spikes with the risk of instability.

Merus: The Galactic Angel

Merus’ combination of Galactic Patrol skills and Angel abilities makes him a unique character from the Galactic Patrol Prisoner Saga. He could be presented as both a strategic fighter utilizing gadgets and as an Angel with divine powers, making for diverse gameplay experiences.

Miza, Iwaza, Kikaza: Fusion Warriors

This female trio from Moro’s Bandit Brigade can fuse into a single powerful entity, offering intriguing potential for gameplay mechanics centered around team synergy and fusion strategies.

Dinodroid 1: Mechanical Menace

Created during Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero, this Android dinosaur offers an unconventional character option with unique rampaging abilities, adding a fresh dimension to the roster of typical humanoid fighters.

Monaito: The Wise Namekian

Monaito stands out as a character ripe for exploration beyond his supportive role in the manga. With diverse Namekian magic and healing abilities, Monaito could be imagined as a strategic support character in future games.
