About

It is the fourth installment in the Butouden series. It features 27 playable characters, their sprites being those used in the earlier game "Dragon Ball Z - Ultimate Battle 22" for the Sony PlayStation. Also, the game's introduction is made with scenes recycled from the introduction of Ultimate Battle 22. The game also features two other exclusive modes: Group Battle and Mr. Satan mode. In Group Battle, players gets to create a team of five characters and fight against either another player or an AI-controlled character. In Mr. Satan mode, Mr. Satan is trying to raise enough money to pay off his debt to Android 18, and the player places bets on matches and cheats by using several items, such as banana peels, guns, and dynamite.
