When Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot was first announced, it was unclear if its story would extend beyond the Frieza Saga. Then later when it was revealed that Cell would be in Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot, fans were still unsure if the game would also include the Buu Saga. Despite Bandai Namco not officially confirming or denying the Buu Saga, it turns out that the English voice actor for Goku actually confirmed the Buu Saga for Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot earlier this month.

The English voice actor for Goku, Sean Schemmel, was interviewed by the website ComicBook.com earlier this month. In the interview, Schemmel said, "Kakarot is coming out in early 2020. It's an RPG, you can play the entire Dragon Ball Z saga, all the way through the Buu saga, from beginning to end." This puts a rest to any speculation that Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot may be reserving the Buu Saga for a sequel or DLC, and confirms that the game will let players experience Dragon Ball Z from beginning to end.

Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot being an action-RPG is a bit different than what fans are used to from Dragon Ball Z video games. Most of the time, Dragon Ball Z games are fighting games, and it stands to reason that some fans may enjoy the style of gameplay in Kakarot and will want to see a  sequel or expansions. Perhaps Bandai Namco could release expansions based on the various Dragon Ball Z movies, or maybe the stories in the movies could be reserved for a potential sequel.

Alternatively, future action-RPGs based on the Dragon Ball franchise could be based on some of the other anime series. For example, Bandai Namco could do a prequel about Dragon Ball itself, which would star a young Goku. It could also do an adaptation of Dragon Ball Super, or maybe even the less-loved Dragon Ball GT. There are many possibilities, but of course, it all depends on Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot being a success first.

Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot launches in early 2020 for PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
