Check your power meter in Dragon Ball Heroes: Ultimate Mission

Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Podcast Stories | 0 comments

These screenshots are incredibly small.

Dragon Ball Heroes: Ultimate Mission is incorporating a new feature. The arcade-to-3DS title will contain a scouter that allows players to determine their power levels. Look into the 3DS camera, and the game will then take a picture of your face.

There’s more to the scouter than just a power level indicator. By scanning people, users may receive Zeni and items. Great Ape Vegeta may also appear if you scan a high enough level, and you’ll be able to fight him with friends.

When asked about its plans for the year ahead, Level-5 said the company intends for Fantasy Life to be the first game in a larger series.

The news shouldn’t come as a huge surprise. Fantasy Life is already experiencing sell-outs in Japan and has been quite popular.
