YouTube’s member ’emudshit’ has been working for a year on a Dragonball game in Unreal Engine 4. While still in a WIP state, this project looks really, really, really cool. However, it may never see the light of day as we’re almost certain that Bandai Namco will send him a C&D letter.

And that’s a shame because this project seems to have a lot of potential. But then again, who would purchase a DBZ game when such an alternative is available for free, right?

Still, it’s pretty amazing what an individual has managed to achieve, therefore we decided to share the video. Because, like it or not, it does look cool.

For what is worth, here are the key features of the latest build for Dragonball Unreal (this build is not available to the public).
