LAS VEGAS – 11 April 2012 – NAMCO BANDAI Games Europe today announced that Dragon Ball Z For Kinect™ will be coming to the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft this October. All of the classic action and intensity of the Dragon Ball Z universe will be felt with an unprecedented sense of immersion when players learn to deliver over 100 moves, including the legendary Kamehameha with their own fists as they charge their way to victory in this ultimate evolution of the classic franchise.

Developed by Spike Chunsoft Co. Ltd, players will be entering the Dragon Ball Z universe in an
entirely new way. Featuring iconic characters, famous attacks, and epic battles authentically created
from the original manga series, Dragon Ball Z For Kinect™ lets players unleash their inner Super
Saiyan with no controller in the way! Fans will also be treated to new anime footage debuting in US
and Europe for the first time, along with over 50 playable characters and an entirely new character.
Leveraging the Kinect sensor, Dragon Ball Z For Kinect™ will also support QR code functionality,
allowing fans to hold up special QR codes to unlock characters and power-ups in the game.
