Portable One-on-One Combat
Dragon Ball Z: Ultimate Combat 22 is an action fighting game for the PSP that puts the anime series' recognizable fighters into head-to-head matches. You choose a character such as Goku, Vegeta, Frieza, or Majin Buu, then try to empty the opponent's health bar before yours runs out. The move set mixes physical strikes with energy-based attacks, and each fighter has unique moves, so switching characters changes how a match plays out.
Match Flow and Combo Timing
Fights are not just about throwing attacks. You can chain hits into combos for stronger sequences, but you also have to avoid incoming strikes, which makes defense as important as offense. The controls use the PSP's buttons for punches, kicks, energy waves, and special attacks. That layout is simple enough for newcomers to start quickly, while the combo and defensive systems give experienced players room to refine timing.
Modes for Solo and Local Play
Several modes cover different ways to play. 1P Vs Computer works for solo practice, while 1P Vs 2P supports local head-to-head competition. Championship tournaments let you test your skills against a series of opponents. Build Up mode is the standout: you train a fighter to raise health and damage, which can matter in tougher matches. Stages include the World Tournament Arena, Namek, and the Rocky Mountains, giving each fight a familiar backdrop.
Approaching the Roster and Progression
The roster draws from the Dragon Ball Z universe, and each character brings distinct abilities rather than cosmetic differences. Practicing with multiple fighters helps you learn their moves and combos, while Build Up mode rewards investment in a favorite character. Because the game is designed for PSP, it fits short play sessions, but the combo system and tournament structure still support longer practice. The content stays family-friendly, focusing on strategic combat rather than graphic material.
