New Dragon Ball Video Game Age 1000 Revealed for 2027 Release

A new Dragon Ball video game, titled Dragon Ball: Age 1000, was recently announced at the Dragon Ball Genkidama Matsuri and is scheduled to release in 2027. Details are currently scarce, but the title suggests the game will take place far into the future of the Dragon Ball universe. For dedicated fans, it’s worth noting that the series uses an ‘Age’ system to track time – the original Dragon Ball starts in Age 749, and Dragon Ball Z’s peaceful era concludes in Age 784.

The trailer for Dragon Ball: Age 1000 suggests the new silver-haired hero is related to Goku. This is hinted at by the hero’s ability to transform into a Super Saiyan, and a quick glimpse of Goku’s figure appearing over the character. While we haven’t seen any gameplay or learned story details yet, more information will be shared at Dragon Ball Games Battle Hour 2026 later this year.

Dragon Ball: Age 1000 is an Original Story by Akira Toriyama Set 216 Years After The End of Z

Akira Toriyama, the creator of Dragon Ball, contributed to the new game, Dragon Ball Genkidama Matsuri, specifically designing the main character and potentially working on the story. This level of story involvement from Toriyama is reminiscent of his work on Dragon Ball Online, and it’s notable because the new game’s setting, Age 1000, is an important period within the Dragon Ball Online timeline. This connection suggests a deliberate link between the two projects.

In Dragon Ball Online, Future Trunks journeys to the Year 1000 to find new recruits for the Time Patrol. Akira Toriyama originally planned a continuation of the Dragon Ball Z story that would lead into Dragon Ball Online, and Age 1000 might be his way of bringing back story elements that were later changed with Dragon Ball Super.

More Information on Age 1000 Will Be Revealed in April

Dragon Ball fans will have to wait for more news about Dragon Ball: Age 1000. Details will be revealed at the Dragon Ball Games Battle Hour 2026, taking place in Los Angeles, California on April 18th and 19th. This event, which has been running for six years, regularly shares the latest news about Dragon Ball video games.

The upcoming title, Age 1000, could be a fresh start for ideas from Akira Toriyama’s DBO notes, a revamped version of Dragon Ball Online, or even the third Dragon Ball Xenoverse game. We’ll have to wait and see what it is – unfortunately, we don’t have a way to fast-forward to April to find out!
