Summary

DRAGON BALL: THE BREAKERS has a TrueGG Rating of 49.6%, based on all-time reviews from players with 10+ hours (4,197 reviews) because recent reviews are few. Steam's overall rating is 49.4%.

Reviews written under 2 hours make up 10% of the total, and only 28% of them are positive. Some players bounce off early, but those who get past the opening rate it higher. Steam accepts refund requests within 2 hours of play and 14 days of purchase.

In the last 180 days, approval peaks at 63% around 10–20h and falls to 34% at 200h+: in the current version, long-time players are harsher.

Negative reviews most often mention player base and matchmaking (more than at launch), servers, and boredom. Positive reviews praise how fun it feels.

Among Japanese-language reviews, the TrueGG Rating is 33.7%, 15.9 points below all languages.

Re-weighting reviews by trust signals (playtime, length, how the game was obtained) barely changes the rating (49.5% adjusted), so Steam's number is not noticeably distorted by key giveaways or throwaway reviews.

All figures come from Steam's public review counts, and topics are counted with our published dictionary (no AI). Data as of 2026-10-17.

Why it is rated this way

What drives the rating

Complaints center on live operations and online play (Player base & matchmaking, Servers & connection). These shift over time, so weigh recent reviews more than the all-time figure. It is also a game many people bounce off early (early reviews are much less positive than those of players who stuck with it).
