If you're a Dragon Ball fan who lives in Japan and also happens to own a Switch, we've got some exciting news to share courtesy of this week's issue of V-Jump.
Dimps Corporation is bringing Super Dragon Ball Heroes: World Mission to Nintendo's hybrid platform (as can be seen in the scan above). It's described as a "super card battle adventure" and will include more than 1,160 cards covering Super Dragon Ball Heroes 1 to 8 and Universe Mission 1 and 2 (previously released on the 3DS). There will also be over 350 Dragon Ball characters from the series ready for battle.
Super Dragon Ball Heroes is based on the arcade version, which is a two-screen design. The Switch iteration is said to include seven-verse-seven card battles with multiplayer included. More information about the game will be revealed at the 8th anniversary Dragon Ball Heroes event. At this point in time, the title has only been confirmed for a Japan release.
Would you like to see this Dragon Ball digital card game localised? Have you played previous entries? Are you glad to see more Dragon Ball games are on the way to the Switch? Tell us in the comments.

This is big!
Dragon Balls-to-the-wall with excitement.
Breaking Snooze. 😴Thanks, yet again for yesterday's news.
5 bucks says it never gets localized.
There are a bunch of these anime specific card games here in Japan. They rarely if ever get localized. Gundam War did, for a short time. And I think the first set of a Fire Emblem game did as well. But that's all I know of.
Looks decent. Not really into card-based video games (plus I doubt it'll ever get localized) but looks like it's a great deal for fans of the franchise.
@Rika_Yoshitake this is bigger than big.
Old news
@TheGhostWhoWalks oh no this is the first time I've heard about it and I'm doing so after you? I'm so angry, next time they should just not write up an article
oooh, please bring it this way, I would love to play that.
@Heavyarms55 Never.
I would download it... if my japanese account wouldn't need a separate purchase for online. Oh well, trial week I guess.
@Heavyarms55 I thought one of the Dragon Ball Heroes games did get localized? Was I wrong?
Y'know.. if this is anything like Legendary Super Warriors on the GameBoy Color, I might actually want to pick this up. I played that game a lot back then.
@Reigestugatensho I might have missed that one. Still only a small fraction of these sorts of anime card game spin offs make it outside of Japan.
@Rika_Yoshitake I don't see how a card game like this is so big. They already have Dokkan Battle on mobile devices, and TES Legends and Hearthstone have way more appeal...
