Dragon Ball: The Breakers is a multiplayer survival game in the "asymmetric survival multiplayer" genre (1 Raider vs. 7 Survivors), always played as a 1 vs. 7 match.
The Raider is tasked with eliminating all the Survivors, while the Survivors must hide across the map, use items and vehicles to survive the Raider’s attacks.
Since this is a Dragon Ball game, the Raiders are represented by classic DB villains like Cell, Frieza, or Majin Buu, who evolve into stronger forms (e.g., Cell: First Form → Second Form → Perfect Form) as the match progresses.
The Survivors must work together to stay alive. Players can choose from several DB characters and original ones made for the game. Their goal is to activate the time machine and escape.
In addition to being available on Nintendo Switch, the game is also released on PS4/PS5, Xbox One/Series, and PC.

The game, as mentioned, features a multiplayer mode.
Its Story Mode is a bit special, as it places you on a board where you carry out battles and relive events from the Dragon World, covering all the sagas from DB classic, DBZ, DBGT, and movies.
It is the first of the three to use proper cel-shading from launch on this console.
It features 42 playable characters, some of them are: Goku and Vegeta SSJ4, Cooler, Broly, Omega Shenron, Saibaman, Mr. Satan, etc.
