The game features up to 135 playable characters (16 more than on PS2). Some Wii-exclusive characters are: Appule, Cyborg Tao, Demon King Piccolo, and Frieza Soldier.
The game itself is the same as the PS2 version, but with the difference that you can use the Wii controllers to perform special moves and control your character. It is also compatible with the traditional controller (Wii or GameCube controller).

Dragon Ball: The Breakers is a survival multiplayer game, whose genre is called "Asymmetrical Survival Multiplayer (1 Raider vs. 7 Survivors)", in this case it will always be 1 vs 7.
The Raider or Hunter aims to eliminate all Survivors or Prey, while the latter must hide around the map, use items and vehicles to survive the hunter or raider.
In this case, being a Dragon Ball game, the hunters are represented by Dragon Ball villains like Cell, Frieza, or Majin Buu, who evolve and change form (e.g., Cell 1st form becomes Cell 2nd form and then reaches his final or perfect form) as the match progresses.
The survivors or prey must play as a team to survive. They can choose from some DB characters and original ones from the game. Their goal is to activate "the time machine" and escape, as many as can make it.
The game, besides PC, is also available on: PS4/PS5, Xbox One/Series, and Nintendo Switch.
Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot arrives as the first major 3D RPG with open-world elements and combat worthy of any fighting game.

This is a single-player game designed in the style of Final Fantasy, with item gathering, crafting, ability upgrades, and a semi-open world to explore the Dragon World, complete side quests, and enjoy mini-games like fishing, baseball, and races.
Combat is similar to that of Xenoverse, but with the cinematic and fast-paced style typical of CyberConnect2 (known for their Naruto games). Its art style was unmatched at the time of release.
