The official Dragon Ball video games X account has confirmed a new title will be unveiled in January, with the reveal set to take place during the Dragon Ball Genkidamatsuri event in Japan. The in-person Genkidamatsuri is scheduled for 25th January, 2026 at Makuhari Messe, and the new game will be shown as part of a stage presentation expected to begin at 11 AM local time, according to an official post on X.

The reveal, part of the Genkidamatsuri schedule, cautions that it might not be a PS5 exclusive; it could be a cross-platform project or even a mobile release. For context, it’s been a year since Dragon Ball Sparking! Zero landed, so Bandai Namco may well be preparing something new across consoles and other platforms.
An earlier report covering the same tip also ran on an earlier report, though details about genre, platforms, and developer are not yet public. Fans should expect official footage and basic information on 25 January 2026, but not a release date or platform list until the stage presentation. If you care about new Dragon Ball fighters or a larger open-world project, now is a good time to temper expectations and enjoy the hype.
