Dragon Ball Z - The Legacy of Goku II (USA)

To get the most out of your playthrough of Dragon Ball Z - The Legacy of Goku II, follow these key tips and strategies. First, prioritize leveling all of your playable characters evenly, not just your current main. Many story gates and hidden areas require specific characters to access, and an underleveled character can leave you stuck against late-game bosses. Early in your game, collect all Dragon Balls as you explore: turning in all seven to Shenron unlocks permanent stat boosts that make late-game fights far easier. Don’t skip side quests, as most reward massive XP gains and rare unique items you can’t purchase from shops, such as weighted clothing that permanently boosts your attack stats. For tough boss fights, always activate Super Saiyan transformation before engaging: the damage and defense boost far outweighs the Ki drain, and you can charge Ki mid-fight to replenish your energy. Use each character’s unique abilities to uncover secrets: Piccolo’s stretching arm reaches out-of-reach ledges, Trunks’ sword cuts through blocked trees, Goku’s flight crosses large gaps, and Vegeta’s energy blasts destroy breakable rock walls. If you struggle with the final Perfect Cell fight at the Cell Games, grind 2-3 levels in the surrounding wilderness to get your HP over 300, and stock up on Senzu Beans from the West City item shop. To unlock the game’s secret ending and hidden Broly boss fight, collect all 25 Hidden Capsules scattered across the map before clearing the main story. Always save your game after exploring new areas, as the game has no auto-save feature.
