Today, Bandai Visual announced that Akira Toriyama's popular manga and anime series "Dragon Ball" will become an online game called "Dragon Ball Online". Toriyama will oversee the project, while the Tokyo/Seoul-based company "NTL" will develop it. The game is scheduled for a release in 2008 in Japan, but a beta test in Korea will start this summer. Fees and payment schedules are undecided at this time.
The game itself is based in a world several hundred years after the events of Dragon Ball. This allows for both well-known characters and all-new characters to be introduced to gamers. Players can freely customize their hair, clothing and other facets of their character, group with other players and defeat powerful enemies and quests. Players can also challenge one another in combat.
Currently, there will be at least three playable races, Human, Saiyan, and Namekian, and players will be able to further customize their avatars with a variety of options, including hairstyles, colors, and clothing. Players also have the option to start their journey as a child, allowing their character to age and grow into adulthood as they play the game, much like the main characters of the original series.

Certainly has potential. I hope my PC can run it, the character models are insane. It'll probably cost fees but if it's good enough I'd hope that I'm not the only one who'd play a Dragon Ball MMO around here. You scamps and your Naruto! *shakes walking stick*
