One of the great surprises of the Summer Game Fest is the announcement that we will be getting a new game in Unreal Engine 5 inspired by a work of Akira Toriyama. And that work is not Dragon Ball, but Sand Land. With an extremely faithful look to the manga, which appears to be a 1:1 reproduction of the famous mangaka’s artwork, it seems to be an open world where we will embody the titular protagonist, Rao, as he travels through the desert in a world where water is scarce and demons and humans must coexist and fight to survive.
Announced for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Microsoft Windows, and Xbox Series X and Series S, Sand Land still does not have a release date. In any case, all fans of Akira Toriyama, even those who only know Dragon Ball, are in luck because Sand Land captures the spirit of Son Goku’s childhood adventures. And if this game can reproduce that spirit as faithfully as it reproduces its artwork, we are talking about a potential masterpiece.
