Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot’s Story Arc DLC will arrive after its “A New Power Awakens” DLC, which handles two “episodes” that each feature a distinctive boss battle. The first episode released only a few days ago on June 03, 2025, and sawplayers fighting Dragon Ball Super’s God of Destruction, Beerus.
Since Beerus' episode primarily focuses on simply fighting him, it doesn’t take very long to beat — probably only around an hour, give or take; it depends on what level the player decides to enter the DLC at. But a new leak reveals thatDragon Ball Z: Kakarot’s Story Arc DLCwill be much longer.

It comes from Ken Xyro, a Twitter user well-known for accurately reportingDragon Ball Z: Kakarotnews. He claims that the episode will be about 8 to 12 hours long, which — as he also notes in his tweet — is about the same length as one of the story arcs featured inDragon Ball Z: Kakarot’s base game, so arcs like the Saiyan Saga, Frieza Saga, etc.
Precisely what saga the Stroy Arc DLC will cover remains a mystery, but A New Power Awakens gives fans a pretty good guess. The events caused byGoku and Vegeta’s first contact with Beerusmake up the very first arc of Dragon Ball Super, so most fans are relatively sure that the following DLC will cover Super’s succeeding storylines.
For example, the contents ofA New Power Awakens' episode 2also remain a mystery. But since Frieza’s Ressurection Arc comes after Beerus', it’s more than likely that the next DLC will focus on him. The fact that Frieza and his Golden Form is the only major “boss battle” in this arc makes this prediction reliable.
Following Frieza’s resurrection isThe Universe 6 Tournament Saga, which sees Goku and Vegeta in battles against many different opponents while also introducing new characters. It also details Goku obtaining another “new” powerup, as he adds his Kiaoken technique onto his Super Saiyan Blue state. In other words, the saga is a perfect fit for the Story Arc DLC, if it plans to be as long as a normal story.
The release date of the Story Arc DLC hasn’t come out yet, nor has the release date for the second episode of A New Power Awakens, but both pieces will arrive sometime this year.
Dragon Ball Z: Kakarotis available now for PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
