CMON And IDW Fuse To Form Dragon Ball Z Miniature Game
July 24, 2019 by dracs
CMON and IDW Games have announced that they will be joining forces in order to bring the classic Toei Animation show Dragon Ball Z to the tabletop.
In their Facebook announcement, CMON gave us a bit more of an idea what to expect:
CMON and IDW Games are fusing their talents to bring Dragon Ball Z to the table top in 2020!
Leveraging IDW’s creative partnership with Toei Animation and CMON’s masterful work in game design and miniature production, Dragon Ball Z Miniature Mayhem will be a fast-paced, dice-driven, battle royale.
Players will get to create their dream “what if” showdowns as many of the iconic heroes and villains will face off against each other in an effort to determine who’s the strongest fighter in the universe. Stay tuned!
So far, there haven't been any further details on how the game itself will play out. Given CMON's expertise with miniature-focused board games, I think we can expect to see many of the classic characters from the show as models.
I'm hoping we get to see some particularly dramatic poses with these, and a mechanic that means a player literally has to strike a pose and yell for two turns to charge could be fun.
Kame...Hame...

This looks very cool. I hope they execute a fun, well written game. Im not sure how they would start with this with the varying power levels and nature of combat in the DBZ universe, but I can’t wait to see HOW they do it! 🙂
My excitement is over 9000…
…not. How will they make a good game out of a anime that stretches fights over hooooours?!
9,000 @sundancer ? Those are rookie numbers.
well…. it’s a number XD
My interest is beyond 9000! I just want to paint some DBZ characters.
Is this game going to have rules for powering up several days while opponent can’t do anything about it?
Long dragged out turns? They might be basing this on 40k.
any pictures of the figures.
Would be pretty funny to see characters at different flight levels pulling off dives or uppercuts that bring both characters into the sky.
I think Justin should play Frieza with a goatee painted on :’D
And here I was actually convinced that I wasn’t going to spend anymore money on any NEW miniature game and then this news drops…
