What Dragon Ball content should I know before playing this game?

[Tidus755]

When I was a kid, I read the original mangas and loved them. I reread all of these volumes again this year, and a couple volumes of Dragon Ball Super.

 

So, I know who Beerus is, and I'll probably read the rest of DB Super before I seriously play this game.

 

However, I feel like I might be missing some knowledge before I play the game. Characters like Broly and a bunch of other Saiyans that never existed in the content I've read.

 

If you guys have any pointers as to what movies/books content to consume before playing so that I have a decent knowledge beforehand, I would greatly appreciate it...

Cheers!

Dragon Ball Super, all the episodes of the anime, and the sequel movies, Broly and Superhero. The manga of Dragon Ball Super contains new arcs and characters that have not been animated yet and they aren't in the game, so you don't need to read the manga. 

 

Many characters appeared only in the filler episodes of Dragon Ball Z and in the old movies.
