In addition to two hours of main story content, the Goku's Next Journey DLC provides Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot players with ten additional substories to sink their teeth into. Much like the ones found in the base version of the game and some of the other DLC episodes, these substories are a great way to level up characters while also earning some useful rewards. They're all pretty short too, so players won't need to set aside too much time to complete them.

Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot - All Cutscenes and Conversations in Goku's Next Journey

There's around one hour of cutscenes and conversations in Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot's Goku's Next Journey DLC; all of which can be found right here.

Two of the substories in Goku's Next Journey can only be tackled at certain points during the main story, with the other eight becoming available upon its completion. Thankfully, those who miss the first two substories can replay them by making use of the Story Replay mode, which can be accessed by interacting with the time machine near the Capsule Corp building in West City. Some substories only unlock once others have been completed, so Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot players may want to tackle them in the order below.

Phone Trouble at Kame House Substory Walkthrough

Phone Trouble at Kame House is available during the Five-Year Reunion section of Episode 1 and can be triggered by speaking with Master Roshi over at Kame House after telling him about the World Tournament. He'll mention that his phone hasn't been working lately and then send Goku off to investigate the source of some nearby radio interference. Once they're able to, players should fly north to the quest marker to find a Frieza Force Researcher who sends out some Combat Machines. After defeating them, Goku will destroy the nearby satellite dish, allowing players to return to Master Roshi and turn in the quest.

The Right Hand of Piccolo Substory Walkthrough

Players will be able to trigger the Right Hand of Piccolo substory during the Goku's Goal section of Episode 2 before speaking with the Tournament Staff to begin the battle against Uub. To do so, they'll need to fly north from the tournament grounds and speak with the Suspicious Man on the hillside overlooking the city. After defeating some of his robots, Goku will agree to introduce the man to Piccolo, meaning that players will need to head back down to the tournament grounds and speak with the Namekian there. Following more conversations, players will need to defeat some more robots while playing as Pan, after which, The Right Hand of Piccolo will come to an end and players will be able to claim their rewards.

Supporting the Son Family's Appetite Substory Walkthrough

The Supporting the Son Family's Appetite substory becomes available after completing Saga of Two Saiyans and can be triggered by speaking with Chi-Chi and Videl outside Goku's home. After speaking with Gohan and Goten, players will need to make their way to the Central Plains Area and find Piccolo, who'll recall that Gohan used to like eating dinosaurs. Players will then be tasked with acquiring two pieces of Lean Dino Meat. To do so, they'll need to shoot some of the nearby dinosaurs with ki blasts, which can be done by holding L2 (PlayStation) or LT (Xbox) and then pressing either the Square (PlayStation) or X (Xbox) button. Once they've collected the meat, players will need to return to Piccolo and then deliver the food to Gohan to turn in the quest. In addition to the rewards listed below, players will also receive a Goku's Next Journey-themed Gohan Soul Emblem.

Over 9000 Memories Substory Walkthrough

The Over 9000 Memories substory can be started by speaking with Dende in the Central Plains Area at any point after completing the main story. To complete it, players will need to fly to the nearby quest marker and examine the Memorial Spot to trigger a fight with Nappa. After defeating the once mighty Saiyan, players can return to Dende to turn in the quest. In addition to the rewards listed below, players will also unlock more Memorial Spots around the map, allowing them to relive more of Goku's most iconic battles.

A Day with Krillin's Family Substory Walkthrough

Players will be able to trigger A Day with Krillin's Family by speaking with Krillin in Gingertown after they've completed the main story. Doing so will reveal that Android 18 has lost her necklace, which prompts Goku and Krillin to offer to help look for it. Just as it's starting to seem as though they'll never find it, the pair overhear two suspicious men talking about a necklace they found. When they regain control, players will simply need to run forward to the quest marker and then defeat a bunch of robots. Once the mechanical menaces have been taken care of, Krillin will return with the necklace and the substory will come to an end. In addition to the rewards listed below, players will also get special Goku's Next Journey Soul Emblems for Krillin, Android 18, and Marron.

Buu and the Chocolate Incident Substory Walkthrough

Players will be able to start Buu and the Chocolate Incident by speaking with Mr. Satan at his home in Satan City after completing the main story. They'll be tasked with obtaining three pieces of Super Cacao, which can be found growing in the Blake Bog area. Unfortunately, the exact Super Cacao location is far from clear, with the quest marker doing very little to guide players to their intended destination. Rather than head west into the bog itself as the marker suggests, players should instead look for a small green circle just north of their starting location. It's to the south of a green Training Grounds icon and west of a stone tower. Once in this area, players can use Goku's ki sense ability by holding either L1 (PlayStation) or LB (Xbox), which will make finding the Super Cacao a lot easier. Upon picking up all three pieces, players will run into Melone and will need to beat up some of his goons, after which, they can return to Mr. Satan and defeat Mr. Buu to finally turn in the quest.

Goten's Wild Imagination Substory Walkthrough

Goten's Wild Imagination can be triggered by talking to Chi-Chi inside Goku's house at any point after completing Saga of Two Saiyans and the Supporting the Son Family's Appetite substory. Once they've started the quest, players should make their way to Kame House and then choose "West City" and "Capsule Corporation" when quizzed by Master Roshi. This will result in Goku making his way over to Capsule Corp, where players should look for Goten and Trunks to the northeast of the compound. After defeating the former in battle, players will be taken back to Kame House, where they'll finally learn the truth about Master Roshi's treasure. In addition to the rewards listed below, players will also unlock a special Goku's Next Journey-themed Soul Icon for Trunks.

Two Old Men Substory Walkthrough

Two Old Men becomes available after completing Saga of Two Saiyans and the Buu and the Chocolate Incident substory and can be triggered by speaking with Pan at Mr. Satan's House in Satan City. To complete the quest, players will simply need to wait until they regain control of Goku and then fly north to find the two thugs at the blue quest marker. After beating up the thugs' robots, players will automatically be returned to Mr. Satan's house and the substory will come to an end. In addition to the story rewards listed below, players will also receive a special Mr. Satan Soul Emblem as a reward for completing the Two Old Men substory.

Destruction Machine F Substory Walkthrough

Players will gain access to Destruction Machine F after completing the main story, though only if they took the time to complete the Phone Trouble at Kame House substory during their playthrough. To get the ball rolling, they'll need to speak with Bulma at Capsule Corp, after which, they'll want to fly northwest to the quest marker, where they'll find the Frieza Force Researcher from earlier on. After some talking, a fight will ensue. Players should focus on taking out all of the grunts first, as doing so will allow them to focus on taking down the Destruction Machine without having to worry about taking damage from elsewhere. Once the fight is over, players will be returned to Capsule Corp automatically and the substory will come to an end. In addition to the rewards listed below, players will receive a Goku's Next Journey-themed Bulma Soul Emblem.

Bulla's Wish Substory Walkthrough

Bulla's Wish is the final Goku's Next Journey substory and becomes available once players have completed the Destruction Machine F substory. To start it, players will need to speak with Bulla, who can be found together with Bulma and Oolong on a small island in the Southeast Islands area. After starting the quest, players will need to find the missing Dragon Ball in the nearby water and then take it back to Bulma and Bulla. They'll ask Goku to fetch Vegeta, who is hanging around outside Capsule Corp. Talking to him there will lead to players automatically being taken back to the Southeast Islands, where they'll need to defeat copies of Goku and Vegeta. Once the fight ends, so too will the substory, and players will receive a Bulla Soul Emblem as well as the rewards listed below as their reward.
