About Super Attacks
Before players dive deep into the methods of unlocking the Super Attacks of their choice, it can be helpful to know a little bit about them and what they do. Super Attacks are aptly named moves that are used during combat and are absolutely invaluable during certain boss battles. The Super Attack palette can be brought up during battle by pressing L1 or the Left Bumper of the controller. Mixing up the bumpers is acommon mistake inDBZ: Kakarot, so be mindful of what trigger opens up the palette.
It’s also important to remember that Super Attacks require Ki to use. Ki is represented by the blue bar and number underneath the character portrait. One veryhelpful tip forDragon Ball Z: Kakarotis that charging up Ki takes very little time during crucial moments, so players should always be aware of how much they have left.
Unlocking Super Attacks
There are several ways to go about unlocking Super Attacks. First and foremost, some Super Attacks can be unlocked simply by progressing through the game’s mainstory. However, players will still have to ensure those Super Attacks are slotted in the palette to use them. Additionally, some Super Attacks require players to reach a certain level first.
To unlock Super Attacks, open the main menu, select characters and select the chosen character. Then, press the Y or Triangle button to open that character’s skill tree. Most Super Attacks require unlocking multiple sequences before the Super Attack can be used.
To unlock Super Attacks, players are going to need a lot of D medals and Z orbs. Both of these items can be found by roaming around the game’s open world or by completing side quests.

Finally, Super Attacks can also be unlocked by completing certain training missions at the training grounds.
