Super Dragon Punch Force 3 Story
The game, albeit named otherwise, is the first existing game for the series. It is only named as such as it spawns off the movie Boy Kills World, being featured initially as a simple easter egg that eagle eyed fans caught in passing. The game SPDF 3 was seen on a monitor screen for a few seconds during one of the film’s sequences, and thus the game was born.
As for the game’s story, not a lot has been revealed yet. Based on the game’s roster, though, it looks like that the in-film video game will be self-referential, what with the movie’s characters appearing as playable fighters in the game. We’ll find out more in future updates about the game by Talent Digital Art.
