Noticias ALEJANDRO Posted March 30, 2024 Posted March 30, 2024 At the beginning of March, news broke of the death of Akira Toriyama, creator of Dragon Ball, Sand Land, Dr. Slump and more iconic works. The announcement shocked thousands of fans, who did not hesitate to pay all kinds of tributes. The companies also joined together and now Xbox gave a gift to fans to honor the legacy of the Japanese mangaka. Although his work in the manga and anime industry is the most recognized, the Japanese creative also had an extensive professional resume in the video game industry. In addition to expanding the Dragon Ball universe with new characters, he served as the designer of some of the most memorable JRPGs in history. Akira Toriyama was actively involved in the development of Chrono Trigger and the Dragon Quest franchise. He was also in charge of designing the characters of Blue Dragon, which debuted in 2007 exclusively for Xbox 360. To remember this cult classic, Microsoft prepared a very special gift for Xbox Series X | S users. While PlayStation 5 users criticize the lack of options to customize the console's interface, Xbox Series X|S players can download dynamic backgrounds to change the look of the main menu and give a personal touch to their experience. Along these lines, Xbox has pampered users of its next-gen consoles with multiple images inspired by Apex Legends, Halo Infinite, Cyberpunk 2077 and more titles. It also gave away 7 dynamic backgrounds that commemorate real-life events. Luckily, the catalog continues to grow and recently a new art inspired by Blue Dragon arrived to pay tribute to Akira Toriyama, who participated in that project more than 10 years ago. The role-playing game can be enjoyed on next-gen Microsoft consoles through the backward compatibility feature. Right now, it costs $19.99 USD or $299 MXN on the Xbox store. But tell us, what do you think of this great gift? Have you already claimed the dynamic background? Let us read you in the comments.
