Dokkan Battle its easily the most successful game in the Dragon Ball franchise. In fact, if you add up unit sales of every Dragon Ball game out there, you get about 59 million in total sales according to VGChartz. If we assume the average selling price per unit is $50, all retail Dragon Ball games did a little under $3B in total sales. This $50 figure is conservative as many of these games are DS and Game Boy titles which sold for less than $50. Given this, it seems like Dragon Ball Z: Dokkan Battle has generated more revenue than every other Dragon Ball game combined.
