Check out the first look at the new DS Dragon Ball game inside...

Currently just titled Dragon Ball DS, the upcoming DS-exclusive action adventure from Namco Bandai has been shown off in the latest issue of the Japanese gaming magazine V-Jump.

Out later this year in Japan, the action is set to take place in the original Dragon Ball anime universe, and appears to have a similar style of graphics to the recent DS Final Fantasy titles. Players use the stylus to direct Goku, and tap to attack enemies or interact with objects - similar to Zelda: Phantom Hourglass.
