According to a report from GamesIndustry.biz, NetEase invested more than $100 million in the studio.

Dragon Ball legends, the latest video game entry in the mega-popular anime is available for download today for free on iOS and Android devices. Legends is a fast-paced card battling game that pits players against one another with "intuitive one finger controls" and lets them duel each other around the globe.
The major selling point for many fans will be the introduction of three new characters designed by Akira Toriyama himself, the original creator of the Dragon Ball universe.
The game was originally unveiled in March and broke records for pre-registration at Bandai Namco with over 4.5 million users. In celebration, players who start today will get Frieza, Goku, a rare character, and chrono crystals (an item used to call new fighters in).
