Dragon Ball Z Kakarot is a completely different DBZ game to anything fans have ever played, and that’s a good thing. The sprawling open-world and various activities to complete allow players to truly immerse themselves in the world of the popular anime.

Of course, when it comes to DBZ, the order of the day is always going to be combat, and Surge is a powerful tool at your disposal. Here’s how to use Surge in Dragon Ball Z Kakarot and what it does.

What Does Surge Do?

If you’re looking to give your characters the upper-hand in Dragon Ball Z Kakarot, then Surge is something you’ll want to take advantage of. Surge buffs up your characters during battle with a few special effects.

All of your stats will be boosted, you can cancel super attacks and combos, and you’ll automatically chase opponents so you never ease up on the pressure.

How to Use Surge in Dragon Ball Z Kakarot

To use Surge, simply hold Y on Xbox One or Triangle on PS4 when the gauge to the right of your character portrait fills up.

Your Ki Gauge will need to recharge to full first, then once it’s full keep holding down the button for a few seconds and you’ll enter Surge.
