About Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 3
A 3D arena fighter with one of the largest Dragon Ball rosters ever — over 160 characters, destructible stages and flight.
Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 3 (2007) by Spike is a behind-the-back 3D fighter in which battles span whole open arenas: you fly, dash, fire ki blasts and smash opponents through mountains and buildings. It is famous for its enormous roster of more than 160 characters including forms and transformations.
Dragon History retells the Dragon Ball, Z, GT and movie arcs, and Ultimate Battle and Disc Fusion add plenty of extra modes. This browser page runs the console version through emulation; plug in a gamepad for the best experience.

How to play Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 3 in your browser
- Press Play in browser — the game opens on dragonballbt3.online in a new tab.
- Wait while the game files load. The first start can take from a few seconds to a few minutes depending on your connection; later starts are faster because the browser caches the files.
- Click inside the game window so it captures the keyboard and mouse, then switch to fullscreen (F11 or the host's fullscreen button).
- Open the in-game settings to adjust controls, graphics and sound. Progress is normally kept in your browser storage, so don't clear site data if you want to keep your saves.

What to expect from the browser version
The browser version of Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 3 is an independent web project — a port, recompilation or fan remake — hosted on dragonballbt3.online. It is not an official release from Namco Bandai / Atari, and MePlayable does not host any game files: we describe the game and link to the project.
Because the game runs inside a browser tab, some features of the 2007 original may be missing or work differently: online modes, cutscenes, saves, mods and graphics options depend on the build. If something doesn't work, check the host's own notes.
Requirements
A modern desktop browser — Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Opera or Safari 16+ — with WebAssembly and WebGL enabled, at least 4 GB of RAM and a stable connection for the first load. Hardware acceleration should be switched on in the browser settings.
If Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 3 doesn't start
- Black screen or endless loading — update the browser, enable hardware acceleration and reload the page with Ctrl+F5.
- No sound — click inside the game window: browsers only allow audio after you interact with the page.
- Lag or low FPS — close other heavy tabs and programs, then lower the resolution or graphics settings in the game.
- The site doesn't open — the host may be temporarily down or blocked in your region. Try again later or use another project link on this page.
