DRAGON BALL XENOVERSE 2 DLC PACK 4 RELEASE DATE PC SERIES
These Parallel Quests become the backbone of some of the most interesting moments in the Xenoverse series as some villains are killed early, allowed to live, or even win their fights against Goku and his friends. One of the biggest draws to Dragon Ball Xenoverse isn't actually the retreading over older storylines from Dragon Ball Z, but instead from the original material that comes as a result of the timeline getting fiddled with. RELATED: Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot - How Goku Black Could Work So while Super characters and forms appear in FighterZ, the actual story arcs haven't really seen much representation in a way that a Dragon Ball Xenoverse 3 could. Instead FighterZ created it's own story that acts as a completely separate arc from any of the ones found in the main series that could theoretically be slotted into place like many of the early Dragon Ball Z movies had been. Every new game in the series is now obligated to include some of the new transformations at the very least, with Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot adding Super Saiyan God form recently, even though it didn't originally go beyond the events of Majin Buu.Įven Dragon Ball FighterZ, the game that delves into Dragon Ball Super the most, doesn't actually touch on the new stories presented in the anime or manga. The second game in the series released in time to maximize on the first to movies that would eventually go on to become the opening story arcs of Super, but the series has greatly expanded since then. Now, as much as some subset of the fanbase would like to see Dragon Ball GT get a fair shake, the real star power that Bandai Namco could bring to Xenoverse 3 would come from Dragon Ball Super. Similarly, the nature of the Xenoverse games' storylines also means that much of the filler that plagued GT and the inconsistent storylines can be trimmed to give the Black Star Dragon Ball and Shadow Dragon sagas a more concise adaptation. Players are now excited to see Super Baby 2 and now Super Saiyan 4 Gogeta in Dragon Ball FighterZ, thanks in part to the incredible designs that appeared in the series. Of course, it's been quite some time since Dragon Ball GT first premiered, and while many of the critiques still hold water, the perception of the series has certainly aged to be better than the initial response. Much of the criticism that GT faced when released in both Japan and to the West is likely the reason that the series really hasn't seen as many adaptations as any other arc. A DLC pack did come out for the first Dragon Ball Xenoverse that introduced some of GT's characters and storylines, but it was minimal at best, as is often the case with the non-canon series. The recent introduction of Super Baby 2 in Dragon Ball FighterZ, has really opened the door for more Dragon Ball GT content to finally get some representation within newer titles in the franchise. It's clear that those in charge are still ready to make new content for Xenoverse as well, seeing as the series continues to receive updates even four years after the last titles release. So, with so much of Dragon Ball still on the table, it only makes sense for developer Dimps and publisher Bandai Namco to push the brand forward and complete the set with all of the extended material the previous games haven't quite touched on yet.

Granted, considering the success of the series and where the last game ended before the additional content, there is plenty of room for a new game to cover more of the Dragon Ball animated and manga series, namely with Super. However, while the Xenoverse series had a strong opening, with two games releasing over two years, some fans have found it strange that Bandai Namco never moved forward with a Dragon Ball Xenoverse 3.Īt this point, it's looking worse and worse for the chances of actually getting a new entry in the Dragon Ball Xenoverse series as Bandai begins focusing on newer titles including the characters like Jump Force and FighterZ. Recent years have seen the release of some of the best games in the Dragon Ball franchise to date, with Dragon Ball Xenoverse and FighterZ coming out as some of the strongest contenders in the series.
