This results in you taking part in battles that span the series’ entirety, with dozens upon dozens of characters (both good and bad) making appearances throughout the journey. For the uninitiated, you are essentially tasked with joining up with heroes from the Dragon Ball universe to stop the bad guys from altering the events of iconic moments in the series’ history. The main attraction, of course, is the story and combat. The fact that the hub world isn’t divided up into sections that require loading times to get to each is a big plus over the first game, as well. It’s great that it can hold up to 300 players at once now, which will be cool to see once the game has launched and a lot more people are actually playing. It’s also very well-designed, with the game’s improved visuals over the first making the vibrant city really pop and feel right at home in the Dragon Ball universe. The hub world has also gotten an upgrade, as the first game’s hub of Toki Toki City is dwarfed in size by this game’s Conton City that is 7 times bigger.
The game’s RPG elements also ensure that you can fine-tune your characters abilities to your preferred play style, with plenty of gear, skills and stat upgrading to keep you engaged. You can play around with all sorts of different character faces, hair styles and so on to insert your creation right into the action with other Dragon Ball icons, and there are once again five different races to choose from. One of the hallmarks of the first game was its in-depth character creation feature, and that is back in full force here. Instead, Xenoverse 2 offers more of what the first game did, though in bigger and better ways. Let me get this out of the way first: if you were expecting a massive change with this sequel you are going to be disappointed. The beta for Xenoverse 2 will be our first taste of finding out whether or not the developers have been able to address the issues with the first game, and my experience with it so far has been fairly positive. While that game offered a nice change of pace for the series, it definitely had its fair share of problems that held it back from truly reaching greatness. Later this month will see the release of Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2, which is the follow-up to the bold new take on the Dragon Ball video game formula that launched a couple years back.
