Dragon Ball: Xenoverse 2

Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 is a great sequel that has all you liked about the first and more!

Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 had a lot to live up to for fans of the franchise after the success of its predecessor, and while the game may not be for everyone, Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 offers yet another satisfying experience for Dragon Ball fans that is not one to be missed.

Bigger and simply better than its predecessor, Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 is great for newcomers, but those that have played the original will possibly find that not enough has changed for it to truly impress. It may not be the nicest looking game, but the gameplay loop is addictive and there are a massive number of things to see and do to keep you entertained for tens of hours, even more if you plan...

Broken DLC promises, long load times, and story padding hurt Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2, but it is still a game with plenty of content for Dragon Ball fans to sink their teeth into. It has a large roster full of diverse fighters, endless character creation possibilities, a streamlined hub world, and an engaging story. Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 is a vast improvement over the original, and should leave f...

While not a huge fan of Dragon Ball in general, I can say that I'm a fan of Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 on the Switch. It does have its flaws. Namely with the camera and some of the training. Plus the combat can get repetitive as you mash out the same combos, at least in the early going. But I can definitely say that I found a Dragon Ball game that I can enjoy coming back to from time to time.

Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 makes masssive improvements over it's predecessor but suffers from a lack of originality in the long run. It feels more like an extension of Xenoverse rather than a sequel.

Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2’s ambition is admirable, and though it’s riddled with a lot of silly little inconveniences, it mostly succeeds in giving DBZ fans an authentic-feeling world to dive into for the long haul. Though no individual element of its roleplaying or brawling gameplay is overly complex, taken as a whole there’s a surprising amount to consider while progressing your character, and enou...

Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2, despite its issues, is still an improvement over the original Xenoverse, although minimally. It has its letdowns but long-term it will offer a better experience due to Bandai Namco’s promised year of post-release support, including three DLC packs, as well as the present gameplay improvements and slightly more content. If you’re a Dragon Ball fan and enjoyed the first game...

Your wish is granted.

As rough as they were, I was a pretty big fan of the Budokai Tenkaichi fighting game series that Bandai Namco released for the PlayStation 2 era. It’s been great to watch those tournaments re-emerge in the Xenoverse series with its own twist and online gameplay. The first Xenoverse title wasn’t 100% successful with its ambitious endeavors, but developer Dimps definitely learned from their mistakes...

What do you picture when you think of the Dragon Ball franchise? Most likely it’s characters with ridiculous hair yelling and shooting beams from their hands. It’s absurd of course, but also carries a charm that has kept viewers enthralled for over 30 years. Despite the obvious links between the two formats, video game adaptations of the Dragon Ball series have almost always been underwhelming – t...

The second installment of the Dragon Ball: Xenoverse series relies on previously proven solutions, but it is difficult to consider this a positive. We expect much more from the sequel to such a game.
