A sequel to last years awesome Dragon Ball Xenoverse is on the way to new gen consoles and PC… this year!
Check out the press release and trailer below. I’m certainly excited! We had a ton of fun with the original and with this version being on only newer consoles it will be interesting to see what sort of improvements are incorporated. The biggest part of the first release was being able to customize your own character and develop them throughout the storyline. It will be interesting to see how that has been expanded upon especially!
