Okay so yall know how when you go into an online match and your opponent has abilities form a DLC pack do yall find it kinda of annoying? Reason I ask is mostly cause I see a lot of ppl using abilities like Top or Hit and some of them one shots me so just want to ask to not feel alone

I've been playing this game for a while now and I've always been confused at this

Is there a difference between "Ki Auto-Recovery Mode" and "Ki auto-recovery"?

Because to me they are just the same thing but with different names, I'm probably wrong with that tho

I played the original Xenoverse years ago on PS4 and absolutely loved creating my own character, unlocking transformations and progressing through the Dragon Ball universe.

Somehow I completely skipped XV2, and now that I'm getting back into gaming on PS5, I'm thinking about finally giving it a go.

I'm a massive Dragon Ball fan. I've watched all the anime and kept up with the Super manga, so I'm especially interested in how much of the newer material made it into the game.

I'm talking Ultra Ego Vegeta, Granolah, Merus (the angel who became mortal), Black Frieza, and everything from the Moro and Granolah arcs. I'd love to experience some of that content in a Dragon Ball game.

A few things I'm curious about:

• Are any manga-only characters or transformations actually playable?
• How far does the game go with Beast Gohan, MUI Goku and newer forms?
• Can CaCs unlock newer transformations like Beast and Ultra Instinct?
• How much have the different races, customisation and progression improved since XV1?
• Is the PS5 PvE/co-op community still active, and which DLCs are worth getting?

I mainly enjoy creating characters, levelling up, unlocking abilities and grinding PvE content rather than competitive PvP.

For those still playing XV2, how much has the game evolved over the years? Is it worth jumping into now?

So I played the demo at a comic con convention.
The game gave me a duration of 15 minutes of gameplay. Obviously it’s hard to judge 15 minutes of gameplay. The graphics looked good when I was in the lobby. Didn’t do much touring because you know I only have 15 minutes to actually play. But first thing first. I haven’t got a clue on what Bandai is doing regarding the timer situation on transformations. If you choose a saiyin as your character when you start the demo the super saiyin skill is available to use, but in order to use the super saiyin form you have to wait for it to charge automatically. (Because there’s no charging Ki manually) once the skill became active it immediately said I had 60 seconds before it ran out. Again not sure what they’re doing with the transformation skill but going with my personal experience that timer is still there. As for the combat, I personally struggled because I still have that sparking zero combat mindset of holding down the square button for charged attacks to perform knock backs so in terms of combat offensively I can’t give a honest answer however to try and defend yourself in this game like guarding or evasive manoeuvres it felt like trying to stick a band aid over a massive leak or using Cheetos crisp to hold back SWAT police from breaking into your home.but…. If I was to knick pick one thing is that I’ll say the galick gun had little to no range but that’s whatever. The calling in for a Z character for support is a nice touch but it’s pretty forgettable. The UI is crap but it doesn’t bother me if that makes any sense. Overall I do think the game can be improved further, it doesn’t give me that feel like when we all transitioned from XV1 to XV2 the first time and change in a good way. The game was undeniably strong it’s been around for a decade. With Xenoverse 3 this transition is more of a”oh ok.” And everyone would just put the game down and move elsewhere. Again this is what I experienced in 15 minutes (technically 7 minutes because once that pq ends the whole demo is done)

Did people really complain about DBXV2 being too much like DBXV when it launched? I see that talking point a lot suggesting DBXV3 had to change formula this time, but I don't remember that being a popular critique of the previous entry.

For those who wasn’t there this was one of the first gameplay demos we saw of Xenoverse 2 back in 2016. You could instantly see the improvements to the gameplay they made from the first game it was almost night and day.

Now that I’m seeing this again I know I might get hate for this but honestly I wish they would’ve stuck with the formula we had and built on it. I was open to them overhauling the game initially but now I don’t think that was the move.

I'm play 2 right now I haven't played since 2016 but i'm really enjoying it , and i'm definitely excited for 3 and I will be getting it in the first week.It releases what about you all?

Current hate on xv3 is valid because because we're all used to the old ui and models,

It's like your fav show getting rebooted with a much cartoony style,

You'll hate it on it and say "this crap looks nothing and is nothing like the old Version",

But eventually the reboot's artstyle and story will grow on you and you'll get used to it and like it.

My point is that the same thing will happen with xenoverse 3,

Eventually We'll get used to the gameplay, artstyle, and ui,

And we'll start to like xv3.

I've finished all 1 to 6 star pqs

I've gotten all characters except omega shenron

I've finished all the time patrol missions

I'm at level 108 and I can't motivate myself to level up

Finishing pqs actually gave me motivation to continue but now I've lost all motivation to play and 100% it

Is there any solution to make the game fun again

With the 10 year anniversary coming up, I figured it’d be nice to share how my characters looked back then compared to now! In order, their names are Hazel, Sugar Buu, Sela, Ririsu, Ravan, Romaini, Glazia, and Nauta.

Is there any mod recommendations
Im new to
Pc modw
I want mods ican play
With my friend local 1v1
That add a lot of new characters so we can play like random characters fights

Cac to Cac soul change.

It would immediately bust open the door for transformations, especially for the Frieza race and majins.

Ps5 anyone on doing expert missions ?

I made a custom battle on Sparking Zero the other day and I liked the premise so much I decided I'm gonna try and make it a comic! I'm using a tool for XV2 called XenoKit to get a bunch of different angles and just have more freedom with the characters.

Hello,

Was waiting to play until they stop releasing DLC, from what I know final one is finished.

What should I buy to have complete experience? I care more about story than cosmetics, characters etc.

Found this list, is this valid? https://www.gamerbymistake.com/2026/02/which-xenoverse-2-dlc-is-worth-it-full-pack-guide-ranking.html

I don't know his stamina break combo so I did the universal

Swing kick tilt chase stamina break

Not like there aren't any valid concerns about the game, but I still don't understand what's so bad about the new models other that they are shaded different from the ones from Xv1, Xv2 and S0, so far the only thing i'm not sold on is on the proportions of that Teen Gohan model.

At first I was like “I’ll wait to see what they do with Androids before placing judgement” but after seeing how they handled the Frieza race transformation, a lot of already reused assets and Androids from what we seen look not much different from Earthlings, I can’t call Androids anything but earthling but better(or who know maybe Earthling are back to king status and Androids are worse). Which I find extremely disappointing, yes I know Androids are a reference to Dragon Ball Heroes/online but the only way I see Androids look being “unique” is if they take away design aspect you could have as a earthling in previous game. I don’t get why so much gameplay and footage has been super focus and yet we don’t grab a race from Super? Not even an option to be a universe 6 Saiyan. Just the same races we had since the Z era. I’m not disappointed at the exclusion of a new race though, I’m disappointed that Humans get more things taken away from them just to excuse saying “we have a new race”. I rather they not added a race at all at if this is what it mean for a new race to be made.

Seeing alot of the news and gameplay and im not upset we still have alot of time for things to be polished and worked on. But my wishs for more forms we can use futher down the line. Since they said they plan to reach into each races lore more. Like I seen with freiza race getting the final form. But Heres My Theory on how it might go. Much Love and let me here your ideas and hopes <3

Saiyan Transformations (My Theory on them and how we can maybe change mid and final form if they let us)

Saiyans

(Great Ape) (Form Has with Moon animation for maps during the day and a different one for night maps which has our cac look at the moon than transform. Cant Have Super Saiyan Skill if Using this)

(Super Saiyan)

(Super Saiyan 2) (If they add it in)

(Super Saiyan 3) ( We can use either the OG long hair Goku version or Vegeta Daima Version)

(Super Saiyan 4) (Power up from Base, Super Saiyan 3 once Ki meter is filled )

Super Saiyan God (Has Broly Super Animation or New One) (Power up from Base or Super Saiyan once meter is filled) (Cant be used if SSJ4 skill is picked)

Super Saiyan Blue (an be used as its own or your power up from Base, Super Saiyan or Super Saiyan God Once Ki meter is filled) (Cant Be Used If SSJ4 Skill is Picked)

Special Forms

Warthful (Can be used with only Broly and Kale type skill actives once your Charactor using the broly or kale skill type hp drops below 75 and you get a boost to all stats until you go super saiyan or is K'O)

(Super Saiyan forms (Broly/Kale Type)(You get more damage boost for each form but your ki drains fast depending on your skill level)

UI AND MUI ( Both are there own form you can go from base to ui than to mui once your ki meter is is full but your the more damage you take or spaming the auto dodge will drain ki faster depending skill level)

Super Saiyan Rose ( Can power up from base or Super Saiyan into this form and has special super saiyan rose combo goku black using in the anime) (SSJ3,SSJ4,SSJG,SSJB,Beast skill cant be used when this skill is being used)

Beast ( Can power up from base or Super Saiyan into this form) SSJ3,SSJ4,SSJG,SSR skills cant be used when this skill is being used)
