Preserve the Past With Your Own Unique Character in DragonBall Xenoverse

The fate and history of the Dragon Ball universe as we know it rests in the hands of the players in Dragon Ball Xenoverse. Unveiled at a special Namco Bandai TGS2014 presser in Tokyo, DragonBall Xenoverse puts players in the shoes of a brand new, fully customizable character which travels from the future to set the past right e.g the way we know it from the comic books. Similar (albeit opposite) to the premise of X-Men: Days of Future Past, it is all about maintaining what happened, rather than changing what have transpired.

Before you go "Hey I'm gonna be Trunks!" , hold on a sec. You're not.

In DragonBall Xenoverse, players now get the freedom to create their own character of any race - Buu, Namekian, Saiyan or Earthling - complete with customizable moves to be included into the storyline.

Looks like Picollo but ... don't they all do?
Male earthling? Where's your imagination?

This character will then travel to key moments in the DragonBall historical timeline to help Goku and gang in some of their most poignant battles such as the ones against Vegeta and Nappa, fending off Cell and Androids 17 and 18 to battling Majin Buu.

Apart from the singleplayer missions, players can take on the multiplayer aspect of the game with a maximum of three players at one go. In case you are wondering, yes. You can still play as any of your favorite DragonBall characters in the game but why would you want to when you have your very own created character waiting on the sidelines eh?

With improved graphics compared to the past titles including more destruction, along with better lighting & particle effects, DragonBall Xenoverse will be the first DragonBall title to hit both the Xbox One and PS4 and will still be available on the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.
