Wow, I was away for a bit and surprised nobody made a topic of this yet. Anyways, the sequel to Xenoverse is happening. It's not that surprising considering how well the first game sold.

PV: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R7B7ZvcrOXQ
First Scan: http://fotos.fotoflexer.com/8415f79ff67 ... e8c37d.jpg

From the PV, the cutscenes look beautiful. We're getting a new hub world, and now you cab fly in it. Also, there are hints that your Custom Character from the first game can be imported to this sequel. Finally, it appears this game will cover more of the DBZ movies. Not much else is known - release window is 2016.

There are countless improvements to the battle system, to the customization, to the playable characters, and to the overall balance of the game that could be made. Lets hope they're not lazy and fix most of those issues.

I'm very shallow about my Dragon Ball games. The first question I always ask is "Does it have IGTs?" And if you don't know what that means, you are not hardcore enough. :tongue:

Xenoverse was the first DB game i thought was worth playing since Budokai Tenkaichi 3. Ultimate Butouden looked pretty good, but no English release and the only translation patch is a half-assed menu only translation, even though the main draw is the what-if scenarios.

I said and did some dumb and hurtful things in my time here when i was younger. If i ever hurt you, i'm sorry. If you see any of this while reading old threads, i'm learning and trying to improve. Donut redemption arc in progress.

It's so very mean that this is released on the same day as World of Final Fantasy and The Last Gardian, and only a month after FFXV. Then Pokemon and.... Damn it I don't have the time nor money to play all these games!!!
I mean, predictability is the central attraction and the narrative hook that we've all come to expect from the Evangelion franchise. How come Anno can't realize this? Twice? - FreakyFilmFan4ever

You gotta be selective. As I grew older I realized there is no way I can play everything I want, certain things need to be sacrificed in favor of others. For instance, I decided to go for FF XV and Berserk Musou this fall over Pokemon and DBZ. Time is really the biggest factor for me these days.
