"Dragon Ball XENOVERSE 2" Official Discussion Thread

It looks like Goku is holding a lightning bolt in one of those images. He's about to go Old Testament on someone.

I think you mean "Zeus".

Basically you can choose to help Fuu and change history or fix it. It causes multiple branches that you can choose from. This is exactly what I’ve been asking for. I wanted XV3 to have this on a larger scale for its whole story mode. The only thing that could make this better is a new stage which I hope we still get.

I kinda hope we can play both versions of the story. I'm still kinda mad that I couldn't team up with Zarbon & Cooler with my character in the game after I chose Dodoria & Frieza, just so I could do the alternate version of that subplot. I'd also wanna see both storylines in how they'd play out. I mean, I kinda get normal story stuff locking you out of alternate ones, but DLC missions should allow you to do both, especially when they included a what-if at the end of the main story campaign specifically to show what would've happened if Trunks went to help Gohan in his timeline's past.

It implies that you can go back and unlock all the possible routes. SO YEAH. Hype!

Judging from that pic in the scan, Android 21 will be a master in XV2?

No, that's just a CAC wearing a #21 costume.

[Codarik]

Well dang, would've been nice to have A21 in the game, still a nice little crossover.

...None of you heard that.

I was already hyped for all this, but oh my Zamasu, I don't think I can get more hyped for this! Especially if you can actually alter the timeline.
Please let this be everything I anticipate. How is it Goku puts it? "Waku waku zo," is that right?

This news was a legit awesome way to start off my day.
Dimps, you treat me so well.

On a side note, I do still prefer UI Omen, but I don't hate the complete UI.

Is that part of the DLC story??? because i don't remember anything about that in the game normal story mode, i actually thought the DLC in the first Xenoverse would give you only new characters plus some paralel quest, it wasn't until later i found out there was some little follow up too after you beat Demigra.

They're referring to the Freeza Force Time Egg side-quest thing, where you get the Golden Form for Freeza Clan CACs.

[Kanassa]

Who usually does the translations for V-Jump scans?

I'm referring to the story side mission at Frieza's spaceship. Did you not do it? I find that very hard to believe if you didn't.

Well, I hope so because I'm gonna choose the "correct the timeline" path if I can't go back & do the other one afterwards. This is, unfortunately, a game about time travel that doesn't let you do both diverging paths in the few small missions that have them, which I find to be really wasted in terms of gameplay options.

[AnimeNation101]

Here’s the full translated scan:



UI Goku as the expert mission dodge.
Its seems like he can also use his ki to charge up his stamina
He has a melee attack that can be used 3 times if you input the command 3 times
His Ult seems to be a rush attack that ends in a blast

The Story has you going to through other timelines and either fixing or changing them. You can also bring your master and certain masters trigger certain events. The new Tokipedia feature allows you to look over the events that you ended up with. You can unlock all possible events.

We also get more animated cutscenes. In the pic, the Supreme Kai of Time looks like she’s in danger...

[ShadowBardock89]

This is actually exciting!
I wonder what scenarios we will get?

[Cetra]

SPECIAL MOVE DODGE!!

That Gohan burn.

The scan uses the example of changing the ending of the Cell Saga by siding with the Androids.

No, not the Waifu!

[ArchedThunder]

Sounds really neat, I wonder if this "fix history or change it" stuff is a test bed for their plans with XV3.

[Xaroc]

SPECIAL MOVE DODGE!!

That explains why Gohan doesn't get this new form instead of Gokuu. He simply can't learn it, that's all.

Anyway, I'm hyped. So it will basically be the Main Story again, but this time, you can actually change events, did I get this right? Nice.
Preventing Nappa from being killed, killing Freeza but letting Coola live. Too bad there probably won't be bigger changes available like Boo actually absorbing Vegetto (for real) or Tales (Turles) going Super Saiyajin. I hope at least Nappa and Radditz can use the Super Saiyajin Skills as Mentors. I mean, we're supposed to change movestes of our mentors this time, right?
Depending how deep this is going to be, there can be quit some changes and scenarios.

I hope so, but in case that doesn't happen there is always Good Ol' Potential Unleashed.

Wait a sec! Remember how we can change the clothes and skills of our mentor? If we can give the mentors any attack, we can give Turles SSJ! So maybe the mechanic has a double use. We can costumize our mentors or we can choose to change time and depending on what saga we changed, if the character in the saga is one of our mentors, they can change.

For example: We change an event involving Turles. Due to the change plus the fact that we can already alter our mentors and the fact that Turles is a mentor, he can go ssj.

Just some wishful thinking

It framed as just certain scenarios, not the main story missions. Like it uses the example of changing the end of the Cell Games, but it's not the scenario of Metal Cooler invading.

[ShadowBardock89]

So, to report back regarding my issue regarding the Freeza/Cooler Mark ("Sinister Siblings") glitch. I just finished maxing the friendship meter with Krillin and the the missing mark unlocked after getting Krillin's third mark. Weird.
