"Dragon Ball XENOVERSE 2" Official Discussion Thread

Fukkin' cool!

Level cap from 99-120. But you can't use Dragonballs to wish for levels passed 99. So you're forced to either pay 200+TP medals per level or grind to get to 120. Time to bring back out 40ton Weights if you wanna get there even marginally faster.

[Scsigs]

Ok, so a level cap increase to 120 is interesting. (Anyone wanna grind levels on the Xbox version with me? We can just do expert missions & PQs to grind, some. I still need to do). Glad they caught up to Final Fantasy XV.
Ultra Instinct is interesting.
A 9th gen port is interesting. Since the game never got an upgrade patch for higher resolutions on Xbox One X or PS4 Pro, this is sorely needed because the anti-aliasing in the game kinda sucks on consoles & I assume the max resolution is 1080p.
Future DLC with Fu looks interesting for the story implications.

I like everyone else would rather be getting a Xenoverse 3, but this looks interesting. I still need to get the Beast Mode transformation as well, so I'll be playing more soon.

In 2 years, this game will be 10 years old. I know there are probably other games with longer lifespans that still release new DLCs, but don't you guys think it's time to stop and maybe consider a future sequel for this?

3, actually.

Can't they just let this game die?

Apparently not.

[Grimlock]

Does anyone know a great Super Soul for stamina recovery? I'm using the Zarbon one, but I'd like some opinions.

Ideally, I'm looking for a Super Soul similar to the one Gogeta (Dragon Ball Super) uses. It recovers a lot of Ki just by beating the opponent, I barely use "Maximum Charge" anymore due to it. I'd like to know if anyone knows a similar one but related to stamina.

[Zelvin]

I'm sick and tired of this Gohan raid. Not because it's difficult. Because I can't even participate in it. Whether I'm hosting it or not, I always get disconnected and thrown right back to Conton City. I've maybe been able to get in twice in the last three days. There's always a connection problem and it's not with me. It makes me really wish we could just run it with AI partners like everything else if these "Live Services" continue to fail at serving the Players.

[Kanassa]

The AI suddenly learning to do stamina breaks and limit bursts was a genuine jump scare. If they start transforming outside of scripted events, I'm fucked.

The ally AI seems to have gotten slightly better too, but it's kinda more 50/50 on if they do something smart.

The real question is: it still fun to play XENOVERSE 2 nowadays?

[The S]

I'm very surprised nothing for this game was announced yesterday, at least that I saw.

They're working on the 9th gen port, so I'm not surprised.

[MCDaveG]

I was checking after not having played the game since the last DLC, if there is something new and to my surprise, nothing.
I believe they will focus on the brand new Sparking! from now on, with Kakarot getting it's last DLC and XV2 is probably done?

Thank god It was fun while it lasted and IMHO the game overstayed it's welcome, but on the other hand, cool that Bandai did support such a game for as long as they did.

What do you mean by 9th gen? I tried to google it but that didn't help.

[Cold Skin]

^ I don't know if you're looking for what "9th gen" mean in itself or if you mean you haven't found any proof that it's the case with Xenoverse 2, but I'll answer the first one just in case: 9th gen is the PS5 and XboxSeries X/S.

It might be clearer to call it "current gen", though people also use frequently "next gen" even if it's technically not the next one to come but the current one.

So based on what he says - and much like Fighterz - Xenoverse 2 would have a PS5 version rather than just running the PS4 Pro version (so that it can typically involve higher resolutions, smoother framerate, extra visual effects, better draw distance, faster loading times, etc...). It should run with higher specs.

Xbox Series X/S & PS5. They're the 9th generation of consoles.

[TobyS]

I'm a bit outta the loop but if they bring a version for new consoles do you think we can xfer save data?

[Cold Skin]

^ Probably, since it was the case when Kakarot got a PS5/Series X version.

I don't know if anyone here was expecting much besides a standard improvement to the graphic like: increased resolution & maybe a 120FPS option, added detail to the assets, probably faster loading times, & my hope: anti-aliasing being turned on, but this just seems to be a standard port with the minimum done to spruce things up for the new consoles.
