Thanks to Heroes it's not out of the realm of possibilities like it was before especially that the game is made by the same people.

It's not their fourth form. It's a completely different Heroes character. The one being majorly advertised is Froze. That one is Rezok.

Hmm ... the 3d model doesn't appear to be wearing that 'jacket' from heroes though ... looks more like Cooler's 4th bone plating. He also seems to be lacking Rezok's white chin. Of course, the blurriness and blue hue do screw things up.

Regardless of if they change little traits here or there, it's "him" (as much as can be, since he's an avatar in Heroes too). You can see the jacket in a later part of the video during the rest of the avatar montage though.

Words cannot describe; it feels so real, the reality, it's as if DBZ games for the past 7 years never sucked. It's all been forgotten in a flash; comrades, DBZ games are good again. Do you guys know what this means?! The bar has been set, and when Bandai Namco see how well this sells, they will know to sustain the quality as a matter of principle. This means no more mediocrity, no more Spike. This means Dimps, Dimps and some more Dimps. If not Dimps it means another A-grade well-reputed developer. The bar has been set, the ball has started rolling and there hasn't been a better time or company to do so. Super Saiyajin Luffy, I think it's safe to say, we made it bruh!!! :wink:


If I have to be honest, I actually kind of miss the original story. I haven't purchased or played a DBZ game in years, and a good one at that, I actually miss that done-to-death story line, and not being at all surprised by the events (I guess it's a nostalgia thing) :lol: I wouldn't ask for it though unless I can be assured it can be done as authentically as possible, though I've never played Budokai 1 something akin to what Dimps was able to produce there covering as much as possible would be sweet. I haven't really been following DB games much the past couple of years, but I think the original story is long overdue. Maybe if the next game is able to get perhaps at least 2 years of development, retaining Xenoverses combat, they could really, finally do it justice. The future really does look bright.

Btw, has the extended trailer been officially released yet? I haven't watched it yet, wanted to wait till I can see it at best quality, rather than via a spectators camera.

This is all so cool! I am missing one thing that was in Online tough.
Where is Dragon Ball if we are changing the History?? There is Bardock and then we skip directly for Z?

That will be my trouble with the story and game.

The ps2 games sold like crazy yet look what happened with the ps3 games and with what they're doing with this game i don't know what else is left for a sequel or any other game for that matter.

This means no more mediocrity, no more Spike.This means Dimps, Dimps and some more Dimps,If not Dimps it means another A-grade well-reputed developer.

As of now the only other option is Artdink and we all know how that turned out.
Could it be possible that Bandai aren't gonna make anymore games and have this be like an mmo where they just support it after release instead of sequels and other games ? Cause the amount of content in this game makes it impossible to do more games.

I managed to get the beta started and create a character, but it froze. Probably because I'm no where near Japan. If anyone finds me online, I'm "Turles Jr." Wearing Purple and black.
I am a freelance animator, check out my thangs. ART!

Some French members have already started posting pictures of what their character looks like in the beta.
I hope members here will also show us what they chose to look like in the Dragon Wolrd (even though they might create a totally different character in the final game).

It would be cool to be able to say "oh, so this is what [insert member name here] looks like in the Dragon Ball universe".

In the beta you can only create Saiyans/Namekian.

When the final game comes out, we should make a collab image of all the members characters.

Also...XENOVERSE COMING TO PC! I'll probably buy it for both PS3 for easier local multiplayer (as I can just take the console/game to a friend's house) and PC for my main playtrough.

As long as those have many options to customize (clothes, hairstyle, colors...), it's still enough for people to show what they choose to be and look like in that universe.
Of course, we'll have more variety once the full game is released thanks to all the additionnal races, but Saiyans/Nameks are still enough for members to show their DB personnality in the meantime. 8)

IF, as I said, there are enough options to customize for those two races right now (there seem to be a lot judging by the video you posted).

We could customize the head parts i.e. face and clothing colours (I made a Namekian). That's it, unless I missed something major.
Problem is, nobody can play the game....

Constant freezing/lock-up upon entering the game lobby. The PS3 is completely unresponsive but the background music keeps playing. Have to do a hard reset of the console. No progress being made :(.
