Dragon Ball: Xenoverse 2

Dragon Ball: Xenoverse 2 for PC, PS4 and etc. is a 3D fighting game set in the Dragon Ball universe, created in 1989 by Akira Toriyama. The brand started out as a manga series, which was soon adapted into an anime series, as well as movies and games. Dragon Ball: Xenoverse 2 was produced by Bandai Namco and Dimps, a studio located in Osaka, which also created the previous instalment in the series. The best thing about the game is the fact that it was designed for new generation consoles (Xbox One and PlayStation 4), which resulted in new gameplay elements and much better visuals

Plot

The gameplay focuses on battles taking place in 3D areas, during which you use attacks and powers derived from the original manga and anime series. You can also once again explore the large hub city, where you can choose quests to complete and battles to take part in.

Technical aspects

The game features the original anime voice actors and the cel-shading technology, which gives the production a distinct comic-book-like style.
