Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 has revealed a big free update that will be available soon. Although it first released in 2016, Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 still gets updates to this day.

Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 is a different experience from other Dragon Ball Z games. Instead of controlling a Z Warrior, the player creates their own fighter to take on the role of a Time Patroller. The player must then choose a master, train, and fight powerful enemies to save history. Featuring several multiplayer modes, impressive customization options, and events, Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 regularly adds new fighters, skills, and scenarios to keep things fresh.

Both Dragon Ball FighterZ and Xenoverse 2 manage to cross another impressive milestone, with both games celebrating this accomplishment.

Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 has revealed a big free update arriving on Thursday, October 12. Celebrating the game's seventh year of availability, it will add the new 3v3 Cross Versus mode and the Festival of Universes, an event with new rewards and new lobbies. The update includes the Welcome Campaign, which will run from October 12 to 19. During this period, Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 players can get login bonuses and try out a selection of DLC characters at no cost. The list includes names like Rose Goku Black, Goku (Ultra Instinct), and SSGSS Vegito, some of the strongest characters in Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2. The update will add a new Awoken Skill called Ultra Instinct, avatar level cap unlock, and several feature improvements.

As well as revealing the new free update, the Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 roadmap confirmed that the game is getting even more content next year. Although no date has yet been set, Xenoverse 2 will add new playable characters, an additional scenario, and other undisclosed content. It's worth remembering that this year Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 added Gohan (Beast) as part of Hero of Justice Pack 2, the game's most recent DLC. Bandai Namco also revealed that Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 is coming to PS5 and Xbox Series X/S next year, but didn't give an exact date. The roadmap ends by teasing more announcements in the future.

Thanks to Xenoverse 2's success there's no telling when, or even if, Dragon Ball Xenoverse 3 will happen. While fans still don't have the answer to that question, Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 celebrates another anniversary with the promise of more exciting announcements.

Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 is now available to play on PC, PS4, Switch, and Xbox One with PS5 and Xbox Series X versions in development.
