DRAGONBALL : XENOVERSE


Dragon Ball Xenoverse (officially abbreviated as Dragon Ball XV) is an upcoming video game based on the Dragon Ball media franchise.It will be released on PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360, Xbox One, and Microsoft Windows. Xenoverse will also be the first Dragon Ball game released on some eighth generation consoles as well as PC
Battles are set in full 3D destructible environments. Fighters can traverse the levels free-roaming in very large spaces and can be fighting on a platform, go in the air, and fight underwater. They run when on the ground, and swim while underwater. Xenoverse has dialogue while fights go on, and fighters show facial expressions when they strike an opponent or take damage. The players have some freedom to explore the planet Earth as it exists in the Dragon Ball universe along with a handful of other locations, including a mysterious new city which is the point of origin for the game's new character.

The game's new character is confirmed to be a player created character. With the character customization, players will now be able to customize their character's race, gender, head, build, and clothing. Player's custom characters for the Story Mode can be five race types: Saiyan, Earthling, Majin, Namekian and Frieza's race. Players will be able to visit the futuristic Tokitoki City, meet up with other players and take on cooperative, time-traveling missions.
The PS4 and Xbox One versions of Dragon Ball: Xenoverse also include unique gameplay features proper to this generation of consoles. Players can also become apprentices of the original Dragon Ball anime characters to equip over 200 special moves and 450 costumes items.


Unlike the previous games of the series that usually follow the original Dragon Ball canon, "Xenoverse" will feature an entire new story, including a player created character  not seen anywhere else in the franchise. The 2014 V-Jump #7, which announces the game, draws attention to a mysterious figure watching the first battle between Goku and Vegeta from the shadows. With red hair, a scouter, and the Capsule Corporation logo on his sleeve, this character's identity was not clear. However after some time it was revealed that this mysterious warrior is in fact a created character thus confirming character creation for Dragonball Xenoverse. Another returning character is Time Patrol Trunks from Dragon Ball Online, who makes a full playable appearance. Two new areas are also showcased: a completely new Hyperbolic Time Chamber like area named the Time Storage Vault, and the other being a high-tech city with what appears to be a Time Machine landed on it. The story is revealed to be about mysterious forces manipulating history, with the player being tasked with restoring the timeline.
