Despite being nearly six years after its original release,Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2is still being supported to this day by Dimps and Bandai Namco. The amount of post-launch support the game has received over the years is staggering, adding plenty of DLC Characters to the game. The last few additions to the game have been primarily focused around the last animated adaptation,Dragon Ball Super, adding characters like Jiren, Kale, andUltra Instinct -Sign- Gokuas playable characters to its roster.
The support forDragon Ball Xenoverse 2doesn’t seem to be stopping any time soon either, as the developers have announced its next packs of DLC will be focused on the latest theatrical film,Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero. This film was released earlier this year, with positive fan and critical reception thanks to its nostalgic call-backs, along with focusing on Piccolo and Gohan, with many commenting on it being a breath of fresh air. This DLC Pack will contain playable characters based on the film, with the first of these already revealed, Gamma 2.

This trailer features a recreation of a scene from the film, where one ofSuper Hero’s antagonists Gamma 2attacks Piccolo with energy blasts, with the Namekian being able to recognize the Red Ribbon Army’s logo. Gamma 2’s gameplay focuses on big and flashy attacks, with emphasis on being a Super Hero like in his debut film. There’s one attack where he rushes towards his foe, with a big winding punch, along with being able to fire off energy blasts.
Gamma 2 can also do a pose, where if an enemy attacks, the attack will be countered instantly. Like inDragon Ball Super: Super Hero, some of Gamma 2’s moves also feature the same Manga-esque sound effect holograms and explosions after he attacks. Gamma will be a part of the first DLC Pack, which will feature two additional characters. This pack will be released this fall, while the second DLC pack has an undetermined date at this time.
The end of this trailer teases the addition of Gamma 1, who is likely to be the second DLC Character of this pack. With these two packs being based onDragon Ball Super: Super Hero, fans are expecting the additions ofPiccolo and Gohan’s newest transformationsfrom the movie to be included. Others are bewildered thatXenoverse 2is still getting content five years after release, but are still excited to see the characters from the film be added regardless.
Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2is available now on PC, PS4, Switch, and Xbox One.
