Bandai Namco is still supporting its 2016 title Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 with regular content updates. The latest announcement is the reveal of a new (but familiar) DLC character.
After asking players what new warrior they would like to see added, the next warrior has been officially confirmed as Ultra Instinct -Sign- Goku from the Dragon Ball Super series. He'll be added to the game as DLC at some point this summer, and to go with it is a new trailer:
Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 is a hit game currently available on PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, Windows, and Stadia. New DLC for the game is set to go live this summer, and you can watch a new trailer for it right now to start getting hyped!
In the new DLC, various content selected by players via the Conton City Vote will be added to the game! The Conton City Vote was held previously to decide which new warrior to bring into the game's setting, the vast polis of Conton City.

From what I understand, Ultra Instinct Goku is already in the game, so that header isn't entirely correct.
This Sign variant is apparently a less powerful and less stable variant in which Goku keeps his original hair colour.
That said... that's a lot of Goku in this game.
Not to mention it's winner from that Vote, but at least it has new Skills to make it worth it like other Characters re-skins are.
Ultra Instinct Sign. Nice. An interesting form. Big fan of the DB franchise.
probably the worst outcome from the vote but the most predictable, here's hoping they shadowdrop some of the other, more interesting characters in with his dlc
I don’t even know what to say to this, it’s just pre UI Goku.
I get the series is meant to have all these characters, and I haven’t played in a wile, but I always will prefer quality over quantity.
And at this point they just throw in the slightest difference in a character in make it paid dlc. And I know it’s voted for, but the fact that it was an option, of course it would win. Im actually really surprised despo isn’t in the game by now with all the dlc fighters they have, so just who have they been adding? The fourth Kefla? (Jk) This is an opinion and like I said I haven’t played in a good wile, so for all I know all the dlc characters are really well designed.
@Xiovanni, ew, why?
I can understand that more Goku is pretty boring, but aside from the main antagonists like Hit & Jiren, there's no appeal to most of the new characters added to Super's tournament arcs, especially the "tournament of power" where they had to come up with so many characters they just kinda threw them together. The Trio of Danger feels like random OC furries at worst, or mooks that would have been one shot during the tournament prelims (back in the OG Dragon Ball) at best, and none of the other new tournament characters fare much better.
Will cumber be added?
Alright, so I've never played a dragon ball game, but might consider getting this one because it's on offer in the eshop for $10. Is this a good deal?
As I said it's Vote winner, YouTubers and my friends Voted for Dyspo or Bergamo, I voted for Dyspo myself, but all YouTubers and my friends mentioned that there is 99+% chance that in the end Goku re-skin will win, so blame those who voted for it instead voting for other 4 choices from that Vote.
@RR529
I feel like Super’s existence is so they have more material for games and that’s why it’s full of characters that fill niches and a whole roster of jobbers, the way power scaling is handled also is a benefit to games
@kirbysupremacy If you won’t really care for the dlc, then yeah it’s more then worth the price! But you do have to like db games, so it might not click with you.
I really wanted the Wolf or the Flash/Rabbit tho
This game came out in 2016, how is it still being supported?
@Axecon Because people continue to toss money at every slight variation "character" they crank out as DLC. So they might as well add another hundred.
@SteamEngenius Kinda sad. Especially considering there are like 4 newer DBZ games out that are no longer supported
@Axecon the game reached a similar situation Smash did, there was no point in releasing a Xenoverse 3 when they could just build upon the foundation, the existing second one which is not necessarily a bad thing. It's better than buying Revisions like in the good ol' days of street fighters where you had to buy the game all over again to see the new stuff, now i guess it's just too big to justify migrating everything to a new one. To make a Xenoverse 3 they would have to cut content out. The game will die eventually it won't last forever but i've never seen a dragon ball game lasting this long, i guess it deserves it's praises for that at least.
@icomma even over Bergamo as well, but true Dragon Ball fans and people who knows how people minds works knew that in the end most votes will go for that re-skin due multiple factors. First factor is nostalgic and main protagonist, second factor is voting system and it was first option in that system.
How many versions of Goku are there for Hylia’s sake. This is part of the reason I can’t take Dragonball seriously.
Was that Doom music?
Imo the far better design compared to the full UI version.
