Discover the main mechanics of DRAGON BALL XENOVERSE 3

Get a deeper look at the core mechanics of DRAGON BALL XENOVERSE 3 in a brand-new trailer following a mission undertaken by a rookie member of the Great Saiya Squad. Showcasing the game's key combat systems, the video highlights the concept of "connection", the central theme woven throughout the entire gameplay experience.

Thanks to this mechanic, players can forge powerful bonds with the legendary heroes who once protected Earth and shape their own unique fighter. By equipping iconic attacks, skills, and fighting styles, they can customise their character to reflect their favorite DRAGON BALL heroes. Players can even call upon these warriors—or their souls—to provide direct support in battle, creating a deeper and more personal connection to the DRAGON BALL universe.

DRAGON BALL XENOVERSE 3 lets players team up in squads of up to four and take on a variety of missions, from intense one-on-one battles to large-scale fights against multiple opponents. During the mission showcased in the trailer, viewers are introduced to the depth of the combat system and the strategic use of skills and special attacks. Players can exploit openings by depleting an opponent's Ki, creating opportunities to unleash devastating Critical Strikes.

Expanding their arsenal even further, they can activate Soul Assist, calling upon someone who protected Earth before and unleash one of their signature techniques in support. The ultimate expression of this bond comes through Soul Change, a powerful ability that allows players to temporarily incarnate a legendary DRAGON BALL hero and harness their strength firsthand. Alternatively, players can awaken their own potential through Awakening, unlocking race-specific transformations such as the iconic Super Saiyan form.

Additional races and further details about their unique abilities and playstyles will be revealed at a later date.
