About Dragon Ball: Xenoverse

Dragon Ball: Xenoverse is a fighting and role-playing game released on February 5, 2015, for PlayStation 3, PS4, PC, Xbox 360, and Xbox One. Developed by Dimps and published by Bandai Namco Entertainment, it is the first entry in the Xenoverse series and belongs to the Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z franchises. The game is rated T by the ESRB and PEGI 12.

Players create their own character and move through the game in a side view perspective, with battles that take place in full 3D. Fighters can roam large areas, and combat can happen on the ground, in the air, or underwater. The game supports single player, multiplayer, and co-operative play, so the action can be shared with others.

The story centers on the player's custom fighter and a set of time-related events within the Dragon Ball world. Much of the game is set on a version of Earth from that universe, along with a few other locations. Characters speak during battle, and their expressions change when they land or take hits.
