Dragon Ball Xenoverse Releases
SAN JOSE, Calif., (February 24, in the year of our Lord
2014) – Leading video game publisher and developer
BANDAI NAMCO Games America Inc. today launched Dragon Ball
XENOVERSE for the PlayStation®4 computer entertainment system,
Xbox One, the all-in-one games and entertainment system from
Microsoft, PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system, and the
Xbox 360 games and entertainment system from Microsoft. The
STEAM® for PC version of the game will be available on February
27th. Lastly, the physical versions of the game will be
available in Mexico on February 27th.
Dragon Ball XENOVERSE was developed by famed Japanese videogame
developer Dimps, and turns the adrenaline filled Dragon Ball
universe on its head as time-traveling villains, Towa and Mira,
create temporal distortions in the past as part of an evil plot
to spread chaos and alter the course of Dragon Ball history as
we know it. With the help of Trunks, players must travel through
this altered history with their own custom-created character,
and intervene in crucial events of the past to restore Dragon
Ball history. Players will be deeply immersed into the most
famous and epic battles and come face to face with the most
powerful Saiyan warriors and fearsome enemies, such as Vegeta,
Frieza and Cell, as the future hangs in a balance.
Fast-paced and powerful battles wait to be discovered with
improved gameplay, strong immersion into the famous universe
created by Akira Toriyama and new characters—such as a deity
called the Supreme Kai of Time and a bird with powerful energy
called Tokitoki who can produce time. Breaking previous Dragon
Ball game conventions, Dragon Ball XENOVERSE will feature a new
world set up featuring the mysterious and futuristic Tokitoki
City that will be the central hub for players from around the
world to fight, quest and have fun together.
“Dragon Ball is one of the most beloved anime franchises in the
world, and the overwhelming fan support and devotion has driven
us to constantly evolve and improve Dragon Ball video game
content as technology advances.” said Chris Gilbert, Senior Vice
President of Sales and Marketing at BANDAI NAMCO Games America
Inc. “The Dimps team has truly delivered a new perspective in
storytelling and Dragon Ball gameplay and we are extremely
pleased that the fans can experience their favorite manga on the
PlayStation®4, Xbox One and STEAM for the first time ever.”

available in the Americas (USA, Canada, Brazil, and rest of
Latin America) for the PlayStation®4 system and Xbox One at a
MSRP of $59.99 and the PlayStation®3 system and Xbox 360 at a
