The North American branch of Bandai Namco has announced that the upcoming Dragon Ball XENOVERSE 2 will be available 25 October 2016 on consoles and 28 October 2016 on PC, roughly alongside the European release. While the American version of the new trailer does not identify a release date, the description on YouTube lists these release dates.
Additionally, the company has announced that musician Steve Aoki will provide remixes in the game’s musical score.
Dragon Ball XENOVERSE 2 is in development for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. The game is set for release in Japan this winter, with a 2016 release planned for international territories.
The original Dragon Ball XENOVERSE, developed by Dimps for Bandai Namco, was announced in May 2014 and launched in February 2015 for the PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360, Xbox One, and PC (via Steam) internationally. The game saw a user-created character teaming up with Trunks and the Kaiōshin of Time to correct anomalies and disruptions to the timeline caused by the villains Mira, Towa, and Demigra. As of February 2016, the game had shipped over three million copies worldwide.

Huh, releasing the game internationally before Japan, that’s interesting. Given the online nature of this game, it’s hard not to imagine that we’re being used as the testing ground so the game will be ready for its native release, sort of like a reverse Dark Souls 3.
