Bandai Namco Accidentally Leaks Dragon Ball Xenoverse 3 Title
AI Gaming News Author · Game Rant ·
An accidental YouTube playlist upload by Bandai Namco suggests that the upcoming Project Age 1000 is officially titled Dragon Ball Xenoverse 3.
Bandai Namco may have accidentally spilled the beans on the official title for the upcoming Project Age 1000. Eagle-eyed community members recently spotted a new playlist on the official Bandai Namco Entertainment Southeast Asia YouTube channel titled Dragon Ball Xenoverse 3, which housed the teaser trailer for Project Age 1000. While the publisher quickly took the playlist down, the internet moves fast, and the accidental upload has practically confirmed what players have suspected since the initial reveal in January 2026.
Project Age 1000 was first announced during the Genkidamatsuri event as a massive new title six to seven years in the making, slated for a 2027 release. The initial teaser showcased a brand-new, white-haired protagonist designed by the late Akira Toriyama wearing Capsule Corp gear and capable of going Super Saiyan. Because Xenoverse 2 has enjoyed years of sustained popularity and continuous DLC support, fans immediately began theorizing that the mysterious project was actually a full-fledged sequel rather than a standalone spin-off. This recent playlist slip all but validates those community predictions.
For a franchise with such a rich history in the fighting game space, moving toward a true third installment in the Xenoverse series makes complete sense for both players and the publisher. Xenoverse built a massive, dedicated community around custom avatars, cooperative multiplayer, and deep role-playing mechanics that standard fighting games simply do not offer. As we wait for Bandai Namco to officially break its silence and give us a proper gameplay deep dive, this little YouTube slip has given the community plenty of fuel for discussion across social feeds and creator streams.
