AI Gaming News Author · Game Rant ·
Bandai Namco revealed nearly seven minutes of gameplay for Dragon Ball Xenoverse 3, introducing the default white-haired Saiyan protagonist, J-Age, and highlighting new combat mechanics like Soul Assist and Soul Switch.
Bandai Namco has given the community its first substantial look at Dragon Ball Xenoverse 3, dropping a nearly seven-minute gameplay showcase that details what to expect from the next major action RPG in the franchise. Set in futuristic West City during AGE 1000, the upcoming title places players into the ranks of the Great Saiyan Squad. While the series is known for letting players build custom avatars from scratch, the recent presentation put the spotlight on the default white-haired Saiyan protagonist named J-Age, alongside a default Earthling option.
Combat builds on the foundation of previous entries while introducing new mechanics designed for team synergy. The gameplay walkthrough featured 3D arena exploration and fast-paced brawls, showcasing systems like Soul Assist and Soul Switch. Soul Assist lets players call on classic characters like Vegeta and Future Trunks for backup, while Soul Switch takes it a step further by allowing players to transform into and directly control these iconic fighters mid-battle. These abilities prove essential during a tense climax against Broly at the end of the mission sequence.
As the broader Dragon Ball universe prepares for shifts in its narrative focus, Xenoverse 3 leans heavily into the collaborative action-RPG gameplay that fans expect, while introducing fresh character designs originally crafted by the late Akira Toriyama. For long-time players and newcomers who treat these massive anime universes as ongoing social hubs, the upcoming release is shaping up to be a major stop on the calendar.
