'Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2' News: Hero Colosseum Mode, Two Extra DLC Packs Coming This Autumn
New content for RPG "Dragon Ball Xenoverse" is coming to the game before the year ends. Bandai Namco confirmed the news on Friday, revealing that the game would get the new Hero Colosseum game mode for free this coming autumn.
According to the game developer, the additional content will introduce a completely new game mode — a story mode with a tactical figuring battle, where players can use the capsule toy versions of their favorite "Dragon Ball" characters when in strategic board game-like scenarios.
Bandai Namco released a new trailer for the new mode, showing that the Hero Colosseum will have its own story mode that is separate from the game itself. The game developer also announced that joining the new content are two extra downloadable content (DLC) packs for the Hero Colosseum mode, the Extra Pack 1, and Extra Pack 2 paid DLCs. These extra DLCs will reportedly introduce new characters and gameplay features.
