Bandai Namco has revealed a 10th anniversary update for Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 as fans await the fighting game series' third installment.

Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 Gets Surprise 10th Anniversary Update This Week

Bandai Namco has announced a surprise 10th anniversary update for Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2, set to arrive within days of the game's initial release on October 25, 2016. The update will be split into two parts, with the first taking effect October 27 and the second October 30.

The first update features login bonus rewards, special costumes, and an update for the Future Saga Chapter 4 DLC's Gallery of Time. The final event, dubbed the Final Festival of Universes, will commence on Friday, offering a variety of hard-to-find items, as well as unlocks for Dragon Ball Xenoverse 3 rewards. During the festival, players can strengthen their bonds with Trunks, The Supreme Kai of Time, or Fu, unlocking special illustrations and earning 25 times more Star Coins than usual.

10 years have passed since Bandai Namco launched Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2, and the Final Festival of Universes appears to be the publisher's way of bidding farewell to the sequel, considering the imminent release of Dragon Ball Xenoverse 3. The sequel is set to transport fans into the West City timeline of Age 1000. Unfortunately, Dragon Ball Xenoverse 3's release date has been pushed back to 2028, leaving fans eagerly awaiting hands-on gameplay.

The 10-year anniversary festivities should provide some relief for the impatient fans, until the final release of Dragon Ball Xenoverse 3.
