Here’s the full roundup of tidbits:

Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 Future Saga DLC

Bandai Namco today revealed the future of Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2, which will include brand new Future Saga DLC.

The DLC is a continuation from “Villainous Mode” and “Supervillain”. Fu is back to cause more antics as part of the latest story chapter. Future Saga Chapter 1 will include an additional scenario, Goku Black (Super Saiyan Rose, Ultra Supervillain), Vegeta (Super Saiyan God, Ultra Supervillain), and another character plus other unspecified content.

Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door ROM leak

Not long before it’s official launch, there’s been a ROM leak for the new Switch version of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door.

It’s never a good thing for Nintendo when this happens, but it’s perhaps not quite as significant as previous leaks. After all, we’re talking about a game that has technically been around for twenty years. Remember that Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door originally launched for the GameCube in 2004. It’s still a spoiler-heavy game though, so keep that in mind while being online.

With the release of Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance drawing ever closer, another Daily Demon video has been released by Atlus to showcase one of the demons that will be in the game. Volume 42 of the series focuses on Cironnup.

Smash Bros Ultimate win rates

In his latest video on YouTube, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate director Masahiro Sakurai provided insight into the game’s win rates.

Many fans have certain opinions about which characters are best to play as. You can probably find plenty of tier lists online with some fighters coming out more favorably. However, win rates in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate are probably closer than you’d think.

Nintendo typically shares launch trailers on release date, but we’ve got a bit of an early one for Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. The video comes ahead of the remake’s debut later in the week.
