News leaked out from V Jump earlier today that Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 launches for Switch in Japan this fall. Courtesy of Gematsu, we have the following overview in full detail:

New Systems

  • Ad-Hoc Co-Op Play – A first for the Dragon Ball Xenoverse series, using ad-hoc correspondence, you can play with up to six nearby players.
  • Ultimate Techniques with the Motion Sensor – For example, by using the Joy-Cons with both hands, you can trigger a “Kamehameha.”
  • Two-Player Joy-Con Battles – Battle against a friend on the same Switch using the two Joy-Con controllers.

Bonuses

  • Limited Time Bonus – Experience the “Time Patrol” main story from the first Dragon Ball Xenoverse.
  • For Early Buyers – A code to unlock the characters from the main story early. By using this code, you will have access to more than 70 characters from the start.

The latest issue of V-Jump finally shares an update on the Switch version of Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2. According to the magazine, it’ll be out this fall in Japan (and in the west as well, we’d assume).

Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 will have six-person ad-hoc play, two-player battles using the Joy-Con controllers, and the ability to use Kamehameha through the motion sensor on Switch. Those who buy the game will also be provided with a code to unlock all playable characters from the main story of the previous game early.

On Switch, it’s possible to play two-player co-op with the split Joy-Con setup. The game’s resolution has been increased to 1080p, and the frame rate has been raised as well (likely to 60 frames per second).

Today’s announcement also contains one other general tidbit. The original One Piece: Unlimited World Red has now shipped over one million units.

Following the Nintendo Switch Presentation in January, Bandai Namco announced three games for Switch. These included new entries in the Tales of and Taiko Drum Master franchises as well as Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2.

We haven’t heard about any of these titles since they were originally mentioned in January. However, in its latest financial report, all three surfaced once again. Additionally, while not absolutely confirmed, it seems as though they’re all planned for the coming fiscal year.

It’s unclear which Tales of and Taiko Drum Master games Switch will be receiving. Hopefully it won’t be too long until Bandai Namco provides official details.
