    Two points deducted from the original 91% for the paid DLC and the miniscule downgrade in graphics, but five added for Xenoverse story missions and the portability the Switch offers.

    An excellent port that gets even bigger on Nintendo's hybrid system because of its new controls.

    While not a huge fan of Dragon Ball in general, I can say that I’m a fan of Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 on the Switch. It does have its flaws. Namely with the camera and some of the training. Plus the combat can get repetitive as you mash out the same combos, at least in the early going. But I can definitely say that I found a Dragon Ball game that I can enjoy coming back to from time to time.

    Overall, Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 for Nintendo Switch is a fun game which works well when you get over the steep learning curve of fighting the game’s controls. Playing through the entirety of the DBZ story is a blast, and while some design flaws persisted to the port to the Switch, the game is still worth a play if you are a fan of the series.

    Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 was an entertaining but flawed game when it was released last year and it remains such on Nintendo Switch. If anything, this port feels like the worst version to pick up, with numerous graphical sacrifices and severe frame rate issues in the hub city whilst playing on the handheld mode. It does include the main story quests from the first game so newcomers won’t miss out on anything (even though the sequel’s story is similar), but the newly-added motion controls, while a novel idea, are far from the ideal way to play the game. The only appealing aspect for someone who has already enjoyed Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 is that this version allows you to play it on the go, but even then it’s a messy port. For those new to the series, this is a solid entry point, but don’t expect it to set your world on fire.

    A great port for the nintendo switch. Looks amazing both portable and docked. The solo/single player game is really addictive and will keepA great port for the nintendo switch. Looks amazing both portable and docked. The solo/single player game is really addictive and will keep you occupied for many hours. Multiplayer can be a bit weird since there is no split-screen. Also, you cannot remove the time limit which restrains you to 3-minute fights, which is a very small amount of time for fights. Even though it's not as good as Dragon Ball Budokai Tenkaichi is, it's a game that I would recommend for Dragon Ball fans mainly for the great single player experience it offers.… Expand

Ahora personalmente siento amor y odio por este juego por lo frustrante que se siente cuando pierdes, no es como Fighters en el cual, si mueres sabes que fue por un error tuyo, aquí pareciera que las mecánicas siempre están en tu contra. Pero si omites eso y te centras en el universo expandido de Dragon Ball y en sus caracteristicas RPG, facilmente te quedaras pegado por horas tratando de sacar todos los Rangos Z que puedas y coleccionando ataques, ropas, accesorios, etc. Es un juego que si lo ves en oferta no deberías dudar de comprar.… Expand

    Cet énième jeu tiré du manga idiot (sans compter tous les animes -idiots- qui sont sortis et con-tinuent de sortir) se révèle très vite aussiCet énième jeu tiré du manga idiot (sans compter tous les animes -idiots- qui sont sortis et con-tinuent de sortir) se révèle très vite aussi idiot que tout le reste de la licence Dragonball, d’autant plus que ce Xenomachin numéro 2 vise avant tout le multikévins avant tout… même si une sorte de campagne solo est aussi proposée.

    Le jeu ne cesse de charger sans arrêt pour un oui ou pour un non et la présentation générale est confuse, de même que l’interface mal faite et peu intuitive ; les combats impliquent surtout des combos (des cons beaux ?) infaisables et grotesques, aussi grotesques que tous ces personnages sortis d’une mauvaise fête foraine de très mauvais goût.

    De ce que j’ai tenté de jouer sur la Switch, ce n’est pas si vilain et ça semble tenir ses 30 im/s à peu près… au prix d’une résolution faiblarde et d’un anti-crénelage insuffisant. L’autre bon point si je puis dire, ou un autre point du moins un minimum correct, concerne la musique qu’on peut couper ! Dieu merci ! elle est en effet si souvent horrible et désagréable qu’elle rendrait fou n’importe qui.

    Enfin bon, de toute façon, ce jeu de baston est super con et super débile et ne présente par con-séquent aucune espèce du moindre intérêt que l’on pourrait lui trouver, même en cherchant au microscope électronique.    … Expand
