DRAGON BALL XENOVERSE 2 - Ultra Pack 2 (DLC)

Let me be upfront: this is DLC for a fighting-RPG that released in 2016 and has been patched, expanded, and re-released more times than I can count. DRAGON BALL XENOVERSE 2 is a third-person arena brawler with RPG progression layered on top - you build a custom character across five races, grind parallel quests for gear and skills, and brawl in an online hub called Conton City. It is not a traditional one-on-one fighter. Think more "action RPG with flashy ki blasts" than Street Fighter. If you have never touched the base game, this DLC page is not your starting point. Ultra Pack 2 specifically adds two playable characters: Android 21, the antagonist imported from DRAGON BALL FighterZ, and Majuub, the human-Majin Buu fusion from Dragon Ball GT. Both bring their own move sets and transformations into the roster, which matters in a game where skill acquisition is a core loop. Android 21's hunger-based mechanics and Majuub's reincarnation gimmick are reasonably distinct from the base roster, so if you are a lore-head who wanted these two specifically, the pack delivers on that narrow promise. The execution quality is consistent with the rest of Xenoverse 2's DLC output - nothing groundbreaking, nothing broken. From a pure competitive standpoint, Xenoverse 2 is not where you go to test reaction time or dig into frame data. Time-to-kill varies wildly depending on build synergy and skill loadout, and the online balance has historically been a mixed bag of overpowered transformation stacking. Ultra Pack 2 does not change that landscape in any dramatic way. If ranked PvP is your primary motivation, character DLC packs like this are low priority unless the specific fighters plug a gap in your play style. The game's 90 percent positive rating across nearly 57,000 Steam reviews reflects a fanbase that has been grinding and loving this thing for years, which tells you more about its long-term community health than it does about any single DLC drop. Where this pack has more obvious value is in the single-player and co-op grind. New characters mean new story missions tied to their backgrounds, new skills to farm, and new costume parts to chase. For players who are still logging hours in the Conton City hub and running parallel quests with friends, two fresh characters with distinct move pools extend that loop meaningfully. The co-op here is genuinely enjoyable in a chaotic, screen-filling way - it is not tightly balanced team play, but it scratches a specific "power fantasy with your squad" itch that is hard to replicate elsewhere. Bottom line: if you already own Xenoverse 2 and you have a soft spot for Android 21 or Majuub specifically, this pack is a reasonable content drop. If you are on the fence about the base game or wondering whether to return after a long break, start there first and see if the core loop still clicks for you before spending more. Fred, Scout Team
