Bandai Namco and developer DIMPS will mark Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2’s 10th anniversary with a free update and an in-game festival this week. The anniversary patch arrives on October 27, 2026, with the Final Festival of Universes event beginning on October 30, 2026. The game is available on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and PC.
What the update and festival include
The developers published details that focus largely on the Final Festival. Key festival features and update items announced include:
- 25x Star Coins — activities during the festival will award 25 times the standard amount of Star Coins.
- Rare rewards return — certain costumes and other rare items shown in the trailer will be available again during the festival.
- Camaraderie Characters — Fu, Trunks, and the Supreme Kai of Time will be the festival’s camaraderie characters; players can earn illustrations tied to those characters by increasing camaraderie.
- General Reception — the festival will feature Festival of Universe fights with bonuses (as described by the publisher).
- Commemorative unlock — a medal or gi given during the festival can unlock items for Dragon Ball Xenoverse 3 if players link the same Bandai Namco ID across both games.
- Pre-festival update — the October 27 patch introduces a login bonus, unspecified new costumes, and additional Gallery of Time content for Future Saga Chapter 4.
Availability and the link to Xenoverse 3
Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 is playable on Switch, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and PC. The announcement also referenced the next entry in the series: Dragon Ball Xenoverse 3 is scheduled for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, and PC in 2027. Publishers say a commemorative medal or gi from the Xenoverse 2 festival can unlock items for Xenoverse 3 when players use the same Bandai Namco ID for both titles.
| item | date / platform |
|---|---|
| 10th anniversary patch | October 27, 2026 |
| Final Festival of Universes | October 30, 2026 |
| Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 platforms | Switch, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, PC |

What it means for players in the Philippines and Southeast Asia
The timing and platform list mean players in the Philippines who still play Xenoverse 2 on any supported system will be able to join the festivities without needing new hardware. The cross-title unlock — a commemorative medal or gi that can open items in Xenoverse 3 when accounts are linked via the same Bandai Namco ID — may be of particular interest to players planning to move to the next game when it launches in 2027.
Bandai Namco and DIMPS have released a trailer covering the Final Festival’s rewards and returning items; the studios’ published notes also detail the login bonus and Future Saga Chapter 4 Gallery of Time content arriving with the October 27 patch. The announcement lists the festival’s camaraderie characters as Fu, Trunks, and the Supreme Kai of Time, and confirms that Festival of Universe fights will run with bonuses during the event.
Players should check their platforms and Bandai Namco account settings ahead of the update if they want to ensure their Bandai Namco ID is ready for the cross-game unlock when Xenoverse 3 launches on PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC in 2027.
