The latest update for Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 introduces a nostalgic costume inspired by Akira Toriyama's original manga cover art.
More than two years after the passing of Akira Toriyama, the creator of Dragon Ball, his influence continues to shape the franchise. In a recent development, the game Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 has added a special tribute in its final update: Goku's Old Gi.
This costume replicates the outfit worn by Goku on the cover of the final manga volume, where he bid farewell with the caption 'Thank you! Good bye!!
'. The in-game version adapts the classic design with a distinct pair of shoes, staying true to the original artwork. The outfit is available for purchase in the STP medal festival shop, though it comes at a high cost-300 medals per piece-making it a significant investment for players. Alongside this tribute, a new Angel Set has been introduced, granting characters wings and a halo.
The release of this content marks a poignant moment for Xenoverse 2 as it approaches its 10th anniversary in October. With the conclusion of its DLC and free updates, the game is paving the way for the anticipated Dragon Ball Xenoverse 3, slated for 2027. Over its nearly decade-long lifespan, Xenoverse 2 has cultivated a dedicated community, setting a high bar for its successor.
Honoring Toriyama's legacy remains a profound challenge, yet the Dragon Ball gaming series has consistently strived to uphold it. This final update serves both as a nostalgic nod to the manga's conclusion and as a reminder of the enduring impact of Toriyama's work on the gaming adaptations of his beloved series
