A sequel to the popular Dragon Ball Xenoverse fighting game seems like an inevitability, but more than a year after the first game’s release there has been no word as to when or if Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 will happen.
However, it took one comment from Goku voice actor Sean Schemmel at Bristol Comic-Con in England to spark rumors and fan demand for the next Dragon Ball game.
While fielding questions at a panel, Schemmel was asked if he heard anything about Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2, which the veteran voice actor answered.
“I do think there is going to be…I can’t confirm it yet but Chris (Sabat, the producer of the Dragon Ball Z dub) called me and said there’s gonna be a game coming out, I’m thinking there’s going to be some DLC or maybe another Xenoverse game I wouldn’t be surprised. Xenoverse was so successful the publishing company would be stupid not to make another one just for the sake of the money.”

But if you want to hear just the Dragon Ball Xenoverse stuff, start at 15:30.
Dragon Ball Xenoverse was published by Bandai Namco and released back in February of 2015, but despite the popularity of the game and the plethora of DLC the publisher has not hinted at the next installment.
The next Dragon Ball game set to release is the upcoming Dragon Ball: Project Fusion for the Nintendo 3DS. However, there has been no release date announced.
So what do you think of Schemmel’s comment regarding Dragon Ball Xenoverse? Are we getting Xenoverse 2? Let us know your thoughts in the comments section.
