The latest Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 trailer from Bandai Namco -- via Siliconera -- shows off a lot of what’s new in the sequel to the 2015 hit game including some new customization additions, story elements and how battling has changed.

Check out the latest Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 trailer below.

The Xenoverse 2 trailer reiterates the story of the new game, which is similar to the first game as your custom character joins the Time Patrol to help stop a villain from altering the Dragon Ball timeline.

However, this time the main villain has recruited some of the most ruthless baddies from the Dragon Ball universe to help alter the timeline. You’ll also notice that your character will be able to infiltrate Frieza’s army and even join the Ginyu Force.

On the customization side, the Majin race can now transform into the Kid Buu form. If you choose the Frieza race for your custom character, you’ll be able to transform into the Gold Frieza form, like in the Resurrection of F movie. You can also have a Super Namekian transformation.

And, of course, Super Saiyan 3 for your character was confirmed in the last trailer.

More fighting was shown in the Xenoverse 2 trailer, with an emphasis on the now 60 fps engine announced at E3 2016. During E3, the devs took players' suggestions into account to improve battling, including better combo opportunities and a way to avoid attacks more easily.

The main city in Xenoverse 2 is different from Toki Toki City in that it’s seven times larger and you can actually fly. Golden City allows players to fly around once they’ve learned and leveled up enough to gain the flight ability. Players can even use vehicles like a hoverboard to get around, and the presenter said players can even race using them, which is shown in the above trailer.

Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 will release Oct. 25.
