Bandai Namco has provided a closer look at Dragon Ball Xenoverse 3's character customization systems following this week's gameplay reveal. The sequel offers six avatar races, with Android joining the lineup as a new option. Players will explore an Age 1000 version of West City and develop their created fighter through mentors, abilities, transformations and customizable fighting styles. Bandai Namco says the city contains quests, social spaces and collectible items that feed back into character development. Xenoverse 3 is confirmed for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and PC.

The addition of Androids marks a long-requested feature for the Xenoverse franchise.
