Dragon Ball Xenoverse 3's Official Announcement Reveals Goku's Future

Key Points:

• Dragon Ball: Xenoverse 3, previously known as Project Age 1000, was officially announced at the Dragon Ball Games Battle Hour event, with a new anime-style trailer and a 2027 release window for PS5, Xbox, and Steam.
• The game is set in the distant future, around Age 1000, at least 200 years after the main Dragon Ball storyline, and features new characters designed by Akira Toriyama, including the player avatar and a character named Brett, possibly a Goku descendant.
• Akira Toriyama had significant involvement in shaping the game's world and story, which aligns with concepts from Dragon Ball Online and introduces futuristic elements like a still-living Bulma and a Piccolo-like character.
• With Toyotarou’s increased influence as Dragon Ball Super’s lead mangaka and his view that much of the franchise is canon, Xenoverse 3’s storyline and characters may play a more integral role in the official Dragon Ball continuity.
• Alongside Xenoverse 3's announcement, the Dragon Ball Super: Beerus anime remake was confirmed for Fall 2026, promising a more faithful adaptation of Toyotarou's manga, further emphasizing his growing role in the franchise’s future.
