Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 is one of the most popular Dragon Ball games ever made. It's a delightful toy-box RPG fighting game, if there ever existed one. While not the best Dragon Ball game, it is one of the most versatile and fun. It feels like there are unlimited possibilities ahead when you boot up the game.

When Xenoverse 2 was ported to PC, modders immediately went to work expanding the game beyond its core components, adding in new material to make the already expansive game even larger. As a result, it can be a little overwhelming to select the best games from the list. However, when one gets a chance to look at all the modding content available for Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2, a few core mods rise to the surface.

Updated on January 18th, 2021 by Patrick Mocella: Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 is the Dragon Ball game that simply refuses to die. Despite its original release coming over 4 years ago, Bandai Namco continues to release DLC packs and free updates to the game. It appears that once they stop supporting the game though that modders will not as there is still tons of mods available for the game. Sometimes it's new costumes, new attacks or even simple fixes for problems the original game had. Links for all of these custom creations can be found in the entries so let's get to it.

15 Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 Revamp

Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 has been around for almost five years at this point so while the game still looks good, there are lots of things about it on a technical level that can benefit from reworking. That's where the team responsible for this mod come in.

This mod upgrades the game with new textures, models and a general list of additions that are too numerous to list here. If you're looking for a mod that brings the game to current year standards, this is the one.

14 Kermit The Frog

You might think that you are ready for this but you are not. Known online for his fame on The Muppets and as a meme superstar, Kermit The Frog is playable in Xenoverse 2 thanks to this mod.

Capable of going into God Of Destruction mode, this pint-sized puppet is a hilarious addition to the game. While there are plenty of joke mods like Shaggy and Crash Bandicoot, this one is best in our books due to how thin Kermit's arms and legs are. Makes it look supremely funny when he's beating up on beefy Vegeta.

13 Goku Sage Mode

Dragon Ball: Battle Of Z is far from a great game, but an interesting piece of bonus content to the game was a version of Goku who donned the costume of another Shonen Jump manga icon, Naruto. Thanks to the user responsible for this mod, players can now use Sage Mode Goku!

This mod goes even beyond a reskin however. New attacks like Naruto's signature Rasengan is usable along with a couple of other signature attacks from the shinobi. It's an ultimate manga fusion and you better believe that we're all for it.

12 DBXV2 Faulconer Edition

 

While his soundtrack tends to divide the Dragon Ball fandom, there is no doubt that Bruce Faulconer's work on the English dub of Dragon Ball Z is iconic to fans who grew up with it. Thanks to this mod, players can now enjoy Xenoverse 2 with that memorable score.

Due to the vast amount of content already in the game in terms of stages, characters and costumes, this soundtrack completes the DBZ sandbox for those who watched the show on Cartoon Network as children.

11 Free Shenron Wishes

Any experienced Xenoverse player knows the pain of collecting all seven Dragon Balls to make a wish. A lot of grinding is required every time you wish to make one but with the power of mods, this is no longer a hindrance.

Thanks to the user responsible for this mod, players are now free to make as many wishes as they want on Shenron. This lets you level up your characters way faster than normal, perfect for when you want to grow really strong really fast.

10 10. EnglishDub Fix

One problem with Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 is that the English audio tends to switch with certain characters to Japanese audio. This glitch is patched up with this important mod.

The EnglishDub Fix Mod fixes a bug in the game for players in search of a complete experience. It patches up a core, persistent problem with the English version of Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 that many players no doubt will find essential to maintaining immersion.

9 9. Vegeta GT Clothes Without Jacket

While Dragon Ball GT is often seen as the black sheep of the Dragon Ball saga, it has its fans. Xenoverse has been good at catering to these fans by providing GT characters a chance to shine once more.

This mod allows GT fans to further relive the sequel series's charming saga by offering Vegeta a chance to put on his GT duds... without the jacket. It offers players a chance to feel like Vegeta, taking it seriously in a series most people don't take all that seriously.

8 8. Gohan With Kaioshin Clothes

Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 does a great job at offering fan service for both long-time fans and new fans of the saga, but one moment that is often given little to no reverence in any Dragon Ball media is Gohan... wearing the Kaioshin clothing.

This mod allows you to play as Gohan with the Kaioshin attire -- a respectful, honorable look for any warrior fit for the Gods. It's one of the cooler outfits Adult Gohan wears... though considering his Great Saiyaman get-up, this isn't saying a lot...

7 7. Dende Black

Dende doesn't get a lot of respect in Dragon Ball. He is the Guardian of Earth, sure, but, beyond being a powerful healer, he isn't ever given his time in the sun. Until this mod.

This mod will swap Goku Black's character out with Dende, offering you a chance to unleash devastation upon the world using a tiny, shrimpy runt like Dende instead of Goku. Just the joy of hearing Goku Black's hammy lines coming out of Dende's mouth is... something.

6 6. Goku And Vegeta -- Transform Into Super Saiyan

While Xenoverse 2 has a lot of great material, it is a little frustrating to have to choose a form of your favorite character to play. It may feel restrictive to get Goku and Vegeta, and be unable to transition from form to form -- from Goku base to Super Saiyan to Super Saiyan God to Super Saiyan Blue...

This mod changes that by allowing Goku and Vegeta to transform into their highest forms, starting from base, only to take the match to a new level step by step.

5 5. Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2: Director's Cut Music Mod

The Dragon Ball series has a ton of great music. Of particular note are the tracks from arguably the best Dragon Ball game series: Dragon Ball Budokai and Dragon Ball Budokai Tenkaichi. It would be great to be able to play Xenoverse 2 with those songs, right?

Well, you can. Thanks to this mod. This mod switches out the music from the game with the music from older games. It's a simple, effective mod that changes the experience of the game entirely.

4 4. Linda Young Frieza

For many Dragon Ball Z fans, the old Funimation dub is super nostalgic. As time went on, however, things changed. Most notably, some of the voice actors. Linda Young, the original voice actor for Frieza, was switched out for Chris Ayres around the time Dragon Ball Z Kai came out.

For fans nostalgic for the old Frieza, this mod switches out Ayres's dialog with Linda Young's, giving fans a chance to relive the old Toonami days of the Frieza Saga all anew.

3 3. Dragon Ball Super -- Manga Pack

It is sometimes frustrating to download individual mods for a whole bunch of characters. Sometimes, you just wish someone else went to the effort of compiling a bunch of mods for you. Sometimes, you wish you could just get a pack of mods...

Enter the Dragon Ball Super -- Manga Pack. This pack allows overall character model swaps to make characters reminiscent of their counterparts in the Dragon Ball Super manga. All of this helps create that authentic Dragon Ball Super experience fans playing Xenoverse 2 might be longing for.

2 2. Future Gohan (One Arm)

Gohan needs a hand. Just one. Not two.

This mod rightfully chops off Future Gohan's rather useless arm to match his counterpart in the anime. For fans hoping to completely immerse themselves in Dragon Ball lore, this is probably a Godsend. This really should come in hand for fans who were upset to find Gohan sporting two healthy looking hands. It might cost an arm and a leg to offer fans a chance to live vicariously through their heroes, but this one cuts the burden in half.

1 1. Transformation Pack

Some fans want their games to reflect the world of Dragon Ball to the letter. Others just want to live their insane dreams out. This is the mod pack for them.

This mod pack is for fans of Dragon Ball AF -- the fanfiction "sequel" to Dragon Ball GT. If you want to play Super Saiyan 5 or Ruby Frieza, this is the form for you. It adds on some insane power-ups for fans who just want to cut loose and go wild with Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2. And, at the end of the day, what good is a game if you can't have a little extra fun with it?
