The rumors then were saying that it is possible that Bandai Namco would add Champa and Vados. But there are also speculations saying that it could also be anybody from Zamasu, Super Saiyan Rose Black Goku, or Super Saiyan Blue Vegito.
As it turned out those rumors were merely fan wild guesses as it was Cabba and Frost who came out as new characters from the first ever DLC of “Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2.”
But it is possible that the character guesses may come out in the second DLC of the game to be released early next year, notes the iTech Post.
Did not come with fixes?
Amid the new DLC, Bandai Namco has not said anything about fixing some of the common issues and glitches that “Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2” gamers are experiencing.
