Race
In Dragon Ball Xenoverse, you can play as a character that you create.
Choosing any unlocked character is only possible in duels and challenges - the campaign must be completed as your own character.
Firstly, you have to select your race.
It is a difficult decision, as it can't be changed and it affects the attributes of your character.
Unique outfits are also made to improve the racial abilities. You can choose from five races:
- Frieza - this race is characterized by fast, weak attacks that get even faster when their HP is low. Their innate ability is paralysing with Ki Blasts.
- Namekian - units with a high health that regenerates when it's low and stamina that regenerates really quickly. Their attacks are slow, but they're the best at using all sorts of items during the fights (capsules).
- Earthling - typically for humans in games, they are the most balanced race, both in attack and defence. They regenerate Ki automatically.
- Saiyans - a race of warriors who use all kinds of Ki Blasts, also because of their low HP. They have a high attack that increases even more when their health drops. Their attributes improve after being revived. Saiyans can transform into Super Saiyans during fights.
- Majin - a race with a very high defence, but low parry, since they have low stamina. When the stamina bar is full, their defence increases even more. The rest of the stats varies according to the character's gender. They can learn a technique that lets them sleep and regenerate during a fight.
