While the spin-off series to Dragon Ball Super, Super Dragon Ball Heroes, has given us all new battles with villains looking to change the universe to their whims, such as Hearts and his God Slayer transformation, there is still a big part of the lore that has yet to be explored. With the spin-off series originally beginning as an arcade game that incorporated cards into each session, a manga and unique storyline was created to introduce old characters with a new twist as well as completely new villains for the Z Fighters to square off against. Now, with the second season of Super Dragon Ball Heroes on the way, the franchise has released a summary of the upcoming episode as well as its title.

The SDBH special ep is just an intro of Time Patrol in Anime form. It’s needed for the “Anime only” viewers as they don’t read the manga.
And the next arc of Heroes, will have a lot of Xeno Characters’ interactions.#SDBH https://t.co/Jlc1JU9QIV

In the Dragon Ball Heroes lore, the Demon King and his minions in hell were looking to gather the “Dark Dragon Balls” to help them take over the universe. The balls themselves found their way into numerous villains across the timeline of Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z, giving the antagonists serious power boosts. The Time Patrol, made up of characters from the series such as Future Trunks, Goku, and Vegeta, traveled across time in order to attempt to gather the balls, and fight old villains as well as attempt to stop the machinations of the Demon King and his minions.
The upcoming episode will most likely be giving fans a recap of the events that took place, as well as introduce the number of new demons that will surely be threatening the universe in the second season of Super Dragon Ball Heroes!
