While Dragon Ball FighterZ may be the toast of the town when it comes to Bandai Namco‘s lineup of fighting games, we certainly have to give Dragon Ball Xenoverse its due. Across two releases so far, the series has done really well, offering dozens of characters in full-blown 3D battles. And now, it’s reached a new sales plateau that guarantees we’ll be seeing more where that came from.

Bandai Namco has confirmed that the game series has managed to clear ten million copies sold across the two releases, making it one of its biggest anime-licensed efforts to date. Granted, we don’t know how well Dragon Ball FighterZ has sold just yet but we’ll likely find out soon, especially with EVO 2018 right around the corner.
The company previously reported that the series had sold eight million copies by November 2017. It’s obvious that the Switch version of Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 helped move the series along for another two million copies; but credit also deserves to be given to the extra downloadable content Bandai Namco has been gradually adding to the game since its release. That support is likely to continue in the months ahead, even as FighterZ gets its own fighters.
