When it comes to tournaments in real life, in game or even in movies, Dragonball has some of the longest and more memorable. Where else can you watch two people fight Monday through Friday in 22 minute increments only to have no one win and a monster to land on Earth to challenge them both. You sure won’t see that in Street Fighter, mostly because there isn’t a TV show just an animated movie…so I guess that doesn’t work, but I digress! On the Bandai Namco Youtube channel they posted a video that announced an upcoming Dragonball Xenoverse tournament
The beta tournament started yesterday at 4 pm and will run until August 23rd and 15:59 pm.
The following information was posted on the Dragonball Xenoverse website
