This is my second written FAQ here on GameFAQs and I feel that I am still learning. As such, I am open to any suggestions that you may have for me to make this FAQ better. If you have any, you can send me private messages here on GameFAQs and I will look at them when I have the time.
Introduction
Dragon Ball Xenoverse is the 1st game of the Dragon Ball franchise to be released on the next gen consoles, PS4 and Xbox One. It is also available on PS3, Xbox 360, and PC. Xenoverse has a 3D fighting game style similar to that of the Budokai Tenkaichi games and Raging Blast games and is the 3rd game to feature character creation, after Online and Ultimate Tenkaichi. In fact, the plot of Xenoverse seems to tie together with that of Online due to the concept of time travel and returning characters, Time Patrol Future Trunks, Kaioshin of Time, Towa, and Mira.
Gameplay
Control Settings
Below are lists of the 3 different battle control settings for Xenoverse on the PS4, as well as on the PS3, Xbox One, Xbox 360, and PC. The PC's control settings are based on if you are using an Xbox 360 controller to play the game since you can assign any action to any key on your keyboard if you are using that.

Recommended Control Settings
The default control settings are Type A but I recommend using the Type C settings for the sake of better placement of specific battle functions, particularly those involving movement. However, regardless of which Operation Type that you choose, it will not change what buttons must be pressed to perform each character's super attacks, ultimate attacks, and evasive skill, including those of your created character.
Combo System
Below is a list of all of the possible basic combos that can be performed according to the buttons pressed. The combo list represents the controls on the PS4, as well as on the PS3, Xbox One, Xbox 360, and PC with the use of an Xbox 360 controller. The 1st Triangle button (or Y button) in each combo is chargeable, except in Combo 1.
Note: Each character in the game, including your created character, uses this same combo setup but the way that their combos execute and look are what vary.
Combo | Button Sequence on PS4 and PS3 | Button Sequence on Xbox One, Xbox 360, and PC (Xbox 360 Controller) |
Combo 1 | Square -> Square -> Square -> Square -> Square -> Triangle -> Triangle -> Triangle | X -> X -> X -> X -> X -> Y -> Y -> Y |
Combo 2 | Square -> Square -> Square -> Square -> Triangle (Chargeable) -> Triangle | X -> X -> X -> X -> Y (Chargeable) -> Y |
Combo 3 | Square -> Square -> Square -> Triangle (Chargeable) -> Triangle | X -> X -> X -> Y (Chargeable) -> Y |
Combo 4 | Square -> Square -> Triangle (Chargeable) -> Triangle | X -> X -> Y (Chargeable) -> Y |
Combo 5 | Square -> Triangle (Chargeable) -> Triangle | X -> Y (Chargeable) -> Y |
Combo 6 | Triangle (Chargeable) -> Triangle -> Triangle -> Triangle -> Triangle | Y (Chargeable) -> Y -> Y -> Y -> Y |
Combo 7 | Triangle (Chargeable) -> Square -> Square -> Square -> Square | Y (Chargeable) -> X -> X -> X -> X |
Combo 8 | Triangle (Chargeable) -> Square -> Triangle -> Square -> Triangle | Y (Chargeable) -> X -> Y -> X -> Y |

World's Best Kept Secret! | Bronze | Obtained your first Dragon Ball! | You can sometimes obtain Dragon Balls when you fight against CPU controlled Time Patrollers (other players' characters) during certain Parallel Quests that take place on Earth (you can only summon Shenron in this game). You know that you have gotten a Dragon Ball when you receive a Key Item after defeating a Time Patroller. |
Another Bit Of Hope | Bronze | Found Two-Star Ball! | It is random as to which Dragon Ball you get from defeating a Time Patroller. Just keep farming for Dragon Balls and you will eventually get this one. |
Grandpa's Memoir | Silver | Found Four-Star Ball! | It is random as to which Dragon Ball you get from defeating a Time Patroller. Just keep farming for Dragon Balls and you will eventually get this one. |
The Best Miracle Of The World | Silver | Gathered 7 Dragon Balls and summoned Shenron! | The fastest way to farm for Dragon Balls without wasted effort is to keep playing Parallel Quest 12. A Time Patroller sometimes appears some distance away from you in the 1st area and there are no enemies to fight before him or her. If they do not appear or if they do appear but you do not get a Dragon Ball after defeating them, just pause the game and select retry. Repeat this process until you get all 7. |
The Greatest Warriors | Silver | Unlocked all characters and variations! | By clearing the main story, the bonus story, and all of the Parallel Quests, you will unlock all of the characters and their variations except for 3. They are Super Saiyan 4 Gogeta, Super 17, and Omega Shenron. To unlock them, you must wish for them using the Dragon Balls. However, you will only unlock 1 character per wish so you will have to collect the Dragon Balls 3 times. |
All Around The Universe | Bronze | Visited all stages! | This unlocks automatically as you proceed through the story and Parallel Quests. |
For The Sake Of The Future | Bronze | Played Online Battles for the first time! | This can be unlocked by playing any of the different online battle types. |
Won't You Dance With Me? | Silver | Played Online Battles 7 times! | This can be unlocked by playing any of the different online battle types. However, I recommend playing Endless Battles to save yourself time and unlock the Endless Battle trophies as well. |
A Fight Of Courage And Pride | Silver | Won online 7 times! | This can be unlocked by playing any of the different online battle types. However, I recommend playing Endless Battles to save yourself time and unlock the Endless Battle trophies as well. |
Heart-Thumping Encounter | Bronze | Added a Time Patroller to your Favorites List! | This can be done in when you are in Toki Toki City (it does not matter if it is the Single Lobby or Multi Lobby). Simply select another player's character and add them to your Favorites List. |
Share Your Energy With Me! | Bronze | Sent a Gift! | You can send gifts to players who you have gone on Parallel Quests with, players who are on your Favorites List, or players who have previously sent you gifts. |
I Got A Present For Ya! | Bronze | Received a "Present!" | The odds of receiving a gift from a random player are low so you should ask a friend to send you a gift. |
A Fantastic Journey Begins! | Bronze | Cleared 1 Parallel Quest! | You cannot miss this trophy since you a forced to play your 1st Parallel Quest as part of Future Trunks's tutorials. |
Proof Of My Courage | Bronze | Cleared 7 Parallel Quests! | This unlocks automatically as you proceed through the Parallel Quests. |
Chaos Is Coming! | Bronze | Parallel Quest completion rate is over 50%! | This unlocks automatically as you proceed through the Parallel Quests. |
End Of The Century Excitement! | Bronze | Parallel Quest completion rate is over 80%! | This unlocks automatically as you proceed through the Parallel Quests. |
Memories Buried In Time | Silver | Cleared all Parallel Quests! | Once you clear all of the Parallel Quests, you will unlock this trophy. |
Full Super Power! | Bronze | Gathered all super attacks! | You can obtain skills easily just by purchasing them from the Skills Shop. After clearing each saga, more skills will be added to shop. However, you cannot obtain all of them this way. The remaining skills must be obtained by completing training sessions with masters, clearing Parallel Quests, and making wishes on the Dragon Balls. The training sessions are guaranteed to give you the skills on the 1st try but the Parallel Quests drop skills randomly so you may have to repeatedly play them until you get them all (this is the most time consuming and annoying part of the game). In terms of the wishes, you will need collect the Dragon Balls 4 times because you will need to wish for new super attacks twice and new ultimate attacks twice. If you use the farming method that I suggested above, it should not take you too long. Also, certain skills are given to you for free as part of a starting layout chosen for your character at the time of creation. There are 3 layouts: Striker, Blaster, and Balanced. You will need make a character of each type in order to get all of the starting skills. |
Full Ultimate Power! | Bronze | Gathered all ultimate attacks! | You can obtain skills easily just by purchasing them from the Skills Shop. After clearing each saga, more skills will be added to shop. However, you cannot obtain all of them this way. The remaining skills must be obtained by completing training sessions with masters, clearing Parallel Quests, and making wishes on the Dragon Balls. The training sessions are guaranteed to give you the skills on the 1st try but the Parallel Quests drop skills randomly so you may have to repeatedly play them until you get them all (this is the most time consuming and annoying part of the game). In terms of the wishes, you will need collect the Dragon Balls 4 times because you will need to wish for new super attacks twice and new ultimate attacks twice. If you use the farming method that I suggested above, it should not take you too long. Also, certain skills are given to you for free as part of a starting layout chosen for your character at the time of creation. There are 3 layouts: Striker, Blaster, and Balanced. You will need make a character of each type in order to get all of the starting skills. |
Battle In Your Sleep | Bronze | Completed 7 Auto-Patrols! | The servers have to be working properly for you to get this trophy. As you log in and log out with your character, you will sometimes get an Auto-Patrol result screen which indicates what your character has done online while you are not playing. Once your character has completed a total of 7 Auto-Patrols, you will unlock this trophy. If you and a friend take turns playing in the Single Lobby with each others' characters recruited on your teams from your Favorites Lists, you both can just play an easy Parallel Quest 7 times to get the trophy quickly. |
Rival To My Dreams | Bronze | Observed 7 battles! | Create an Endless Battle lobby with yourself set as only a spectator. Invite 2 friends into the lobby and watch them battle 7 times. Then, let your friends do the same afterwards (be kind and share the time). |
Eyes On The Prize | Bronze | Gathered 500,000 zeni! | Try not to spend any of your money as you play through the game until after you have reached the required amount. That way, you you will obtain the trophy sooner. |
Take On All Challengers | Bronze | Participated in Endless Battle 7 times! | This will unlock after you play your 7th Endless Battle. |
Online Champion | Silver | Won Endless Battle 7 times! | This will unlock after you win your 7th Endless Battle. |
Team Player | Bronze | Revived KO'd allies 7 times in online matches! | It will be easier to unlock this trophy if you work together with friends for it. You an 3 other friends should make 2 teams of 2 and fight against each other in 2 vs 2 Player Matches. Take turns defeating only 1 person on each team and reviving them until you all have performed 7 revivals. The trophy will not unlock until after the battle ends. Due to the time limit on matches, you and your friends may have to play multiple matches until you all unlock the trophy. However, I have personally found that the fastest way to unlock this trophy is to have everyone use Level 1 characters with Captain Ginyu's Holstein Shock skill equipped. Using that skill will make your characters injure themselves to the point that 1 hit can defeat them, thus making the process much faster. |
Rainbows Form In Your Eyes | Silver | Friendship levels maximized with all masters! | You will unlock this automatically after completing each master's training. Each of them should be marked with a "Max" for your Play Data. |
Walkthrough
Now it is time for the actual walkthrough of the different modes.
Story Mode
This will cover both the main story and bonus story of Dragon Ball Xenoverse. Every time that you complete a saga, you have the opportunity to replay it as many times as you like by visiting the Time Vault inside the Time Nest. You can also simply just rewatch that saga's cutscenes if you wish. Also, every time that you complete a saga, take the time to speak to the NPC named Ziko who stands outside the Time Nest in the Plaza of Time. He will give you a free item each time.
Prologue
The events of the Prologue will introduce you to the plot of Dragon Ball Xenoverse.
Historic Fight
This consists of 3 battles in Dragon Ball Z history: Super Saiyan Goku vs Final Form Frieza, Super Saiyan Goku vs Perfect Cell, and Super Saiyan 3 Goku vs Kid Buu. As these are the beginning battles, they are not too difficult. After the battles, the opening cinematic will play.
Saiyan Saga
Following the opening cinematic, you will be able to create your character. Once you have chosen your character's race, gender (if applicable), appearance, voice, and name, you must choose a starting layout of skills. You can choose between Striker, Blaster, or Balanced. Note: To obtain all skills for the trophies, you will need to create at least 3 characters, each with 1 of the different starting layout types. However, you can only make 1 character right now so choose the layout that best suits your fighting style in DBZ games. When you clear the whole main story, you will be able to make 7 more characters, giving you a total of 8 character slots. Once you have selected your starting layout, your character will appear in Toki Toki City and encounter Future Trunks.
Trunks Test!
Win Conditions: Defeat Future Trunks
Lose Conditions: None
Future Trunks wishes to test your abilities so you will have to fight him and prove yourself. This battle acts as a tutorial to introduce you to the battle system of Xenoverse. Simply read each of the messages that appear and do as they say.
When the battle is over, Future Trunks will explain the situation to you. Following that, you must travel around Toki Toki City and speak to all of the NPC Time Patrollers in each area with question marks over their heads. You should also take the time to speak to Garid, the robot located outside the Time Nest in the Plaza of Time. He has a list of tutorial explanations for you. Once you are finished, report back to Future Trunks to continue the story.
Invasion of Earth! Saiyan Warrior Raditz
Win Conditions: Defeat Raditz
Lose Conditions: Player HP depleted
Your first mission as a member of the Time Patrol is to help Goku and Piccolo defeat Raditz. Since it is 3 vs 1, you should not have too much trouble.
With the mission a success, that era in time has been corrected. Future Trunks will give you a green Old Scouter like Bardock's and tell you to complete your 1st Parallel Quest. Parallel Quest 00 acts as a tutorial to get you used to how they are. You must clear it before you can continue the story. The other current Parallel Quests (as well as all future ones) are optional so you can play them whenever you choose to. Also, you can now go shopping but I suggest that you try to spend as little money as possible until you get 500,000 zeni for the Eyes On The Prize trophy.
Return of the Saiyans Saga
Now it is time to make sure that the battles involving Vegeta and Nappa go their correct course.
Infestation! Saibamen Scourge
Win: Defeat 20 enemies
Lose: Player HP depleted
You will be helping the Z Fighters battle against the Saibamen. They will come at you in waves but after you defeat 20 of them, the mission will be complete.
Arrival of the Saiyan Warriors
Win Conditions: Defeat all enemies
Lose Conditions: Player HP depleted, Gohan HP depleted, Krillin HP depleted
At first, you will be fighting Nappa with the help of Piccolo but after Piccolo sacrifices himself to save Gohan, you will be fighting him with Gohan and Krillin;'s help. Eventually, Goku will show up to fight Vegeta and you will be fighting Napa alone. Once you defeat Nappa, help Goku defeat Vegeta and complete the mission.
Power x10! Vegeta Transforms
Win Conditions: Defeat Great Ape Vegeta
Lose Conditions: Player HP depleted, Ally HP depleted
You will now have to help Goku face Vegeta in his Great Ape form. As you know, a Saiyan's tail is their weak point and luckily, there is a tutorial that teaches you how to exploit that weakness when fighting Great Apes. Do what the tutorial teaches you and you will have no problem defeating Vegeta. Once Vegeta's health gets low enough, Gohan and Krillin will join the battle and Krillin will cut off Vegeta's tail.
Prince's Pride! Limit Battle
Win Conditions: Defeat Vegeta
Lose Conditions: Player HP depleted
This is the last battle against Vegeta. When it is over, the Saiyan Saga will be complete and you will finally meet the Kaioshin of Time that Future Trunks was speaking of before. You will also find that you can now access both Single Lobby and Multi Lobby, allowing you to play the game with other people online. However, you will need to have PlayStation Plus to play the PS4 version of Xenoverse online. Online multiplayer for games is only free on PS3 and PS Vita.
Ginyu Force Saga
Now it is time to move on to the Ginyu Force Saga.
Those Weird Guys! Ginyu Force
Win Conditions: Reduce Ginyu's health to a certain amount or Defeat Recoome
Lose Conditions: Player HP depleted
In this battle, you will be facing Captain Ginyu with Vegeta during the 1st phase then later, Recoome will join in but you will have Gohan and Krillin joining you. Personally, I found that since Vegeta will be focusing on Captain Ginyu, it is easier to focus on Recoome so as to keep them separated and make sure that they do not chain any combos together.
Goku Clashes with Ginyu Force
Win Conditions: Reduce Ginyu's health to a certain amount
Lose Conditions: Player HP depleted
Goku shows up and knocks out Recoome. Now the 2 of you will fight Captain Ginyu together until Jeice and Burter join the fray. Let Goku handle Captain Ginyu while you battle Jeice and Burter. Eventually Captain Ginyu will switch bodies with you by mistake. Keep fighting until Goku asks you to leave to help Gohan and Krillin. One that happens, the battle is over.
Spaceship Sneak Mission as Ginyu
Win Conditions: Defeat 20 enemies
Lose Conditions: Player HP depleted, Ally HP depleted
You have to work as quickly as possible with this mission to ensure that Gohan and Krillin survive. If either of them are defeated, you will have to start over. With that start, move on ahead of them to defeat as many enemies as possible before they encounter them if possible. However, if they end up in danger, immediately return to them and defeat whoever is attacking them. Also, Guldo will appear midway into the battle. Since he is stronger than the other enemies, defeat him as soon as he appears before he gets the chance to hurt Gohan and/or Krillin.
Take Back History and Your Body
Win Conditions: Defeat all enemies
Lose Conditions: Player HP depleted, Ally HP depleted
Now is the time to get your body back and make history take its proper course. After getting your body back, you will have to battle Captain Ginyu in Goku's body. Guldo will eventually join him but you will have Vegeta on your side along with Goku in Captain Ginyu's body. Defeat both of them and the mission will be complete.
Discovered! History Invaders
Win Conditions: Reduce enemy health to a certain amount
Lose Conditions: Player HP depleted
The ones pulling the strings finally show themselves. They are Towa and Mira, the very same villains from Dragon Ball Online. You will be facing off against Mira alone so be on guard as he is quite strong. All you have to do is reduce his health low enough to win. You do not have to defeat him.
Following the battle, you will have a discussion with Future Trunks and Kaioshin of Time about Towa and Mira. Following it will be another Continuum Shift (sorry but I felt like making a BlazBlue reference).
Frieza Saga
It seems that the Continuum Shift involves Frieza this time. Now you must confront him.
Emperor Frieza!
Win Conditions: Reduce Frieza's health to a certain amount
Lose Conditions: Player HP depleted, Goku is defeated
This is the longest battle so far so make sure that you have health recovery capsules equipped before you start. To begin with, you must face off against Frieza in his 1st Form with the help of Gohan, Krillin, and Vegeta. Once Frieza's health drops low enough, he will transform directly into his 4th Form, making the battle more difficult. The 2nd time that his health is reduced, Vegeta will be defeated and you will have to fight Frieza again but this time, alone.

Eventually, Goku will leave the fight because his Super Saiyan 3 transformation will run out, meaning that you will have to fight the endless waves of Majin Buus until Future Trunks asks Buu to wait 2 days to fight Gotenks.

This is 1 of the toughest battles you will have to face so make sure that you have health recovery capsules equipped before you start. Demigra has brought back Frieza, Cell, and Kid Buu under the control of his dark magic, making them much stronger than when they were under the influence of Towa's dark magic. To make matters worse, you will be facing them alone. Luckily, once you reduce their health low enough, Goku will arrive to lend you a helping hand. However, you still have to be careful in this battle. After you defeat Frieza, Cell, and Kid Buu, you will have to fight more enemies controlled by Demigra's dark magic: Vegeta, Gohan, and Gotenks. The key to this whole battle is to make sure that Goku does not get defeated once he appears so that you have help against everyone. If you see Goku in trouble, go to his aid. At the same, try to keep your opponents separated from each other so that they cannot ambush Goku, or you for the matter.

It is time to face the real Demigra this time instead of his mirages from the previous battles. This battle will be easier compared to the one you just fought but sill be on guard. Once you reduce Demigra's health halfway, he will use his dark magic on Future Trunks and make him fight you. With Demigra's health already halfway depleted, just focus on finishing him off first like in the battle against his mirage and Piccolo. Afterwards, defeat Future Trunks. Once you free Future Trunks from Demigra's control, you will have to fight a fully recovered Demigra. Reduce his health halfway again and Goku will join the fray. After you and Goku defeat Demigra again, the battle with end.
Defend History! Unknown Battle
Win Conditions: Defeat Demon God Demigra
Lose Conditions: Player HP depleted
Demigra has transformed and you will be facing him alone. This the final battle of the main story so do your best. How well you do in this battle will determine whether you get the normal ending or the secret ending. The normal ending triggers when a certain amount of time passes and your health drops low enough. You will know that you are locked into the normal ending when Goku shows up to help you finish off Demigra. If he does not, there is still a chance for you to get the secret ending but you have to defeat Demigra quickly and with your most of your health preserved. With that said, I suggest replaying this battle after you get 1 ending so that you can get the other.
Bonus Story: Legendary Super Saiyan Saga
After clearing the main story, you must collect all 5 Time Chasm Crystal Shards in order to play through this bonus story. You obtain the 1st after clearing the main story and the 2nd from an NPC named Recon who stands outside the Time Nest in the Plaza of Time. The remaining 3 can be obtained from certain Parallel Quests as drops. Once you have collected all of them, report back to Future Trunks to begin this bonus story.

You have to help Bardock fight off Frieza's henchmen, followed by Frieza himself. By the point, you should have no difficulty defeating the henchment and reducing Frieza's health. However, it is important that you keep Bardock safe. If he is defeated, the mission is a failure. With that said, stay close to Bardock and help him defeat Frieza's henchmen 1 by 1. Then, when Frieza appears, focus your attacks on him since he will do the most damage. In time, the battle will end.

Now you must face off against Broly, the Legendary Super Saiyan. Help Goten, Present Trunks and Videl reduce Broly's health. Eventually, Gohan will come to take Videl's place in the battle. Keep working with Gohan, Goten, and Present Trunks to defeat Broly. The key to winning this battle is to protect everyone while also being careful of Broly's attacks. He is very powerful and does not flinch from normal attacks. Look for openings to hit him with your ultimate attacks.
Fierce Battle! Broly VS Bardock
Win Conditions: Reduce Broly's health to a certain amount or A certain amount of time passes
Lose Conditions: Player HP depletes, Bardock HP depletes
You must help Bardock battle against Broly. Your main objective is to make sure that Bardock survives. As long as you do that, you will win the battle either by reducing Broly's health low enough or by enough time passing by through stalling. Personally, I recommend trying to reduce Broly's health as quickly as possible rather than waiting for time to run out.
Power of the Low-class Warrior
Win Conditions: Defeat Broly

It it time to bring this battle against Broly to an end. Once again, reduce Broly's health.

Vegeta will now join the fight to help you as well. Finish off Broly and that will be the end of the bonus story. All that is left is to watch the final scenes.
