Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 Update 1.44 Mysteriously Drops During Christmas

[summaraize]

It looks like the developers at Dimps aren’t taking a day off, as Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 update 1.44 on PS4/XB1 (version 1.002.002 on PS5/XSX) is now out. This is an unannounced patch, and there’s no DLC announced set to drop today, so temper those expectations. While Christmas isn’t as big a deal in Japan as it is in other countries, it’s still odd to see a patch drop on Christmas Eve (Christmas Day for non-US people).

DB Xenoverse 2 Gets a Surprise Patch on Christmas

No word on what this patch does from Bandai Namco Entertainment just yet. On the PS4 side, the update history only states, “Made other improvements/adjustments” which is what the developers usually state there regardless of the patch contents.

For now, even the community is baffled what’s in the patch, and we’re hoping it’s something PS5 Pro-related, but given it’s also on last-gen platforms, it’s most likely one connected to bug fixes and maybe balance changes.

Last month, players got an update that raised the level cap, added custom clothes and more. Here’s a recap of the major update and DLC released last month.
