You know, Beerus gets all the hype, but I just frigging love Whis. He is by far my favorite addition to the Dragonball cast.

He's not an active participant in any of the fights in DBS but he definitely can fight, it's effectively established that he and the other angel/advisors to the other GoDs are far more powerful and scary than the GoDs themselves, basically just under El Grande Padre and Zen-Oh themselves


edit: not to mention the fact that he singlehandedly trained goku and vegeta to basically put them where they are right now power level/skill wise, and can defend against both of them simultaneously without having even a single blow landed on him, casually

So how does this preorder bonus thing work? The last few FGs I bought, these "preorder only bonuses" actually were a part of a day 1 edition that came with codes whether or not you preordered.

I live near a place that regularly breaks street dates, so I'd prefer to get my game from there rather than preordering from some place.

Whis is basically beerus' owner and treats him like a pet he cant say no to

A lot of stuff involving Trunks and Goku Black

Yeah I guess I'm just thinking of finishers and how faithful they're trying to be. I thought about Nappa and Vegeta but as a finisher it didn't make much sense as they were a team. Figure if it's in it would be like how Frieza kills Krillin in the intro vs Goku.

I'm pretty sure Cell crushing the head is going to be a intro as well, though T.Gohan killing Cell would be neato

The only preorder exclusive bonuses are the lobby avatars and some chat stickers, if that's what you're worried about. SSB Goku and Vegeta are available to everyone but the preorder simply gives you a code to unlock them immediately. I'm assuming that normally they're either bought with in game currency or you can get them through the gacha system similar to Sin in SIGN and Raven in Revelator.

Teen Gohan killing Cell is in the trailer

Cell crushing 16 is at 58 seconds Gohan killing Cell and doing the thumbs up starts at 1:05

Didn't stop him from being in Xenoverse. His gimmick is that he barely has any movesets, but his stats are so incredibly sky high that it doesn't matter.

That's the price for most AAA games new nowadays. Not sure what you were expecting?

£29.99 on PC would be typical. Laffo that it's £75 for the 'fighter' edition which presumably means the version that ends up with all the characters via DLC.

if it's the one i'm thinking of it's a really boring one that just uses the very first preview screenshot they showed of the game back at e3 as a background

i can't even remember what music it uses
