There are also five parallel quests and eight master quests. New accessories include Tagoma's Scouter and Turtle Hermit set. DLC 3 features seven Z-souls and 14 moves. Two additional Masters, Jaco the Galactic Patroller and Elder Kai, will be included.

Recently, Saiyan Island posted a few screenshots from the DLC 3 package. The publication also revealed that there will be in-game transformations. Additionally, character facial expressions have been improved. Players can create new characters that can fight online.  

Bonus Campaigns Coming Soon

Meanwhile, two upcoming bonus campaigns will allow players to earn more points and zeni than under normal gampelay.

From May 21 thru 27, players will have the chance to earn 25 percent more points while playing parallel questions. Points can be used to level up characters.

Between May 28 and June 5, players will be able to win 25 percent more zeni. This in-game currency can be used to buy perks such as accessories, clothing, equipment, and attack moves.
