🎥 Missing Specials and Ultimates Animations? Here's the FIX! (Depth of Field Bug)
By Insania
⚠️ Overview

If you've noticed that some Ultimates or animations are missing or bugged in Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2, especially flashy ones like Goku’s Godly Display or Dragon Fist, you're not alone. There's a weird graphics bug tied to the Depth of Field setting that can break these moves entirely.
❌ What’s Affected?

These are just some of the moves/characters impacted by the bug:

🔥 Goku (UI) - Godly Display

👿 Goku Black Rose Ultra (Villainous Mode) - New Ultimate

🍬 Android 21 - Ultimate Attack

⚡ Majuub - Ultimate

🐉 Dragon Fist (Various Users)

💥 New Broly (DLC) - Ultimate Attack

...and there is more, especially newer or modded content.

What happens?

Missing visual effects

No cinematic/beam/energy animation

Just a weird "pause" or broken transition

🛠️ The Fix (Temporary Workaround)

Go to your in-game settings and do the following:
✅ Set Depth of Field to LOW

✔️ This setting restores all the missing animations and cinematic effects.
❌ Setting it to OFF or HIGH causes the bug.

Steps:

Launch the game

Go to Settings > Graphics

Find Depth of Field

Set it to LOW

📌 Why This Matters

This affects the overall experience.

🧠 Final Notes

This seems like a rendering/post-processing bug that breaks VFX depending on DoF settings. Until it’s patched, just leave Depth of Field on LOW and enjoy your specials or ultimates as intended.

Feel free to share this or link others here if they’re confused. I’ll update this guide if more fixes or updates come out.

And you wanna check how bad its actually is just pick MUI Goku do a godly display with "depth of field off" and do it with setting low. You will instantly understand what I m talking about.

Another interesting thing in photo mode if you freeze time and unfreeze the animations will work properly.

THIS BUG WAS CAUSED BY ULTRA VILLAIN DLC PACKS.

Not to mention the bug is weird, sometimes it affects numerous skills and sometimes it doesn't but the issue is present. GODLY DISPLAY MUI goku IS BEST EXAMPLE that ultimate only is fixed with depth of field set to low as with all other skills that start to have random issues.

I m leaving this just in case someone finds it, cause after trial and error I found a way to fix this annoying bug. It effects a lot of skills but its easy to miss for example the explosion missing animations, super spirit bomb missing a layer of animations and more. Its crazy how they managed to break it.
