Information:is a form that places a targeted individual under mind control and greatly increases their power and evil intent. It is taken on by several individuals when they are placed under Towa or Demigra's Dark Magic or by eating the Fruit of the Tree of Might infused with the power of the Demon Realm.

In the game's story mode several characters during the story take on Villainous Mode,with their power increasing dramatically and can even grant an individual additional abilities with a Villainous Mode version of Mr. Satan gaining the ability to fly and shoot ki blasts. In some Parallel Quests,certain fighters will also enter Villainous Mode.

There appears to be multiple stages to the Villainous Mode state.

•The First Stage sees the targeted individual briefly take on the purple hue and glowing red eyes.

•The Second Stage sees the targeted individual maintain the purple hue and glowing red eyes throughout the length of the fight.

•The Third Stage sees the targeted individual's body turn a purplish color,their eyes turn pure red and they gain two black lines that go from the bottom of their eyes. This form is playable in Xenoverse.

During the finale of Xenoverse, during the Demon God Demigra Saga, Demigra resurrects Frieza, Cell, and Kid Buu and uses his Dark Magic to put them into Villainous Mode. Goku and the Future Warrior fight and defeat the three. However Vegeta, Gotenks and Gohan arrive having also been put into Villainous Mode. Goku and the Future Warrior defeat them,returning them to normal. After returning to Toki-Toki City the Future Warrior finds that Demigra has also take control of Trunks and placed him into Villainous Mode too however the Future Warrior defeats him returning him to normal. Demigra attempts to use his magic on the Future Warrior but is saved by Trunks and the Supreme Kai of Time's interference.

During Old Kai's training of the Future Warrior,Elder Kai creates a doppelganger of the Warrior's Ego. After being defeated,the Warrior's Ego revives and transforms into Villainous Mode. After the Warrior defeats their Ego,Elder Kai reveals that they had just defeated the dark ambitious ego that had been growing deep within the Warrior's soul. It is implied that the Ego's use of Villainous Mode was actually a manifestation of the Warrior's own inner darkness which the Warrior's Ego personified. However it is also possible that the Warrior's Ego was affected by Demigra's Dark Magic during the Demon God's failed attempt to take control of the Warrior during the Demon God Demigra Saga.

Towa and Mira continue to use Dark Magic to empower various villains with Villainous Mode though later abandons it in favor of the new spell created by Towa that causes villains to take on Supervillain by shaving off some of the recipients' life force in exchange for much greater power. During The Ginyu Force Strikes Saga and The Galactic Emperor Saga, it is shown one can gain access to Villainous Mode via eating the Fruit of the Tree of Might (Demon Realm). Like in Xenoverse,the Villainous Mode is a Skill that only available to Enemy NPCs and is listed in their skillset when scanned in search view. However in Xenoverse 2 it is classified as an Awoken Skill as it appears in its slot on the enemy's skillset when scanned in Search View. Though Towa and Mira stop using it, it still makes rare appearances in Parallel Quests and certain Expert Missions.
