In the special arc of the Super Dragon Ball Heroes anime, Xeno Trunks turns
into Super Saiyan God. In the other hand, it's unclear to me if Future Trunks
of the same anime is capable to turn Super Saiyan Rage or only Super Saiyan 2.
(I don't remember any episode of Future Trunks turning Super Saiyan Rage in
Super Dragon Ball Heroes)

Which Trunks is stronger in Dragon Ball Heroes, future Trunks or Xeno Trunks?

Which Trunks is stronger in Dragon Ball Heroes, future Trunks or Xeno Trunks?


**Xeno-Trunks most probably is quite stronger than Future Trunks.**

First, it should be noted that the Dragon Ball Heroes continuity (from which
Xeno Trunks comes) is wildly inconsistent when it comes to scaling and power
levels. All battles and transformations shown are created for the sake of game
promotion and fan-service. So every feat must be taken with a grain of salt.
Depending on whether you use the game, the manga or the anime as a basis for
your comparisons, results can vary. I have chosen to rely on the **DBH anime**
here since I am most familiar with that source.

The **Super Saiyan 4** and **Super Saiyan Blue** are considered among fans to
be roughly equals. This was implicitly chosen as true by the DBH anime : in
episode 1, Xeno SSJ4 Goku and SSB Goku have a short skirmish, which concludes
as a tie. Granted, their fight didn't last and they didn't go all out, but
this can be interpreted as the anime deciding those forms are roughly equal.

Meanwhile, within the (canonical) Dragon Ball Super anime, we can see [SSB
Vegeto against Fused Zamasu](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6KGI735P8ao). The
saiyan warrior doesn't crush Zamasu, but still handles himself fairly well. On
the other hand, [Future Trunks is unceremoniously blown
back](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GlV5DlYPaqw), even with an enraged power
boost. Future Trunks only [slays Fused
Zamasu](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7TbNciZE0Tw) after creating the
[_Sword of Hope_](https://dragonball.fandom.com/wiki/Sword_of_Hope), which is
basically a fortuitous Genkidama created around Future Trunks' sword. Trunks
doesn't know that technique, and only used it by accident in extremely
specific circumstances. We can conclude that **Future Trunks is weaker than
SSB Vegeto**.

Now, what about **Xeno Trunks** ? The climax of the Super Dragon Ball Heroes
anime involves Mechikabura, the Demon King, fighting both against Xeno SSJ4
Vegeto and Super Saiyan God Trunks. As we have previously established, Xeno
SSJ4 Vegeto should be comparable to SSB Vegeto. Moreover, Xeno SSG Trunks is
essential in sealing Mechikabura, as he deals a crucial blow to his torso and
allows Xeno Vegeto to conclude the battle. We can infer from this battle that
**Xeno Trunks is stronger than Future Trunks, at least if Future Trunks
doesn't have the Sword of Hope.**

It should be noted, however, that SSG Xeno Trunks wielded the [_Key
Sword_](https://dragonball.fandom.com/wiki/Key_Sword) against Mechikabura.
That relic was supercharged by
[Demigra](https://dragonball.fandom.com/wiki/Demigra),
[Chronoa](https://dragonball.fandom.com/wiki/Chronoa) and
[Tokitoki](https://dragonball.fandom.com/wiki/Tokitoki_\(Chronoa\)), who all
possess god-level ki and powers. If SSG Xeno Trunks didn't have the _Key
Sword_ at that time, he probably wouldn't have fared as well against
Mechikabura.

In the end, we can only remember that **anything related to Dragon Ball Heroes
or Dragon Ball Xenoverse is fully non-canonical** , and that their sense of
scaling and relative power levels is fuzzy at best.
