PS5 XSX PC

Dragon Ball: Sparking! ZERO is a 3D fighting game. It is part of the Dragon Ball: Budokachi Tenkaichi series. The game uses a license of the extremely popular manga and anime by Akira Toriyama. It is another fighting game from the Dragon Ball series created by Spike Chunsoft studio, which, apart from the aforementioned series (long known in Japan under the name Dragon Ball Z: Sparking!), also developed Raging Blast and Jump Force.

Gameplay

As is tradition, Dragon Ball: Sparking! ZERO is an arena brawler, in which the action is observed not from the side, but from behind the warrior's back (TPP view). The fights take place in full three dimensions on huge arenas, which give a great opportunity to show off for the superhumanly powerful martial artists. Beam collisions, dash attacks, and eye-catching moves – these and other techniques straight from the manga and anime (and previous installments in the Budokai Tenkaichi series) are utilized to their full potential during duels.

Characters

We can choose from Dragon Ball heroes known from the manga, as well as episodes of animated series and films. Goku, Yamcha, Vegeta, Frieza, Piccolo, Krillin, Broly, Majin Buu, and Jiren are just some of the characters available as playable warriors. Each fighter stands out with a unique set of attacks (including special ones) and enhancing transformations. ZERO has the largest collection of warriors in the history of the entire series – the cast includes even lesser-known characters like Bergamo.

Game modes, cross-play

Dragon Ball: Sparking! ZERO includes network competition mode and the ability to play alone with bots. Unfortunately, cross-play functionality is not provided in multiplayer mode.

Engine, graphics

Dragon Ball: Sparking! ZERO is based on Unreal Engine 5 technology. The whole thing follows the trend long established by the DB adaptations. Graphics are three-dimensional , maintained in a style referring to comics and animated series, primarily the latest film adaptations supervised by Naohiro Shintani, animation director at Toei.

At the same time, the creators took the destruction system of the environment to a new level. Arenas are constantly changing in response to players' actions, especially powerful special attacks.
