That’s it ! The long-awaited moment has finally arrived and we can discover some beautiful (and epic) gameplay for Dragon Ball Sparking Zero. Enough to drive the fans completely crazy.
Dragon Ball news has definitely been busy lately. Akira Toriyama leaves behind a horde of grieving fans, but also the ongoing projects he was working on. Among them, the Sand Land video game planned soon, the new anime DB Daima, but above all the highly anticipated Dragon Ball Sparking Zero, which marks the strong return of the license so popular with players. Bandai Namco recently increased the pressure by revealing a few new characters who will make up the game’s impressive roster. But what fans were waiting for was above all to see this Budokai Tenkaichi 4 in action. It’s now done, since the Japanese publisher has just revealed a long gameplay sequence of Dragon Ball Sparking Zero. And yes, it beats you.
Dragon Ball Sparking Zero takes action
The meeting was given at 3 p.m. sharp and Bandai Namco did not disappoint. Dragon Ball Sparking Zero therefore took action with no less than 13 minutes of gameplay highlighting the frantic fights that we were promised and at first glance, the guys don’t seem to have lied. These new sequences are also the occasion for numerous fighters (with Goku and Vegeta getting on their faces otherwise it’s not funny) and other special animations between two slaps and a punch in the gums, Kamé Hamé Ha and of course transformations everywhere.
As we can see in the brand new video, Dragon Ball Sparking Zero will take the spirit of previous games and its key mechanics while modernizing them in its own way. As was the case before, players can expect to master a vast array of playable characters, each equipped with their own unique abilities, transformations, and techniques. On paper, the game should be one of the most complete in the license with a roster of more than 160 characters. For the moment, only around forty characters have been made official and others have been added to the list:
New fighters shown
- Super Trunks
- Dyspo
- Butta
- Kakunsa
- Rosh
- Nappa
- Jeese
- Toppo
- Kale Broly
- hit
- Super Saiyan Broly (Full Power)
New mechanics presented
The game will obviously offer its small batch of new features, particularly in terms of dashes to spice up and complicate the action. Added to this is a new gauge which is charged during the fight, the “Skill Count”. It will allow you to perform new counterattacks, such as the “Revenger Counter” which allows you to retaliate by absorbing your opponents’ attacks and the “Super Perception” which allows you to counterattack by anticipating several blows, including Ki attacks. . “These new elements expand the choices you have in combat and make the game even more fun,” promises Bandai Namco in its presentation. Last new feature and not least, the “Vanishing Assaults”, which teleport your character behind his enemy in exchange for a little Ki.
Still no release date for Dragon Ball Sparking Zero. The game is still expected this year on PS5, Xbox Series and PC via Steam
