The number of fighters there will be in Dragon Ball Sparking! Zero is surreal. The heir and at the same time the fourth installment of the Budokai Tenkaichi saga continues to add iconic characters, settings and attacks at a pace unsustainable for any other fighting game, but what is truly significant is how all the Dragon Ball heroes and villains look on screen: Bandai Namco has unleashed a new thematic trailer and the way it captures the rhythm and explosiveness of the anime’s combat is impeccable, even when covering eras as different as Attack of the Saiyans or the Tournament of Power.
During the context of Gamescom Latam, Bandai Namco reserved a golden minute to formally present fighters already seen in previous trailers, iconic scenarios and confirm several characters that will give color and variety to Dragon Ball Sparking! Zero. In fact, the most significant thing is that, unlike other games in the franchise, their combat styles and the way they perform in the game are different. Some use knives or firearms, others, like Mr. Satan, cannot fly and others, like the android Anilaza, are of colossal size. The result? A whole festival of fanservice.

Have Goku, Trunks and Vegetto been shown again? Technically yes, although for practical purposes they are fighters with their own attacks and styles: the Future Trunks of Dragon Ball Super is different from the one we saw in the Android saga or the boy who fuses with Goten. And the same applies to a Super Vegetto whose transformation into a Super Saiyan Dragon Ball Z
In any case, at iGamesNews we have prepared a table in which you can easily find out who is who, whether you don’t remember the original series, or if the tremendous Tournament of Power between all the Universes is something that you have yet to see. .

My sadness knows no limits: one of my favorite DLCs has passed away. Forza Horizon 4 is a little less amazing
Dragon Ball Sparking! Zero will go on sale next October 11 on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC ahead of the 40th anniversary celebration of Dragon Ball. Pre-orders for the game include the immediate unlocking of six characters (including Gogeta and Broly from Dragon Ball Super: Broly), but it doesn’t stop there: Bandai Namco’s first Fighters Pass will add 20 more characters from Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero, Dragon Ball GT, and even Dragon Ball Daima. Playing at least one match with every hero or villain in the game is going to be quite the challenge!
