The Success of Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero
Since its launch in October 2024, Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero has achieved remarkable success, surpassing three million sales on its very first day. This game marks the return of the beloved Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi series after a 15-year hiatus, much to the delight of long-time fans.
Respecting Dragon Ball Lore
Players have praised the game for its dedication to the rich lore of the Dragon Ball universe, with features like the Encyclopaedia Mode enhancing the immersive experience.
Challenges and Community Response
Despite the game’s success, some players faced challenges, particularly with the formidable Great Ape Vegeta boss fight, known for its random, relentless attacks and high damage output. Many players expressed frustration over its difficulty, especially early in the campaign. However, Bandai Namco reassured the community that it is perfectly acceptable to adjust the difficulty settings and progress through the game.
As anticipation builds for the “Hero of Justice” DLC, fans can look forward to new adventures and characters in the ever-expanding Dragon Ball universe.
