If the shenanigans that Dragon Ball: Sparking! ZERO’s Super Limit-Breaking NEO DLC allows us to pull off are anything like its launch trailer, we’re going to be thrilled.
It’s more cinematic, intended to showcase how faces both fresh and endearingly familiar enter the fray, bringing their finest skills and very agile moves against opponents determined to end the fight on their terms. We’d have liked to see more of the new Sparking Boost in action, perhaps through a quick glimpse at a gameplay clip, but with the expansion out now, we’re going to get to testing it out as soon as possible.
There are also new characters, including Super 17, Bardock, Vegeta (GT), False Super Saiyan Goku and Grandpa Gohan for starters along with four new stages (including Kami’s Lookout), customization options, and more. The new Solo Mode should keep fans busy, as you venture across a map and challenge powerful foes to upgrade your character, gaining new Battle Arts along the way.
That’s a lot of new stuff in a game that’s been pretty successful at bringing its inspirations to life in a format that absolutely works in its favor. Dragon Ball: Sparking! ZERO is available for Xbox Series X/S, PS5, PC, Nintendo Switch 2, and Nintendo Switch. Check out our review of the base game.
