Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero is proving itself to be a gift that keeps giving for all fans of the iconic anime worldwide as the popular beat-em-up will receive it’s biggest and most ambitious expansion ever with the upcoming Super-Limit Breaking Neo DLC which is going to add over 30 new playable characters, whole new stages, new customization options and many more into the game. The huge incoming additions will surely help inject new lease of life in Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero in more ways than one when it comes out sometimes in summer this year which means the DLC will be out in the next two to three months.
As for the new characters, joining the already massive roster of Sparking Zero are several popular ones such as Pikkon, Super Android 17, GT Vegeta, Nuova Shenron, Uub (Kid), King Vegeta, Trunks (GT), King Piccolo as well as some obscure ones including Grandpa Gohan, Mercenary Tao, Champa, Bardock Super Saiyan among others. All the new characters, combined with the earlier ones, will allow players to set up their dream fights as they will have the entire Dragon Ball sandbox at their fingertips which will also add another layer of replayability into the game.
There’s also four new stages designed to take your Dragon Ball power fantasy fights to whole new levels (literally) and they are: Kami’s Palace, Planet Vegeta Stratosphere and more, complete with their unique environmental details, interactivity and even hazards.
The upcoming DLC also brings over 20 new outfits to choose from which will help make your overall experience feel even more authentic and complete.
However, the best part of the Super Limit Breaking Neo DLC is the single player-based, ‘Limit Breaker Journey’ mode that provides whole new branching narrative challenges where players can unlock new rewards, character upgrades and many more.
And there’s also another mode named ‘Survival’ which is kind of an endurance, endless-waves type of gameplay mode with several variants such as ‘Round Robin Battle’ where you take on a total of 208 fighters and ‘Deathmatch Battle’ where the goal is to survive till all of your allies are eliminated. These extended, newer gameplay modes are great for players who’ve beaten everything there is in Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero and are hungry for more challenges.
Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero came out on 7th October 2024 for Playstation 5, Xbox Series X|S and PC and was released on both the Nintendo Switch and the Switch 2 on November 14 this year. The game received mostly positive reviews from the critics and quickly became a huge commercial success with well over five million units sold worldwide.
