Fans have been waiting for a high-caliber“Dragon Ball simulator”for years, and from what the trailers have shown,Sparking! ZERO promisesto more than meet that demand.

Past entries in theBudokai Tenkaichiseries, such asBudokai Tenkaichi 3, remain beloved primarily due to their vast character rosters. Still, the previous games have yet to reach this game’s rumored scale.

Perhaps this shouldn’t come as a surprise, considering the game also includes characters fromDragon Ball SuperandDragon Ball GTalongsideZand the original’s classics.

When you consider that even lesser-known characters like the Pride Troopers and the Shadow Dragons are expected to appear alongside iconic transformations like Ultra Instinct Goku and Super Saiyan 4 Gogeta, the roster’s sheer size starts to make a lot more sense.

Alongside the Roster news, a Goku Daima variant will soon be announced as part of the pre-order bonus. WithDragon Ball Daimaset to premiere relatively soon, the exclusive variant will undoubtedly provide a massive incentive for both long-time fans and newer audiences drawn to the upcoming anime.

The leaked box art for the PlayStation 5 has also provided a glimpse of some technical details that players should be aware of. One interesting tidbit that people found is the storage requirements; the box lists a minimum storage of 100 GB at the top, while the bottom reads 65 GB.

The discrepancy between the sizes most likely suggests post-launch content, such as DLCs or additional features, that may increase the storage requirements over time. So, ensure that your desired platform has that covered.

If you’re on the PC, make sure you get the recommended specs. Thisgame is an unbelievable stunner with its visuals, and anything less than the specified hardware will not give you the best experience.

Multiplayer options also vary, with one section of the packaging listing support for 2-8 network players, while another indicates 2-6. This difference either refers to different possible modes, such as large-scale team battles or just some platform template differences. There’s not much to worry about on this front.

Fans of previousDragon Balltitles will remember the fun of chaotic online brawls, and these new numbers suggest we may be in for something similar. Whatever the case may be, all these are just more pieces of information that confirm that theBudokai Tenkaichiseries has all but returned to form after a long and excruciating slumber.
