"Sparking! ZERO" Official Announcement, Pre-, & Post-Release Discussion Thread

[Grimlock]

Guess they are going to reveal everyone now.

They haven't announced anyone one couldn't expecting so far, but maybe there are a few surprises in this one. A confirmation on Super Saiyan Bardock and/or his Time Breaker outift would be nice too.

19/20 days left until the game releases

I remember obsessing over the idea of Raging Blast 3 when I was a kid, I know this isn't necessarily Raging Blast 3 by Nostal Treevax but it's so close it makes me feel fulfilled after all these years.

Spoiler:

^ Superior character select screen to Sparking Zero honestly, I hope they change the select screen post launch.

In theory we could get all of these characters via DLC, not sure about the Neko Majin characters and movie henchmen though.

Yeah theres no contest I don't get why we have to get such a sh*t character select screen.

Did you see or read about the leaks?

MOUNTAIN ROAD CONFIRMED

[Mr Baggins]

Depending on whether Daima Goku counts as part of the 182 number (he's supposedly the pre-order bonus), we could still have one more character unaccounted for by the leak, which skipped some rows in the video.

Jacobros rise up!

[GTx10]

Any Daima Goku lines leaked whether JPN or ENG?

[Yuji]

Are the UIs their own Goku? I haven't seen any footage of Super Goku going UI. Do we start with Sign as its own slot?

Limiting each character to 4 forms sounds like bad game design. They could have just included a form selection option before every battle so you can customize which forms go on the transformation wheel if they thought choosing from 5+ forms was too complicated.

They should have just made one Goku and then you can choose "sub gokus or different outfits whichever sounds better to you" with their own moveset, transformations etc...

Even the character select screen would look much cleaner and better.

That way you could have a "DB Super goku" with god form and blue form... and then another variant (outfit) with kaioken in blue form... another variant with added UI and Mastered UI apart from the god forms etc...

Guess I saw a thing or two, but all I want to know and see is if characters I'm not expecting to appear will be there.

I'm REALLY hoping we at least get King Piccolo or some other DB character revealed tomorrow Kid Goku cant just be the only playable DB character as Sonny Strait said he was voicing 3 unique characters with one being Krillin, second one Bardock and the third one General Blue(?). I don't think its Giru as he doesn't have any lines , no?

People hoping for surprises should temper their expectations by a LOT.

We have confirmed 182 characters. And based on calculations that some people performed, the chances of getting a character we do not know (for us who saw the leaks and the official reveals) are slim to none.

Based on the leaks there's a chance these will be dlc but not for launch I'd say.

[Rinsankajugin]

Just a heads up, recent V-Jump scans do confirm that the roster is 182, so everything in that leak should be base game. That means when Season 1 of the DLC drops, the roster will go beyond 200. Also, V-Jump has a code that unlocks Future Gohan, Bardock (and his OVA outfit), a V-Jump aura accessory, and a V-Jump item that boosts ultimates and has normal attacks automatically charge ki.

DRAGON BALL: Sparking! Zero - Full Roster Reveal

[Jord]

The number of arenas sucks.
No ice stage, no space stage, no Kami's Lookout stage.
They should have canned the destructive stages. The cutscenes and destruction itself wear out fast.

[Yuji]

Kid Goku is just snuck in there as an afterthought in-between the two montages and they used regular Piccolo for the opponent.

[Yuji]

Story mode characters are Goku, Vegeta, Piccolo, Gohan, Future Trunks, Freeza... Goku Black and Jiren.

I called it on Freeza but what the hell are Goku Black and Jiren doing there? I get they're popular characters and antagonists therefore offering a different side but they're limited to one arc, it's bound to get monotonous to do 5+ fights on the same stage.

Seems like some short bonus story episodes. It's a fun idea.

Now the stages are unforgivable. All these action figures and barely any arenas to have them play on.

We needed at bare minimum Beerus planet, Ice stage, 6 vs 7 tournament and a few more returning stages.
