Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero has turned out to be a certified hit for Bandai Namco and among Dragon Ball franchise fans. Despite launching relatively late in 2024, Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero broke sales records among Dragon Ball games and even became one of 2024’s best-selling titles. Bandai Namco plans to keep that momentum up by supporting the game with downloadable content, adding new playable characters, and recalling legendary fights from the franchise’s history. The game is also receiving various improvements via patches and updates to address outstanding fan complaints about the game’s online performance and address the persistent issue of match-quitting in the competitive scene.

Players who purchase the pack will also gain access to Piccolo’s Red Ribbon Army disguise, which he uses in the film to infiltrate the villainous organization.

The Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero DLC pack is included in the Sparking Zero Season Pass, which will also grant 72 hours early access to the Hero of Justice pack characters. The season pass will also grant access to the 2nd and 3rd DLC packs, which are expected to launch in the first half of 2025. Those two packs will be focused on adding Dragon Ball: Daima characters to the Sparking Zero roster, with Glorio and Mini Vegeta confirmed for the 2nd DLC pack. With so many characters set to join Sparking Zero‘s playable slate, dedicated Dragon Ball fans will have plenty to engage with throughout the rest of the year.
