The latest trailer for Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero has seemingly confirmed that certain characters won't be able to fly, which was the case in previous Budokai Tenkaichi games.
Last week was a big moment for Dragon Ball Z fans, as we finally got our best look yet at how Sparking Zero is going to play, complete with battle damaged characters, spectacular beam clashes, and a variety of new mechanics that make the next Budokai Tenkaichi look like it's taken some notes from Raging Blast of all games.
