Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero DLC 1: Hero of Justice Adds 11 New Characters This Month
ign.comDragon Ball: Sparking! Zero will receive its first major downloadable content release on January 23, with the DLC 1: Hero of Justice pack adding 11 new heroes and more.
Bandai Namco announced the expansion with a trailer, below, and revealed the release date alongside word that anyone who buys the $34.99 Season Pass, which will eventually deliver three full DLC packs, can access it on January 20 at 3pm Pacific / 6pm Eastern / 11pm UK.
The pack of 11 new characters, which all arrive at once, includes Gohan (Super Hero), Gohan (Super Hero, Super Saiyan 2), Ultimate Gohan (Super Hero), Gohan (Beast), Piccolo (Super Hero), Piccolo (Potential Unlocked), Orange Piccolo, Orange Piccolo (Giant), Gamma, Gamma 2, and Cell Max.
The pack also comes with Piccolo's Red Ribbon soldier disguise as a costume and three custom battles. Bandai Namco also teased "that's not all" but didn't say what other extras fans can expect.
Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero proved incredibly successful for the publisher, surpassing three million sales in a single day. It became the first sequel to the beloved Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi series in 15 years when it launched in October 2024.
Fans of the series immediately fell for its respect of Dragon Ball lore, through features such as the Encyclopaedia Mode.
They didn't even get mad when one fight proved unbelievably difficult at launch, as Great Ape Vegeta had the coveted combination of random, unrelenting, and rapid attacks that all do big damage. Players were pulling their hair out at its difficulty and placement relatively early on in the game's campaign, though Bandai Namco assured them it's okay to lower the difficulty and move on.
