Dragon Ball Sparking Zero to Feature 3 DLC Packs Post-Release, Crossplay Not Confirmed Due to Difficulties

While Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero already features a whopping 181 characters available at launch, there are still characters that can be added to make that number even bigger. As is the norm for fighting game these days, gamers can expect DLC packs to be part of Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero’s post-launch support.

This was confirmed by Producer Jun Furutani who gave the following quote when it comes to DLC content for the fighting game. “So in regards to the characters, they have plans to release three DLC packs [covering characters from] Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero, and from DAIMA…So there’s three packs total from those two [Dragon Ball] Super: Super Hero and DAIMA, split into three basically.”

I mean, the game getting DLC packs for new fighters is hardly earth-shattering news, as every fighting game released now does feature character packs as part of the expansions. Still, at least we know now there’s three planned, though there can be more released after that and it just depends whether players want it or not.

As for whether the game will feature crossplay, that can’t be answered by the devs for now due certain “difficulties.” According to Furutani, “One of those touchy subjects, that’s very difficult for him to explain. The short professional answer is, yeah, there’s a difficult that we have to go through to get cross play to work…So yeah, that’s where we stand right now. And as for your question about future, obviously we don’t know yet, but yeah.”

Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero releases October 11 on PS5, Xbox Series X|S and PC, and will feature 181 characters at launch, which you can check out the list here. If you’re planning on picking up the game, we listed the different editions and pre-order bonuses for your convenience.
