The new Dragon Ball game could have a release date

The next Dragon Ball video game might already have a release date, according to a dataminer who searched the data on Namco’s website.

When information becomes public, it is impossible to hide it. It doesn’t matter if it is encrypted, buried deep in dozens of code, or seemingly inaccessible without the right keys. There will always be someone curious and knowledgeable enough to access its contents. That’s what happened to Bandai Namco, who may have discovered the release date of their biggest launch of the year.

A dataminer named SergioM3R says he has discovered the release date of Dragon Ball Sparking! Zero. Dating it for October 1, 2024, he claims that the information was in the code of the Bandai Namco website. Something he has offered evidence of.

According to screenshots of the website’s code, they have a list of all their own names by name, id, and release date. Dragon Ball Sparking! Zero would be released on October 1st according to this list, and to confirm it, there are the other titles. Because all the video games confirmed by Bandai Namco themselves appear there, with their confirmed release date, implying that the date is real.

All of this doesn’t mean that it can’t be a placeholder. An approximate date while they decide the exact day the game will be released. That’s why, although it’s possible that it won’t be released on October 1st itself, we should expect it around those dates. Probably a release in the last quarter of the year, already thinking about the holiday season.

Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero has a new trailer introducing 24 new characters… more or less

Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero has a new trailer introducing 24 new characters… more or less, because in reality, they are 24 forms of the same 2.

For many people, one of the big news of 2023 was the announcement of Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero. Being this the Japanese name of the well-known fighting video game franchise Dragon Ball: Budokai Tenkaichi, it is clear what we can expect from this new installment: a lot of different characters, an obscene amount of arenas, and a great fidelity in character designs. Maybe not the deepest combat system, but that’s what Dragon Ball FighterZ is for.

During the past Dragon Ball Games Battle Hours they presented us with the first characters from Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero. With the staggering number of 24 characters, they wanted to start off with a bang, offering us the widest possible glimpse. With a trick. Out of those 24, actually, all of them can be divided into two.

As shown in its spectacular trailer, the 24 characters are summarized in 11 versions of Goku and 13 versions of Vegeta. Something that is accompanied by the aforementioned trailer, which serves to show the different versions of each of them, but also a very dynamic and visually striking confrontation between these deadly enemies, eternal friends, and inseparable companions. Something that alleviates, a little, the fact that they have decided to start by showing 24 characters, when in reality there are only two.

The complete list of confirmed characters so far is as follows:

  •     Son Goku (Z – Start)
  •     Son Goku (Z – Intermediate)
  •     Son Goku (Z – Intermediate), Super Saiyan
  •     Son Goku (Z – Final)
  •     Son Goku (Z – Final), Super Saiyan
  •     Son Goku (Z – Final), Super Saiyan 2
  •     Son Goku (Z – Final), Super Saiyan 3
  •     Son Goku (Super)
  •     Son Goku (Z – Intermediate), Super Saiyan
  •     Son Goku (Super), Super Saiyan God
  •     Son Goku (Super), Super Saiyan Blue
  •     Vegeta (Z – Tracker)
  •     Great Ape Vegeta
  •     Vegeta (Z – Start)
  •     Vegeta (Z – Start), Super Saiyan
  •     Super Vegeta
  •     Vegeta (Z – Final)
  •     Vegeta (Z – Final), Super Saiyan
  •     Vegeta (Z – Final), Super Saiyan 2
  •     Majin Vegeta
  •     Vegeta (Super)
  •     Vegeta (Super), Super Saiyan
  •     Vegeta (Super), Super Saiyan God
  •     Vegeta (Super), Super Saiyan Blue

However, that’s not the only thing we’ve seen. Along with the trailer, they have shown an image that suggests that the complete roster would have over 120 characters. Less than in the last Budokai Tenkaichi, but still an immense roster. We will be able to enjoy it when it is released soon on PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series S, and Xbox Series X.
