Revealed today, Bandai Namco and Spike Chunsoft will release Dragon Ball Sparking! Zero Super Limi Breaking NEO this summer.
The Dragon Ball Games Battle Hour 2026 revealed new projects, including the new expansion for Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero. The DLC was revealed earlier this year, before being officially announced today.
The expansion adds 30 new fighters, including King Vegeta, Pikkon, GT Trunk, and GT Vegeta, plus many more. We also see new costumes like Goku’s End of Z outfit, Gohan’s school outfit, and more, as well as new items, new Super Attacks, and a new game mode.
The four stages shown were:
- Kami’s Palace
- Kame House
- Bitter Tundra
- Stratosphere (Planet Vegeta) and Stratosphere (Earth)
The new game mode allows you to choose from three options. The first is to pick the map, then the battle/event/ and finally level up your character, which shows Goku increasing SP by 10. It seems a bit like a roguelike experience at first glance, which sounds exciting.
It was also revealed that a new battle system is in place, designed for “fiercer, more intense battles.” Dragon Ball Sparking! Zero Super Limi Breaking NEO adds Chain Blasts to follow up with an ally’s special move and also Sparking! Boost.
In our review for Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero, we said it, “is a fantastic return for a beloved series. The roster is massive, and the action is loud and satisfying, with enough modes to keep any fan busy. While not everything is finely tuned or balanced, it retains the heart and energy of the anime and the original games. Some things, like the overall flow between fights and menus, need work. It may not be for everyone, with the campaign difficulty and lack of overall balance enough to turn some away, but I’m having an absolute blast with Sparking! Zero because it is a dream come true.”
