Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero Nails It All: But Fumbles On Bringing In One Of The Best Outfit Goku And Vegeta Have Ever Wore

The much-anticipated Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero was officially released on October 11th, and it has since won the hearts of fans and critics alike. With its dazzling visuals, dynamic combat system with new mechanics, and diverse roster of characters, the game has sold millions of copies within days of its release. It has also cemented its place as a major hit in the Dragon Ball video game franchise.

However, while the game was able to deliver on nearly every front, players feel that there’s still one major aspect that has been notably absent: the customization options for various characters, particularly the outfits worn by Goku and Vegeta (the blue and green jackets respectively) in the beloved Dragon Ball Super: Broly movie, released in 2018.

Fans Demand More Customization Options in Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero

From the moment Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero was announced, the excitement was palpable. Players were already speculating about the game’s roster, its mechanics, and its various customization options. And for the most part, Sparking Zero delivered exactly that.

The game’s visuals push the limits, making the battles feel more intense and cinematic. The character models are meticulously designed, capturing the essence of each fighter. The combat system is fluid and rewarding, offering players a true sense of power scale when executing the signature moves of their favorite Z Fighters.

However, there is one glaring issue that has left fans scratching their heads: the variety in customization, especially from the Dragon Ball Super: Broly movie. Since the launch, players have been vocal about the omission of one of the most unique and iconic outfits worn by both Goku and Vegeta: The Blue and Green SAB jackets. While these jackets were not built for battle, they brought a fresh new look for both characters.

Players are stunned by this omission as many characters are taken from this movie.

That’s a great question considering the fact they based a lot of assets in the game off of this movie.

Some are speculating that they were not battle gear so that’s why.

Because they took them off before they fought and sparking is a fighting game lol

The excitement and frustration among the community show that players are immersed in the game. However, they still are annoyed that various outfits from the various movies and Sereis are still not available in the game (Piccolo’s outfit from the original series, Gohan’s various outfits, etc the list goes on).

Fans Hope to See More Outfits in Future Updates

Despite the current disappointment, there’s still hope for fans who are hoping to see Goku and Vegeta in their Dragon Ball Super: Broly movie outfits. Many are speculating various reasons behind the omission of various outfits in the game.

One possibility is that the development team may have simply run out of time. The game had very high expectations from the start so it’s possible that developers prioritized other features, such as refining the combat mechanics or finalizing the character roster, over the inclusion of new outfits.

The other possibility is that these outfits might be planned for future downloadable content or a special pack, allowing players to purchase or unlock them in the months to come. These are still speculation but with so much debate regarding the customization, it’s hard to overlook the misstep.

In the end, as players are enjoying the battle mechanics, they are still annoyed that their favorite outfit is still not present in the game. They are hoping Sparking Zero will continue to release new content in future updates, hopefully alongside their favorite outfit.
