There has been a lot of anticipation surrounding its release and fans are super excited to see the fighting techniques in the new game. However, there have been speculations made by some fans concerning one fighting feature they want to see, which was a part of the earlier Xenoverse series. Unfortunately, in the Sparking Zero universe, there isn’t a place for it.

However, their ideas were soon dismissed by a revelation from another user that shed light on the fact that the techniques mentioned are from the Xenoverse and things will be a little different. They said:

The Xenoverse system was a unique way to give characters new moves but people have gotten used to the OG format and do not wish to see the former make a comeback. The fighting technique mentioned by jesussr87 raises further questions about what to expect in the latest Dragon Ball game and how different it would be from the rest of the franchise.

Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero has a similar battle system of one vs one 3D battle formula, established by its predecessors. This system allows players to enjoy the freedom of moving freely in all 3 dimensions and increases the scope for many battle techniques to flourish while making players feel truly immersed in its world and characters.

PlayStation released the first look at the battle training mode, which showcases some of the abilities players will be using in the game.

The battle training mode not only takes you through the basic techniques but also walks you through some of the more advanced skill moves, including getting into Sparking mode after hitting a combo.

Players from all around the world are super excited for Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero’s release in October and there has never been a better time to enjoy the game than now with the inclusion of enhanced gameplay and graphics that today’s technology has to offer.
