New gameplay and characters announced for new Dragon Ball Budokai Tenkaichi game

It has been a few months since Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero was announced. The game is still some ways off but we're slowly getting more gameplay, including a new showcase trailer featuring 11 new confirmed characters. 

During the latest gameplay showcase, we get confirmation of fan favourite characters, as well as some niche characters that show the developer's commitment to an expansive roster, as is tradition for the Budokai Tenkaichi games. While not called ‘Budokai Tenkaichi' in the west, this game is indeed the new Budokai Tenkaichi game that was teased over a year ago.

For convenience, the full list of newly confirmed characters can be found below:

  • Super Trunks
  • Master Roshi, Max Power
  • Nappa
  • Burter
  • Jeice
  • Super Saiyan Broly (Full Power)
  • Hit
  • Super Saiyan Kale (Berserk)
  • Toppo
  • Dyspo
  • Kakunsa

Alongside this, we get a sneak peek at some new battle mechanics, including the Revenge Counter and Vanishing Assaults.

Unfortunately, Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero does not have a release date yet but it is expected to release later this year for PC, Xbox Series X/S and PS5.

KitGuru Says: I played all of the Dragon Ball Budokai and Tenkaichi games when I was younger, so I'm very much looking forward to this. Hopefully the full roster can live up to the standards set by its predecessors.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
