The hype for Spike Chunsoft’s Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero! is at an all-time high as the game’s release date is right around the corner. There is a lot of anticipation for the game already, but producer Jun Furutani has revealed one more gameplay element that will make Episode Battles much more exciting.
Furutani explained that battles in this mode could potentially branch out into different things. Spike Chunsoft has put extra focus on making sure that different fights have different outcomes. However, some of them will return players back to the canonical route.
In a recent interview with IGN, producer of Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero!, Jun Furutani, talked about the concept of branching battles in Episode Battles that will deviate players from the canonical route. Furutani said,
We wanted to also focus on battles that could potentially branch out into different things. What if this guy defeated him, instead of losing to him? Like those kinds of battles. So yeah, that is something that we put extra focus on the branching fights.
We’ve seen Dragon Ball‘s story in many different forms of media, but what makes this game exciting is this neat feature that will allow players to see a different outcome. As Furutani explained, Spike Chunsoft has specifically focused on these “what if” scenarios.
Furutani further explained the idea, adding that some branching fights will bring players back to the canonical route, but Spike Chunsoft also made sure that some fights give players a completely different outcome,
Some branches might just go back to the actual canonical route again. For example – if you were to play the Goku episode battles, when you fight Raditz, there’s some smaller branches that have been there, but it takes you back to the canonical route. And obviously, after Raditz is Vegeta, and after Vegeta is Frieza – Some of them are just blips, I guess some of them kind of take you in a more different, very drastically different direction.
When asked if players would see any new fusions born in this game, Furutani chose to keep that information hidden, so players will have to wait until the game’s officially out. Leaks have confirmed that the game will feature a roster of over 180 characters, which will also include a new Goku variant from the upcoming Dragon Ball Daima series.
Developed by Spike Chunsoft and published by Bandai Namco Entertainment, Dragon Ball Sparking! Zero is releasing on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC on October 11th.
