Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero has been rated for the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2, hinting at its availability on the new console even before an official announcement. This exciting news comes despite the lack of confirmation from the game's developers about its release on the Switch 2. A now-deleted tweet from the Saudi General Authority of Media Regulation, which was shared on the Gaming Leaks and Rumours subreddit, inadvertently confirmed the game's rating and platform.
The tweet stated, "Experience the fighting action in the latest game Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero. Available on Nintendo Switch 2, featuring 3D battles and storylines that change based on your choices," before it was removed. It also mentioned that the game had secured a 12+ rating, adding to the anticipation among fans.
Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero elevates the legendary gameplay of the Budokai Tenkaichi series to new heights. It boasts "an incredible number" of playable characters, each with their own signature abilities, transformations, and techniques, making for a thrilling gaming experience.
In our IGN Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero review, we awarded it a 7/10, noting: "Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero is a final flash from the past, sometimes to a fault, but the feeling of traveling back to a simpler time when games didn’t have to be balanced or competitive to be fun is still a good one."
On another note, Nintendo Switch 2 pre-orders became available on April 24, priced at $449.99. The demand was exceptionally high, as expected, leading to Nintendo issuing a warning to U.S. customers who pre-ordered through the My Nintendo Store, stating that release date delivery was not guaranteed due to overwhelming demand.
