Summary
A newDragon Ball: Sparking Zerotrailer has revealed some of the fusion characters playable in the roster, along with gameplay of the team battles. The new trailer is focused onthe fusion characters fromDragon Ball ZandSuper, including both iconic combinations of Goku and Vegeta, Goten and Trunks, Kale and Caulifla, along with Zamasu.
In previous games likeDragon Ball FighterZandXenoverse 2,Fusion as a mechanic was excluded, but the characters were kept around in the roster, usually as a separate character from their constituents. Fans eagerly anticipatingDragon Ball: Sparking Zero’s release have been wanting the fusion mechanics from the classicBudokai Tenkaichiseries to make a return. Early scans confirmed that Gotenks and Kefla were part of the roster, along with the return of team battles and mid-battle fusions. A new trailer released by Bandai Namco focuses on some of the fighting game’s playable fusion characters.
The new “Fused Warriors” trailer starts with a quick team battle of Caulifla and Kale taking on Goten and Trunks, who later transform into their Super Saiyan forms and fire their iconic energy blasts. The trailer also shows how a player’s teammate can assist in an attack, as Trunks and Caulifla jump in and power up their partner’s attack during a beam struggle. Goten and Trunks fuse into Gotenks, while Caulifla and Kale fuse into Kefla. Following a brief demonstration of their special moves, the trailer revealsthe fusions of Goku and Vegeta, Gogeta and Vegito, are playable as well.
Another fusion character fromDragon Ball Super, Fused Zamasu, was confirmed to be playable in his normal and Half-Corrupted state. As Fused Zamasu is the combination of Future Zamasu and Goku Black, it’s safe to say that these two villains will also be part of the game’s roster. The versions ofGogeta and Vegitoin this trailer also hail fromDragon Ball Super, meaning they can transform into Super Saiyan and Super Saiyan Blue. The moves and techniques the characters use are also modeled after how they look in the anime.
