Dragon Ball Sparking Zero expands its content with new DLC in 2026

During the official presentation, several characters were confirmed to arrive this summer as part of the new downloadable content. Among them are Bardock Super Saiyan, Super Android 17, and Great King Piccolo, three additions that have been highly anticipated by fans of the saga.

Additionally, the arrival of young Gohan with the orange gi was announced, accompanied by a final technique inspired directly by the Bojack Unbound movie. This is joined by a new Ultimate combination of Goku and Vegeta, in which both characters execute a Kamehameha and a Galick Cannon together.

But the trailer hid more than it seemed at first glance.

Characters that will arrive via DLC

In addition to those already announced, the footage itself contains clear references to the following fighters:

• Bardock Super Saiyan

• Super Android 17

• Great King Piccolo

• Taobaibai

• Grandpa Gohan

• Devilman

• Zangya

• Paikuhan

• Champa

Everything points to these characters being part of the upcoming Season Pass, which is shaping up to be one of the most comprehensive to date within the franchise.

New stages, costumes, and special techniques

The content won’t be limited to characters. Other things that have been detected include:

• New stage: Kame House

• New costume: young Gohan with Goku’s gi

• New final techniques:

  • Gohan’s final blow against Bojack

  • Kamehameha + Galick Cannon combined

This is in addition to the game having recently received the Mission 100 mode, available for free through the latest update, reinforcing the single-player content without additional cost.

With everything shown and hinted at, it’s clear that Dragon Ball Sparking Zero will continue to grow steadily throughout 2026, combining ambitious paid DLC with free updates that keep the community’s interest alive.
