Sparking Zero PS5 is the PlayStation 5 release of Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero, Bandai Namco’s 3D arena fighter developed by Spike Chunsoft, the studio PlayStation credits with the original Budokai Tenkaichi series. PlayStation describes a roster of more than 180 fighters drawn from Dragon Ball Z, Dragon Ball Super, Dragon Ball GT and more, fighting in high-speed 3D battles across arenas that break apart as the fight escalates. This listing is the standard edition on a physical PS5 disc.

How Sparking Zero PS5 Plays
The fighting in Sparking Zero PS5 happens in open 3D space rather than on a two-dimensional side-on lane. PlayStation’s own description lists beam clashes, rush attacks, movements “too quick for the eyes to see” and planet-razing ultimate attacks, with the camera following two fighters around a full arena. You close distance, fly, dash behind an opponent and trade blows in the air, which is closer to how fights look in the anime than a traditional 2D fighter can manage.
The arenas react to what you do. According to PlayStation, the environment responds when you transform or unleash your most devastating attacks, and Bandai Namco describes arenas that crumble as the battle rages on. A fight that starts on open ground can end in a crater, and that sense of escalation is a large part of the appeal.
A Roster of More Than 180 Fighters
The headline number for Sparking Zero PS5 is the roster: more than 180 fighters, according to PlayStation, drawn from Dragon Ball Z, Dragon Ball Super, Dragon Ball GT and more. Each character carries their own signature abilities, transformations and techniques, so the choice of fighter changes how a match is played, not only how it looks.
For a fan, that breadth is the main reason to buy. Characters from different eras of the series share one game, which makes it possible to set up the match-ups people have argued about for years. The figure quoted here is for the base game; Bandai Namco adds further characters through paid content, covered in the editions section below.
Spike Chunsoft, Unreal Engine 5 and PS5 Features
PlayStation names Spike Chunsoft as the developer and notes that the studio made the original Budokai Tenkaichi series, which is the line Sparking Zero PS5 continues. The game is built on Unreal Engine 5.
On the PS5 side, PlayStation lists DualSense haptic feedback that matches the direction in which attacks or destructive effects are taking place, 3D audio when you use compatible stereo headphones, and play-while-downloading support. Bandai Namco and PlayStation do not publish a resolution or frame-rate figure for the PS5 version on the pages we checked, so we do not quote one.
Players, Online Play and Arabic Support
Sparking Zero PS5 supports one or two players offline on the same console, according to PlayStation’s UAE store page, and up to two players online. Online play is optional and requires a PlayStation Plus subscription, which is sold separately. Everything offline, including local matches against a friend, works without it.
On languages, the same PlayStation UAE page lists English and Japanese voices, and on-screen text in Arabic, English, French, German, Italian, Polish, Russian and Spanish. Arabic menus and subtitles make the story battles easier to follow for Arabic-speaking players. There is no Arabic voice track.
Which Edition Is This?
This is the standard edition of Sparking Zero PS5: the base game on disc, rated PEGI 12 on the box. Bandai Namco sells extra content separately. Its Super Limit-Breaking NEO expansion adds new playable characters, new customisation, new stages and a Solo Mode.
The Legendary Edition bundles the game with that expansion, a Season Pass of four packs – including Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero and Dragon Ball DAIMA content with more than 20 playable characters – and an Ultimate Upgrade Pack. None of that is in this box. If you want it later, it is bought digitally on the PlayStation Store.
Who This Is Not For
Players who want Arabic voice acting: the game speaks English or Japanese only, with Arabic available as on-screen text. Players who expect the NEO expansion or Season Pass characters in the box will be disappointed, because the standard edition of Sparking Zero PS5 contains the base game only.
Anyone planning online matches needs a PlayStation Plus subscription on top of the game. And the disc needs a PS5 that can read discs: a PS5 Digital Edition cannot play it unless it has a compatible disc drive attached. Local play tops out at two players, so this is not a four-player party game.
