Dragon Ball Sparking! Zero Coming to Nintendo Switch 2, Says Saudi Ratings Board

Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero has been rated for the Nintendo Switch 2, hinting at an upcoming release on the new console, despite no official announcement from the developers. While fans eagerly await confirmation, a now-deleted tweet from the Saudi General Authority of Media Regulation, shared on the Gaming Leaks and Rumours subreddit, has already given us a sneak peek.

"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," the tweet stated before being removed. It also confirmed that the game had secured a 12+ rating.

Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero elevates the beloved gameplay of the Budokai Tenkaichi series, offering an extensive roster of characters with their unique abilities, transformations, and techniques. This game promises to deliver an exhilarating experience, drawing fans deeper into the world of Akira Toriyama's iconic anime and manga.

In our IGN Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero review, we awarded it a 7/10, describing it as "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."

Pre-orders for the Nintendo Switch 2 opened on April 24, priced at $449.99, and the response was overwhelming, as expected. On the same day, Nintendo issued a warning to U.S. customers who pre-ordered from the My Nintendo Store, stating that release date delivery could not be guaranteed due to high demand.
