Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero Sales Reach 3 Million in First 24 Hours of Launch

As a seasoned Dragon Ball fan with over two decades of passion for this iconic series under my belt, I must say that witnessing the resurgence of the Budokai Tenkaichi franchise has been nothing short of exhilarating! The sales figures of Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero are astounding, and it’s a testament to the enduring love fans have for this franchise.


As a passionate fan myself, it’s clear that the anticipation among Dragon Ball enthusiasts for a fresh installment in the Budokai Tenkaichi series has been palpable. The exciting release of Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero has truly taken us by storm, managing to sell an incredible three million units within its first day on the market!

Bandai Namco Entertainment recently revealed impressive sales figures for Sparking! Zero in a press release, but did not specify how many copies were sold on each platform. On Steam alone, the game has peaked with 120,000 concurrent players, though this doesn’t account for purchases made through other retailers. It’s likely that console versions have sold more units, but since Sony and Microsoft typically keep sales numbers private, we may never know the exact figures. However, since the announced figure is only for the first 24 hours, it’s safe to assume that the total number of sales will increase significantly by the time this article is published, as an additional four days would have added to the total count.

What Was the Last Dragon Ball Budokai Tenkaichi Game Before Sparking Zero?

In a new twist, Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero is the newest addition to the Budokai Tenkaichi series, a role it took up last with Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 3 in 2007. The series had a brief resurgence with Dragon Ball Z: Tenkaichi Tag Team, released for the PlayStation Portable in 2010, but otherwise has been largely quiet since then.

If you’re unsure if you should hop on the Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero train or not, take a peek at Game Rant’s review. They say that while Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero isn’t a flawless follow-up to Budokai Tenkaichi 3, it has effectively rekindled its essence. You can see the hard work even in the places where Sparking Zero falters, and by focusing on the main gameplay, aesthetics, and advancement, they’ve managed to achieve significant success.

Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero has been launched on October 11 and can be purchased right away for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, or PC.
