After months of speculation about a Switch 2 release for Dragon Ball: Sparking! ZERO thanks to being spotted on the ratings board for Saudi Arabia, Bandai Namco has now confirmed that the arena fighter is making its way to Nintendo Switch 1 and 2. The announcement was made with a trailer, which you can check out below.
Developed by Spike Chunsoft, those who pick the Switch version can update to the Switch 2 version, the latter offering higher resolutions and smoother frame rates, for free. The trailer does warn that some save data for players transferring their Switch copy of the game over the Switch 2 might not make it all the way. Game progress, unlocked characters and items can be transferred with no problems, thankfully. On the other hand, data from Battle Replays, Custom Battle: Edit Data, and Online Battle Records will not make the jump.
The Switch 2 version of Dragon Ball: Sparking! ZERO will be able to play online or offline multiplayer with other Switch 2 players only and doesn’t support cross-play with those on Switch 1. Dragon Ball: Sparking! ZERO launches on November 14th for Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2.
