Zero: \u201cWhat if?\u201d scenarios finally return and fans are loving it Bandai NamcoThe return of \u201cWhat if?\u201d scenarios in Dragon Ball Sparking! Zero has had fans screaming in excitement louder than a Saiyan powering up. Summer Game Fest dumped a wealth of information for Dragon Ball Sparking! Zero, including new gameplay and a release date of October 11. However, fans\u2019 primary excitement concerns a returning game mode from previous titles. Dragon Ball games have often found themselves in a rut plot-wise, retelling the same stories from Dragon Ball Z to exhaustion. The classic \u201cWhat If?\u201d feature returning to shake up the story is, to put it mildly, an easy win for Bandai Namco. \u201cWhat If?\u201d scenarios were once a staple of Dragon Ball games, mainly in the Budokai Tenkaichi games, where you would play as one of the villains, telling a new short story from their perspective. These non-canon scenarios often result in hilarious consequences, such as when Cell has a nightmare where he absorbs Krillin instead of the androids or when Frieza gets his wish on Namek with game show graphics flashing behind him, wearing an enormous grin. The feature has won previously unconvinced fans over, \u201cFather. Son. Final. Flash. If I wasn\u2019t sold already, I am now.\u201d This refers to the famous \u201cFather-Son Kamehameha\u201d that finished off Perfect Cell. However, one fan highlighted that more characters need to be added to maximize potential. \u201cWe need GT characters, and the \u2018super\u2019 or ascended forms as well\u2026 Need what if characters\u2026 Anyway, this will be an ELITE game. We are back.\u201d Another fan worried for Vegeta\u2019s sanity after one of the scenarios. \u201cThat Super Saiyan against Scouter Vegeta \/ Oozaru. That is surely going to shatter more pride than any DBZ episodes.\u201d Dragon Ball games have fallen into two categories. They either follow an original story, as was the case for DBZ: FighterZ, or stay accurate to the source material \u00e0 la DBZ: Kakarot. Confirmed \u201cWhat If\u201d scenarios from the trailer include Goku taking on Radtiz alone, Goku turning Super Sayian during his battle with Vegeta on Earth, and Vegeta and Trunks teaming up to take on Perfect Cell. Expect more as the fighting roster expands alongside more details of game modes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dragon Ball Sparking!
