Dragon Ball: Sparking! ZERO is a 3D fighting game. It is part of the Jump Force.

Gameplay

As is tradition, Dragon Ball: Sparking! ZERO is an arena brawler, in which the action is observed not from the side, but from behind the warrior's back (TPP view). The fights take place in full three dimensions on huge arenas, which give a great opportunity to show off for the superhumanly powerful martial artists. Beam collisions, dash attacks, and eye-catching moves – these and other techniques straight from the manga and anime (and previous installments in the Budokai Tenkaichi series) are utilized to their full potential during duels.
