One of Bandai Namco's most successful games: analyst talks about the stunning success of fighting game Dragon Ball: Sparking ZERO

Dragon Ball: Sparking! ZERO received huge popularity immediately after its release - in just the first 24 hours the sales of the game exceeded 3 million copies and still remain at a high level. Suddenly the game, which did not receive serious marketing support became one of the biggest successes of Japanese publisher Bandai Namco.

Here's What We Know

Authoritative analyst Mat Piscatella spoke about the phenomenal success of Dragon Ball: Sparking! ZERO. According to him, the fighting game has the highest demand among all games of the popular Dragon Ball franchise.

Moreover, Piscatella reported that Sparking! ZERO has become one of the best-selling games in Bandai Namco's history, behind only Elden Ring, Tekken 8 and "some other games." The analyst didn't specify which other projects we're talking about, but we dare to assume that the Dark Souls trilogy is definitely among them.

Piscatella finds it difficult to name the reason for such success, but assumes that it is connected not only with the general popularity of the franchise, but also with the fact that its global plot is quite large and branched and encourages Dragon Ball fans to actively get acquainted with each new game. And in the case of Sparking! ZERO, we should also mention the excellent technical execution.

Dragon Ball: Sparking! ZERO is available on PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series.
