Dragon Ball Sparking! Zero Coming to Nintendo Switch 2, Hints Saudi Ratings Board

Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero has been rated for the Nintendo Switch 2, hinting at its arrival on the new console before any official announcement. While we await confirmation that this game, inspired by Akira Toriyama's beloved anime and manga series, will indeed grace the Switch 2, a now-deleted tweet from the Saudi General Authority of Media Regulation, as noticed by the Gaming Leaks and Rumours subreddit, suggests otherwise.

"Experience the fighting action in the latest game Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero. Available on Nintendo Switch 2, featuring 3D battles and storylines that change based on your choices," the tweet stated before its removal, confirming a 12+ rating for the game.

Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero elevates the iconic gameplay of the Budokai Tenkaichi series, offering an expansive roster of playable characters, each equipped with unique abilities, transformations, and techniques.

In our IGN Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero review, we awarded it a 7/10, stating: "Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero is a final flash from the past, sometimes to a fault, but the feeling of traveling back to a simpler time when games didn’t have to be balanced or competitive to be fun is still a good one."

Nintendo Switch 2 pre-orders commenced on April 24, with the console priced at $449.99 — and they sold out quickly. On the same day, Nintendo warned U.S. customers who pre-ordered through the My Nintendo Store that release date delivery was not guaranteed due to high demand.
