How to unlock characters

There are multiple ways to get more characters in Sparking Zero including:

  1. Buying them from the in-game Shop with Zeni
  2. Progressing in Episode Battle
  3. Completing Zen-Oh’s Orders
  4. Clearing Bonus Battles in Custom Battle mode, and offline World Tournaments
  5. Wish for a character with Super Shenron

It’s important to note that most characters become available to purchase in the shop, so simply playing the game to progress your Player Level and earn more Zeni to buy the fighters you want may be the quickest option.

In our experience, buying certain characters also automatically unlocks their transformations e.g. if you buy Future Gohan, his Super Saiyan form will be added to your roster too.

How to get more Zeni

There are multiple ways to earn more Zeni to buy characters in Sparking Zero but we’ve found the fastest methods are through:

  • Clearing Battles in Episode Battle
  • Challenges & missions
  • Summoning Shenron & Super Shenron

Summoning either Dragon will give you the option to Wish for more Zeni which automatically grants you a sizable chunk of the currency to spend on whatever you like.

For anyone with the Ultimate Edition of Sparking Zero, we’d recommend you take advantage of being able to Summon both dragons right away. You can use Shenron for extra Zeni, and Super Shenron to obtain Goku Black or Fused Zamasu (or just more Zeni if you’re not fussed about the characters).

Those are all the characters you can unlock in Dragon Ball Sparking Zero. For more on the game, check out how to transform, fuse & switch characters, how to Sonic sway & Deflect Beams, how to customize characters, and the DLC release schedule.
