Dragon Ball: Sparking Zeroalso known as Budokai Tenkaichi 4, was officially revealed during The Game Awards 2023, last Thursday (7), with its first gameplay after months without information. With this, a sad observation also came to light: the game will not feature the long-awaited dubbing in Brazilian Portugueseaccording to its official page on the Steam platform, on PC.
Although the Dragon Ball franchise is very iconic, especially due to its localization in our language, fans have never received an officially dubbed game with the classic cast, clashing with the practice adopted by the publisher, Bandai Namco, with other anime-inspired games — including Naruto and Knights of the Zodiac.
Therefore, users created an online petition to try to convince the publisher of the importance of launching Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero dubbed into Brazilian Portuguese, in the hope that this will be the first fully localized game in the series. Until the closing of this article, the petition already has more than 26 thousand names.
Per hour, It is only confirmed that the game will support subtitles in Brazilian Portuguese, including its user interface. The official Steam page also suggests that the game may not include local multiplayer, offering only single-player and online multiplayer modes.
It is worth noting that Bandai Namco has not yet commented, in an official tone, on the possibility of the game being released with dubbing in Brazilian Portuguese, all that remains is to wait.
More details from Sparking Zero
Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero continues the cult formula of the franchise that marked the PlayStation 2 generation in the mid-2000s. The game is being produced in Unreal Engine 5 and will feature versions for PC (Steam), PlayStation 5, Xbox Series S and Xbox Series X , still without a date or a defined release year.
Although Brazilian fans know the series as Budokai Tenkaichi, It is worth noting that Sparking was its original name in Japan. Therefore, Bandai Namco chose to universalize the title this time. The first gameplay video also shows that the game will be very faithful to its origins, with destructive scenarios and a third-person gameplay perspective, which values the freedom to fly through the scenarios.
It has also been confirmed that the game is under the care of Spike Chunsoft, which was the producer of the original games. More recently, she was also responsible for games like One Piece: Burning Blood e Jump Forcewhich divided opinions.
