Bandai Namco Tells Struggling Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero Players It's Okay to Lower the Difficulty

Bandai Namco has assured struggling Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero players that it's okay to lower the difficulty as waves are being wrecked by Great Ape Vegeta. The highly anticipated fighting arena game launched on October 8 for anyone who preordered (otherwise launching October 11) and, of all the many characters and arenas and challenges in the game, on is standing out above the rest.

UK (@BandaiNamcoUK) October 8, 2024 Great Ape Vegeta is a fight that comes relatively early on in the story and it's proving tough as nails for many players. The boss has the coveted combination of random, unrelenting, and rapid attacks that all do big damage, though it's perhaps his beam attack spamming that has players pulling their hair out most. Bandai Namco's UK X/Twitter account posted a gif of the attack with the caption "this monke got hands." Not long after, seemingly feeling sorry for those stuck on Great Ape Vegeta, the U.S. Bandai Namco account reassured players that "a win is a win," telling players to "lower difficulty and retry." A win is a win.

But if Great Ape Vegeta continues to prove a challenge throughout the full launch of Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero, an incoming update might tone him down a tad. The game is otherwise proving a hit with Dragon Ball fans, with many appreciating its evident love for the series through features like Encyclopaedia Mode. Those still on the fence can read IGN's review in progress ahead of a final verdict.
