Summary
- Sparking Zero’s first DLC pack, Hero of Justice, has just been made available for those who don’t own the season pass.
- This has revealed its price point to be $17.99, which a lot of fans don’t think is worth it.
- The reasons for this include the characters being too similar and the lack of bonus content like stages and costumes.
The Hero of Justice Pack for Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero has officially launched today for players without the season pass, but its pricing has left many fans unimpressed. When the game was first announced, one of the biggest questions fans had was whether it would include content from Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero, which had only recently debuted at the time. Unfortunately, as many feared, characters like Beast Gohan and Orange Piccolo were excluded from the base game and reserved for DLC instead, sparking criticism from the community.
The Hero of Justice DLC, initially released earlier this week for season pass holders, has now become available for all players as a standalone purchase. This exciting expansion introduces new playable characters, including the Super Hero forms of Gohan and Piccolo, along with the Gammas and Cell Max. However, as it transitions out of early access, many players have been surprised by its relatively high price point.
Sparking Zero’s Hero Of Justice Pack Costs $17.99 And Fans Aren’t Happy
The release of the Hero of Justice DLC pack has sparked debate among fans, primarily due to its $17.99 price tag for those without the season pass, as highlighted by Twitter user DBGameNews. When asked whether the DLC is worth the cost, the overwhelming response from the community has been negative.
A notable comment from Twitter user GamesCage_ summed up the sentiment, stating, “Absof***inglutely not bro LMAO,” and criticizing the DLC for its similarities between characters and the lack of additional stages, songs, and costumes. Other replies echoed this frustration, with fans agreeing that the content offered doesn’t justify the price.
The main criticism revolves around the limited content of the DLC, which focuses solely on the new characters. While Beast Gohan is a standout addition, many fans feel the lack of bonus features is a missed opportunity. Comparisons have been drawn to other games, such as Xenoverse 2, which has consistently included richer post-launch content. Fans argue that a more comprehensive offering is crucial for Sparking Zero to maintain its appeal.
Note
I’ve got the Sparking Zero season pass so I might be unfair to ask but I think the Hero of Justice DLC includes a bunch of great additions to the game, even if it’s lacking in bonus content.
Many fans suggest opting for the season pass, priced at $34.99, as it effectively makes one of the three DLC packs free. Without the season pass, purchasing Sparking Zero’s first wave of DLC individually could total approximately $53—nearly the price of the full game.
