Dragon Ball Sparking Zero beats Black Ops 6 in PlayStation and Steam pre-orders, sparking excitement for its October 11, 2024 release. The game’s popularity marks a shift in anime-based games.
BollywoodFever: After more than a decade, the Budokai Tenkaichi series is making a massive comeback with Dragon Ball Sparking Zero, which is already surpassing expectations with its robust character roster, game modes, and arenas. The hype surrounding the game’s release is so intense that Sparking Zero has overtaken Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 in pre-orders on multiple platforms.
Sparking Zero Outpaces Black Ops 6 on PlayStation Pre-Orders
According to reports shared on X (formerly Twitter) by DrLove, all three editions of Sparking Zero are outpacing Black Ops 6 in pre-orders on PlayStation. This trend has been confirmed across multiple regions on the PSN, with Sparking Zero generating more excitement than the latest installment of Call of Duty.
Despite Black Ops 6 promising an overhauled gameplay experience and new features for the Call of Duty franchise, the allure of returning to the Dragon Ball universe seems to be winning fans over. The excitement was palpable on X, with users celebrating the news: “All editions are insane; this game will actually do huge numbers,” one wrote. Another added, “This is a win for Dragon Ball and anime-based games.”
Sparking Zero Dominates on Steam Pre-Orders
The hype isn’t limited to PlayStation, as Sparking Zero is also leading pre-orders on Steam, currently ranked number 3 on the top 100 selling games in the US. In contrast, Black Ops 6 is trailing far behind, sitting at number 62. However, since Black Ops 6 will be free for Xbox Game Pass subscribers, gauging the full impact of its pre-orders across platforms is more challenging.
Shifting Tides in Anime-Based Gaming
While Dragon Ball has historically seen success in the video game world, many other anime franchises have struggled to replicate this level of anticipation. Sparking Zero’s success in outpacing a juggernaut like Call of Duty signals a potential shift in the gaming landscape, opening the door for other anime franchises to break into the industry.
For those eager to join the excitement, Dragon Ball Sparking Zero will be released on October 11, 2024, and will be available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series S/X, and PC.
