Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero Finally Introduces Ultimate Gohan as a Transformation

The reveal trailer for the Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero Super: Super Hero DLC pack has confirmed an exciting update—Ultimate Gohan is now a transformation rather than a standalone character.While Sparking Zero boasts an impressive roster covering nearly every era of Dragon Ball, some fans have grown weary of its handling of certain forms. One long-standing issue has been the game’s tendency to treat specific transformations as separate characters, preventing players from transitioning naturally between forms. Examples like Goku’s Ultra Instinct Sign and Mastered forms, as well as the absence of fan-favorites like Super Saiyan Rage Trunks, highlight this frustration. However, perhaps the most notable oversight has been Ultimate Gohan, a transformation widely recognized in Dragon Ball media but previously treated as a standalone fighter in the game.
