Dragon Ball Sparking Zero Special Maneuvers
How to Transform in Dragon Ball Sparking Zero?
Characters from the DBZ series are known for their transformations, and players can relive these transformations during intense battles in Dragon Ball Sparking Zero. Players must press ‘Up’ to transform on the D-Pad and select the desired transformation with Square/X, Triangle/Y, X/A or ⭘/B. The transformation will cost one Skill Count but will also improve your character’s stats.
How to Fuse in Dragon Ball Sparking Zero?
Fusion is a phenomenon in the Dragon Ball verse where two fighters merge into one to make a powerful fighter. Fusion in Dragon Ball Sparking Zero can only be performed when two characters that can fuse are on the team. To perform Fusion, press ‘Up’ on the D-Pad to open the Transformation menu and switch to the Fusion panel with L1/LB or R1/RB. Once fused, the two characters will be replaced by a single fused character that can’t be split again.

How to Enter Sparking! Mode
Sparking! Mode is the newest Special Maneuver with Dragon Ball Sparking Zero.
