As Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero players either learn the game's systems for the first time or become reacquainted with the classic Budokai Tenkaichi techniques, one new mechanic is gaining plenty of extra praise. It wouldn't be a Dragon Ball game without the ability to counter enemy moves, setting the stage for a dramatic switch-up that could turn the fight on its head. While such an action is exciting in its own right, Sparking! Zero has gone the extra mile to give players the anime brawls they've come to love.
Over on Reddit, user Global-Tax7862 shared an impressive clip that highlights the Perception mechanic in action as their character, Goku, briefly pauses the fight against Jiren to catch the enemy's punch and hit them away.
The brief scene of the fighters, when the counter is executed, is incredibly stylish, perfectly capturing the drama fans have come to associate with Dragon Ball's over-the-top battles. A new addition to the franchise, Super Perception allows players to pre-emptively counter-attack, nullifying most physical moves and even Ki-Blasts; when performed correctly, it results in an animation that's almost a reward in its own right.
