The new game of Dragon Ball looks like the true dream of every fan. There are countless characters and an incredible amount of fan service from the various series of the cult anime. However, one villain is missing, even though he is one of the most important adversaries.
Which character is it? On October 11, 2024, it will finally be here. Dragon Ball Sparking! ZERO will be released, and fans of the anime can fight with 182 characters from all series. Dragon Ball GT is also included and features fan favorites like Super Saiyan 4 Gogeta and Omega Shenlong, important fan favorites of the community.
But an important villain is missing: Super 17.
The powerful cyborg was an essential villain in one of the arcs in Dragon Ball GT and has also appeared in many other games. Many fans are disappointed that he seems to be missing in the new game.
MeinMMO editor Jasmin has already been able to play the new game and is thrilled: With Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero, I feel like I’m 12 again; it reminds me of the good times with Super Smash Bros.
Super 17 gave Son Goku a run for his money
Who is Super 17? In hell, scientist Dr. Gero, who created the cyborgs, met Dr. Mu, who created the villain Baby
in Dragon Ball GT. Dr. Mu created a copy of C17. The two cyborgs of the scientists fought against the heroes and fused into Super 17, an improved form of the cyborg.
He sees himself as the ultimate cyborg who wants to defeat Super Saiyan 4 Goku. The two had a fierce battle after the cyborg had easily defeated the other warriors. Ultimately, Goku defeated him after a hard-fought battle.
The villain is a fan favorite that many were looking forward to in the new game. However, fans are unsatisfied because, according to the GT trailer, it is known that the series is represented, but not in the form of the cyborg.
On platforms like reddit, players expressed their displeasure. Especially the point that he is missing as a major antagonist from GT is puzzling for many. After all, Baby and Omega Shenlong made it into the game as well. Nevertheless, some players are hopeful that he might return as DLC.
Super 17 is not the only one missing. Dragon Ball Sparking! Zero is the successor to the Budokai Tenkaichi series and offers a gigantic number of characters. However, apart from Super 17, other previous characters are also missing.
This includes characters like Ice Shenlong, King Vegeta, Cyborg 8, or Devil Man. Especially Devil Man would be an interesting character, as he is quite powerful: Son Goku fought against a strong opponent in Dragon Ball, who would be useful as a secret weapon
