What are the Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero system requirements? The latest Dragon Ball fighting game is proving to be a hit on Steam already, and one reason behind this success might just be the ease with which you can get it running on older gaming PCs and laptops.

While having the best graphics card might make every bone-crunching battle look much prettier, it won’t do much for your performance. This is because, like many fighting games, Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero is capped at 60fps.

Here are the Dragon Ball: Sparkling Zero system requirements:

The Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero minimum requirements are similar, if not slightly lower, than most modern 3D games. An Nvidia GeForce GTX graphics card is listed, but rather than a 1060, 1660, or 1080, it’s the older 980 selected here. This GPU is still capable of decent 1080p performance in this game, and will even get you 60fps if you use the low graphical preset in Sparking Zero.

As for your processor, it’s a pair of six-core options listed in the requirements, the AMD Ryzen 2600 or Intel Core i5-9600K, both of which are a good few years old now.

As for the Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero recommended specs, there isn’t a huge jump up, with only an increase in graphical fidelity to be considered, given the aforementioned frame rate cap. The Nvidia GeForce RTX 2060, an entry-level, first-gen RTX card, is listed alongside the AMD Radeon RX Vega 64, a seven-year-old GPU that was underwhelming when it came out, showing that Sparking Zero will run on fairly old AMD hardware. Comparatively, the Vega 64 performs similarly to the Radeon RX 5700 and GTX 1080.

The Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero download size sits at just 26GB, and no SSD is recommended, although I highly recommend using one of the best SSDs for gaming even when one isn’t listed in the official requirements.

If you’re jumping into this anime fighting game, you’re going to want to familiarize yourself with the Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero roster, and then learn how to unlock all characters, which might take some time given that there are over 180 of them.
