In Dragon Ball Sparking Zero, the Episode battle mode allows you to enjoy some amazing storylines featuring your favorite characters.
In total, eight characters are present in the Episode battle mode, but two of them remain locked – Future Trunks and Jiren. Thankfully, you can unlock the paths for both by just playing the game. Doing so not only lets you play out their canonical storyline, but both also have alternate Sparking episodes present. Without wasting any time, let’s take a look at how you can unlock and play with Jiren and Future Trunks in the episode battle mode.
How to unlock Future Trunks and Jiren in Dragon Ball Sparking Zero’s episodes?
While unlocking Sparking episodes in certain cases can be quite difficult, getting access to Jiren and Future Trunks in Episode mode is easy.
To unlock episodes for both, you’ll need to play through Goku’s saga. To be more specific, you’ll have to end Universe Survival Arc to get access to Jiren’s episodes. Similarly, you’ll need to complete the Future Trunks Arc to unlock the episodes for Future Trunks. Both these tasks can be achieved in Chapter 7 of Goku’s Saga. Incidentally, you’ll always begin with Goku when starting Episode battle mode for the first time.
It took me close to two hours to unlock, but it can take less time if you finish your previous quests quicker (quite possibly, given my abilities as a Dragon Ball Sparking Zero player).
Between the two, Future Trunks’ saga is a lot more elaborate. He has more episodes for both Canon and Sparking. Jiren’s story is a lot more linear, and the episodes don’t change a lot based on canon or Sparking (although the ending changes). Ultimately, unlocking the two sagas will not only help you explore greater parts of the story and gain more exp and Zeni while doing so.
