DRAGON BALL: Sparking! ZERO is scheduled to receive update Ver. 3022.021.003.012.015 on September 4, 2026 at 08:00 UTC for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and PC. Bandai Namco has planned maintenance from 07:50 to 09:00 UTC, according to its official September 3 publication. In mainland France, deployment is therefore expected at 10:00 a.m., with an interruption from 9:50 to 11:00 a.m.
This is a fix-focused update. No new character, mode, DLC or other new content has been announced.
Maintenance will affect access around launch time
Maintenance begins 10 minutes before the announced deployment and continues for one hour afterward. Players who want to play online or check their trophies will need to wait until the service is available again, then confirm that version 3022.021.003.012.015 is installed.
The update applies to PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and PC, as reiterated in the maintenance notice. Bandai Namco does not specify whether the installation process or the interruption will differ between platforms.
CPU behavior and Jiren’s Episode Battle are the main targets
Bandai Namco announces an adjustment to the CPU’s behavior, but does not identify the affected situations or explain the scale of the change. Before deployment, it is therefore not possible to say whether the AI will become more aggressive, more defensive or behave differently only in specific scenarios.
The patch also addresses Jiren’s Episode Battle, where some trophies failed to appear under particular conditions. The publisher does not name the affected trophies or describe those conditions, and it has not confirmed whether missing trophies will be awarded retroactively after installation.
A general stability improvement is also included for DRAGON BALL: Sparking! ZERO. No technical details identify the problems targeted or the platforms most affected.
What to check after the update
Once maintenance ends, players affected by Jiren’s missing trophies can relaunch Episode Battle and check their progress. The CPU adjustment will have to be assessed directly in the relevant sequences because the notice does not describe the change.
For the next updates, JEU.VIDEO’s internal search and the media outlet’s homepage remain useful reference points. Bandai Namco’s official publication remains the source for the schedule, platforms and version number.
This patch concentrates on 3 areas: CPU behavior, the display of certain Jiren trophies and overall stability. The recovery of missing trophies and the precise scope of the AI adjustment will only be clear once the update is deployed.
