While Goku has a dedicated episodic story, he has three different Sparking episodes. These are alternate storylines that don’t follow the canon and allow you to explore what-if scenarios. Unlike the main episode, the three Sparking episodes remain locked. There are specific tasks you’ll need to complete in order to unlock the alternate storylines and progress through them.

First, let’s take a look at how to unlock the Side by Side episode.

How to unlock Side by Side in Dragon Ball Sparking Zero

The Side by Side is a fantastic storyline where Goku stands up against Raditz and all the fellow Saiyans. To trigger this episode, you’ll have to reject Piccolo’s help to fight Raditz. Instead, you’ll have to accept Krillin’s help for the same job, which is then followed by the remaining episodes.

The fight against Vegeta is a true sight to behold for every hardcore Dragon Ball fan.

How to unlock Pushing the Limit in Dragon Ball Sparking Zero

Unlocking Pushing the Limit is pretty similar to triggering Side by Side. In Side by Side, you choose to take help from Krillin to defeat Raditz. To activate Pushing the Limit, you’ll have to accept Piccolo’s help, but Raditz has to be defeated before Piccolo executes the Special Beam Cannon. You should ideally target to defeat Raditz within three minutes, as that’s a safe number to consider.

This episode features two memorable contests between Goku and Vegeta, and the former also faces Nappa.

How to unlock The Changed Future in Dragon Ball Sparking Zero

You can only unlock this Sparking episode by making decent progress in Goku’s main saga, where you end up going against Cell. You’ll get the choice to face off against Cell during Piccolo’s fight against Android 17. You’ll have to defeat Cell without a single hit from the Solar Flare.

The last Sparking episode is all about Goku’s trysts against the Androids. It’s not among the favorite alternate storylines for sure, but you might like it. Additionally, Goku’s main saga also has several smaller branches, so make sure to try them out after finishing the main storyline for additional rewards and alternate endings.
