As a seasoned gamer with decades of gaming under my belt, I’ve seen my fair share of mods and their consequences. The latest warning from Bandai Namco about potential bans for using mods in Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero’s custom battles is a tough pill to swallow, but it’s a necessary one.
Sparking! Zero has issued a warning today to players that they could potentially face bans if they use certain modifications (mods) while playing online. These mods alter the characters’ appearances, adding more characters beyond the 182 already in the game. While this is acceptable for offline play, using these mods in custom matches increases the risk of receiving a ban.
It appears Bandai Namco’s warning pertains specifically to the custom battle mode of Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero, which allows players to create their own Dragon Ball fights by choosing characters, stages, and other specific details. These self-designed battles can be saved, and others can access them using a unique code for personal play.
The problem with those matches is that players can presumably use mods when creating one to change the appearances of characters among anything else that a mod would be capable of (which is pretty much everything). Even if you download a custom battle that uses a mod, if you don’t have the mod in question, it’s almost certainly not going to work for you anyway which defeats the purpose of using them in custom matches. For content moderation purposes, the thumbnails for custom battles also make use of whatever content is included in them, so even if the mods don’t work for others, they’d still be able to see some thumbnails that are potentially unsuitable for online play.
For this purpose, Bandai Namco has declared: refrain from employing mods during custom games, or risk facing a ban.

As a fan of Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero, I’m here to share some important info about Custom Battle MODs. Starting now, we’re taking action against users who have utilized any MOD systems in Custom Battles. To ensure you don’t receive any penalties, please delete any custom battles with MODs right away. Just a heads up: our support team can’t handle issues or appeals stemming from the use of MODs. We hope this clarification is helpful and we thank you for your cooperation and ongoing love for the game!
It’s uncertain how long a ban may persist if you’re caught using mods in online gaming, but it seems Bandai Namco isn’t planning to lift the ban once issued, given that a warning has already been given. If you’ve used mods for custom battles and uploaded them, now might be the ideal moment to delete them. Additionally, if you encounter a custom battle online that appears to have been modified, it’s advisable to steer clear of it as it likely won’t function correctly and will probably be removed soon.
In addition to utilizing mods for enhanced custom battles, players have stumbled upon a method within Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero to access a custom battle situation that was already integrated into the game. By inputting a specific code, players can play as Gohan Black in the Dragon Ball game without using any mods, although he isn’t officially selectable from the game’s character roster. This has sparked speculation that Gohan Black might be introduced later as a separate fighter, but for now, we only have information about previously announced DLC.
