Dragon Ball: Sparking! ZERO players will unlock the Future Trunks saga in Episode Battle mode after completing the Future Trunks arc with Goku. For whatever reason, the developers opted to skip over the character’s involvement with everything other than the Goku Black storyline, making this one of the shortest sagas in the game. Despite this, however, Future Trunks has more possible endings than pretty much every other playable character in Episode Battle mode.

How to Unlock All of Jiren’s Endings in Dragon Ball: Sparking! ZERO
Unlocking all three Jiren endings in Sparking! ZERO can be tricky, as both Strength is Absolute and True Strength have fairly confusing requirements.
The ending that players will get is tied to their response to two choices which come in the Trunks’s Choice and To Become Strongest in the Universe… episodes. Thankfully, as is the case with most of the other big decisions in Dragon Ball: Sparking! ZERO, players will be able to return to these choices and explore all of the other outcomes later, making their decision somewhat inconsequential. However, as all of the Future Trunks endings in Sparking Zero have a Trophy / Achievement attached to them, completionists will likely want to unlock each one.
Although
Sparking Zero
episodes with branching pathways
will need to be completed on the default difficulty setting to unlock the secondary objective, players are free to switch to easy mode after completing them if they find themselves struggling with any of the episodes that follow.
Should You Choose “Return to My World” or “Stay Here and Train” in Trunks’s Choice?
Choosing “Return to my world” in Trunks’s Choice will result in players getting Future Trunks’ canon ending, which sees him return to his own timeline.

Should You Choose “Follow Vegeta” or “Stay with Gohan” in To Become Strongest in the Universe…?
Players will only gain access to the choice in To Become Strongest in the Universe… if they beat Vegeta, Piccolo, and Gohan quickly while playing on the default difficulty setting.

If they choose “Stay with Gohan”, they’ll instead end up getting the Embarking toward Tomorrow ending.
Those having trouble beating Vegeta, Piccolo, and Gohan quickly in To Become Strongest in the Universe… may want to consider using a Dragon Orb to make the episode’s secondary objective easier. Dragon Orbs can be obtained via
a wish from Shenron
and are used by pressing the options button while on the episode select screen.
