To the surprise of many, Nintendo closed out yesterday's Nintendo Direct with an announcement for a new Super Smash Bros. game—scheduled to release this year. There's no gameplay footage, release date, or full title announced yet, but the roster is confirmed to include Mario, Link (featuring his Breath of the Wild appearance), several more characters in silhouette (easily recognizable are Bowser and Donkey Kong), and newcomers the Inklings from Splatoon.
thank you for acknowledging this as a new Smash game and not just a port like everyone keeps thinking it is lol i'm crazy excited. i hope the roster receives minimal or NO cuts from the previous game.
I hope to God there's a story mode, I hated that the last game didn't have one because they were scared that the cutscenes would get leaked online.
The game was fully revealed at E3 today as Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, and will feature EVERY FIGHTER THAT HAS EVER APPEARED IN THE SERIES, in addition to the previously announced Inklings from Splatoon and now Daisy from the Mario series and Ridley from the Metroid series! Check out the full details!
Five new fighters were announced in today's Smash Bros. Direct—two new fighters, and three Echo fighters! Simon from Castlevania joins the fight, along with his Echo fighter Richter!
