A major Super Smash Bros. Ultimate leak that could have confirmed Xenoblade Chronicles 2’s Pyra as DLC Fighter 9 may have revealed the remaining characters for Fighters Pass Volume 2.
It seems like not a day goes by without a “leak” of Smash Ultimate popping up, and although many of these leaks end up being made by bored fans who want to mislead people, a leak can sometimes turn up a bit of legitimacy.
One from January 8 is gaining popularity online because she apparently confirmed Pyra as DLC 9 and the remaining fighters as well. Of course, Pyra was only unveiled on Nintendo Direct in February, so this leak may have some truth.
According to the learner, Nintendo plans to host a three-hour concert in 2022, where a symphony orchestra will play renditions of songs featured in Smash Ultimate.
Pyra was leaked in a forum post in January.
“This event is being held in Japan after the Second Fighters Pass has been completed and the necessary precautions are being taken to make this event happen,” the leak wrote. “They will be streaming the event live on Youtube for all around the world to see, and eventually Nintendo will be distributing a soundtrack on the My Nintendo Service.”
They then listed all the songs Nintendo is considering for the concert, and there are some great additions that look like potential fighters could leak if true.
Most importantly, the fun, directly after Sephiroth’s One-Winged Angel theme, cites the counterattack from Xenoblade Chronicles 2 as the next song. This song was used in Pyra’s revelation trailer, indicating that it will be included in DLC content, which is still planned for March.
A concert leak sounds crazy. Could this be true?
Following that track, “N. Sanity Beach ”is the next one on the list, which would mean that Crash Bandicoot would be the next DLC fighter.
Crash was an incredibly popular candidate for Smash Ultimate, and the fact that he could finally get into Fighters Pass Volume 2 is a big deal.
The latest track for a new fighter listed by the leak is ‘Proof of a Hero’ coming from the Monster Hunter series. Monster Hunter is another character that fans were curious to see in Smash, and while some reports claim this is unlikely, this leak indicates otherwise.
Crash in Smash? It’s about time.
Of course, take it all with a grain of salt. The fact that N. Sanity Beach casually mentions this leak without also discussing Crash seems a little strange, especially if someone really has this information.
Luckily, we may not have too long to see if this leak is true or not. It’s possible that the Monster Hunter Mii Warriors from the previous game could have been announced during Pyra’s full presentation, as many of Smash 4’s Miis returned for Ultimate.
Crash of Monster Hunter could be Challenger Pack 10.
If they do not return, the chances of the characters being promoted to full warriors are likely to increase.
We need to see what the future holds and whether Crash fans can finally get their wish from the bandicoot in Smash.
