A leading insider in the industry shared new inside information regarding this information Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, which reveals some details about DLC and a cut character. The information comes from former Gamer Informer editor and current Kinda Funny Games host Imran Khan, who recently shared some insight and secrets to Super Smash Bros. Ultimate players on Reset Era. The most striking of this app is one of the game’s recent DLC characters, Byleth, the protagonist of Fire emblem: Three houses, and a character that according to Khan contains a movement set based on another character that has been canceled.
Unfortunately, Khan does not reveal who this character is, but notes that they were canceled after negotiations for them to appear in the game failed. In addition, Khan adds the speculation about a Monster Hunter character comes to the game, as the developer behind the game is dead, or at least has been, against their characters going over with other games. In other words, if you are on a Monster Hunter character needs to be added with the few remaining DLC slots, you can probably stop crossing your fingers.
Khan does not stop there. Back to Byleth, he notes that the character was originally supposed to be part of the game’s main roster. In other words, they were not a substitute for the above cut character. On the contrary, it just so happened to work out that way.
Finally, Khan notes that part of the appeal that Min Min was added was DLC that she was a Nintendo character and therefore could be more easily added as a guest character. Meanwhile, Sephiroth was cheaper than he would normally do because Square Enix was eager to get the deal done, which may explain why we got a second Final fantasy character before so many other much-requested characters from non-proposed series.
Like all information about the unofficial and leaked variety, everything here must of course be taken with a substantial grain of salt. Although Khan is reliable, nothing here is official, and some have admittedly been sprinkled with a bit of speculation.
At the time of publication, Nintendo, or any other party involved, has commented on any of the above information. It probably will not change, but if it does, we will surely update the story with everything provided, striking or not. Meanwhile, for more coverage on Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, click here.
