Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is planning its latest tourney, which will focus on the Blast Box. During the event, many of these items will be appearing during battle. While they can be hazardous, if you use them properly, they can give you an edge in battle. The types of spirits you can receive will improve as you pick up more wins.
With Sora joining Smash Bros. Ultimate as the game’s DLC fighter on October 18, we can’t help but wonder what Nintendo is planning for next week’s event. Nintendo has often flip flopped between tournaments and Spirits Board events. In any case, we should be finding out in a week from today, and we’ll bring you the news per usual.
As for this week’s event, the new Super Smash Bros. Ultimate tournament with the Blast Box item will begin on October 15. It will last for a total of three days like most normal events in the game.
