Nintendo has put out an announcement recapping all of today’s news from the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate presentation with director Masahiro Sakurai. It covers all of the important details surrounding Kazuya and more.
Below is the full press release:
Believe it or not, the end is almost here for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. While director Masahiro Sakurai has previously said that the Fighters Pass Vol. 2 would conclude DLC for the game, some were holding out hope that something would change. However, Sakurai and Nintendo are sticking to the original plan.
Sakurai reconfirmed during a broadcast for Kazuya today that “the next DLC fighter will be the last one.” He added, “There won’t be any more after that.”
Sakurai’s full words:
It turns out that we won’t be seeing the next amiibo for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate anytime soon. The next figure, Min Min, is slated for a 2022 release.
Nintendo still has plans to introduce amiibo for other DLC fighters in Smash Bros. Ultimate. However, there’s no word on release timing at present.
The wait for Kazuya in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is almost over. Players can purchase and use the DLC fighter on June 29, director Masahiro Sakurai has announced.
As a reminder, the DLC isn’t just Kazuya himself. You’ll also be getting a new Mishima Dojo stage from Tekken and 39 music tracks from the series.
Here’s a whole bunch of information about how Kazuya plays in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate:
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate director Masahiro Sakurai is currently hosting a presentation to spotlight the game’s new DLC fighter. Though the broadcast has been almost entirely about Kazuya, the next wave of Mii Fighter costumes have also been revealed. The lineup includes Lloyd (Swordfighter) from Tales of Symphonia, Dragonborn (Swordfighter) from The Elder Scrolls, Dante (Swordfighter) from Devil May Cry, and Shantae (Brawler).
All of these Mii Fighter launch tomorrow, June 29. They’re priced at $0.75 each.
