Nintendo previously announced that Lucas would be coming to Super Smash Bros. Wii U and 3DS today. However, it’s now confirmed through the game’s latest presentation that two additional characters have joined the roster as well. Ryu and Roy, who were officially discovered via leaks yesterday, will be added to Super Smash Bros. in a matter of minutes. All three characters will be available for purchase today. Additionally, new stages and Mii Fighter costumes will be launching today as well.
Nintendo has released an official trailer for the reveal of Ryu in Smash Bros. Check it out below.
As was announced during today’s Smash Bros. presentation, it’s been confirmed that the Wii U game will be getting YouTube uploads for replays. A release date hasn’t been announced just when. When it arrives, the feature will be free to use.
