Super Smash Bros. Ultimate – Pyra/Mythra out today

A couple of weeks ago, Xenoblade Chronicles 2’s Pyra and Mythra were revealed for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. Director Masahiro Sakurai is currently hosting a presentation that offers a closer look at the new fighter, and we’ve just received a release date. The DLC launches today.

Pyra and Mythra are a two-in-one character. The same DLC includes a new stage based on Xenoblade Chronicles 2, new music tracks, and new spirits.
