Kazuya Mishima joined the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate lineup last month as the game’s penultimate downloadable fighter. In the latest issue of Famitsu, director Masahiro Sakurai talked through the team’s thought process when developing the character in his weekly column. They wanted to go beyond simply making the Tekken fighter fit the Smash Bros. mold, and find a way to represent Tekken and its core concepts in the game as well.

Below is out our full translation of the column, which also touches on Sakurai’s thoughts on fighting games compared to Smash Bros., where combos fit in the series, and more.

For this week’s event in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, a “Tekken Tournament” will be held. It will limit the action to fighters who don’t use weapons in their movesets.

The new Smash Bros. Ultimate event kicks off on July 9. It will last for a total of three days.
