DLC Lineup for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Has Been Decided

During the most recent Nintendo Direct announced a lot of news was provided about Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, such as the future DLC characters. While Masahiro Sakurai didn't explain what characters were being added it was announced that they would be all new characters and not Echo Fighters, for fans of Shadow the Hedgehog it was devastating.

Recently, Sakurai revealed that the upcoming 5 DLC characters have been decided.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate’s DLC line-up is now complete. This time the selection was made entirely by Nintendo. I decide if we can create a fighter based on their selection, then come up with the plan.

It’s great to dream about your favorite character joining the battle and I appreciate your passion, but please try to stay on topic when replying to tweets and refrain from flooding us, and other users, with requests when we're not specifically asking for feedback. Thank you!

Sakurai asked fans not to bombard them with tweets about the future characters and requesting others.

During the Nintendo Direct, it was confirmed that all the characters will be released throughout 2019 and February 2020, with Piranha Plant confirmed as the first DLC character for free until 1/31/2019 for those who purchase the game digitally through the eShop or register their copy of the game.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate launches on December 7th for Nintendo Switch.
