VGA 2018: Super Smash Bros. Ultimate X Persona 5

Talking about HYPE, Nintendo has announced their first DLC character for Super Smash Brothers Ultimate and no other than Joker, the protagonist of Persona 5. The game will come out in a few hours with a roster of 74 characters and 75 when Piranha Plant launches in February. He will be free to anyone who buys the game before the end of January. Also the game is getting five paid DLC characters in a “Character Pack DLC”.

In case that you guys have been living under a rock Persona 5 is a Japanese role-playing game that launched in 2017 for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 3.

Also this is the first Atlus character to join the roster. Like Snake, Mega Man, PAC-MAN, Ryu, Sonic, Bayonetta, and Cloud, Joker is a third party character.

Check out the Trailer:

During a segment where Geoff Keighley was on stage, the lights cut out and led to a trailer featuring dialogue with various characters from Persona 5. That in turn revealed Joker as a playable character, although we unfortunately didn’t see any actual gameplay or learn anything about how he’ll play.

Joker will be the first DLC character released for the game (outside of Piranha Plant) and will come included in Challenge Pack 1. Each DLC pack will be solid individually and includes a character, stage, and music. Alternatively, you can buy the Fighters Pass to get them all.

Reggie Fils-Aime came on-stage after the reveal to talk a little about the new, and he teased that all five DLC characters to come between now and February 2020 will be newcomers to the series. He also noted they will be ones “who you wouldn’t anticipate” being included in Smash.
