Prepare to have your hearts stolen by the Phantom Thieves, as Nintendo has just announced one of their DLC fighters for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. Joker and his Persona will be joining the fight. The announcement was made by Reggie during The Game Awards 2018. Joker will be the 76th character added to the game, and will be released sometime next year. Super Smash Bros. Ultimate launches tomorrow. December 7.

Just bring Persona 5 to the switch God damnit...

 

[bi388]

Snake?

Originated on the NES (at least in america) and theres at least 6 Metal Gear games on nintendo systems.

 

[oji]

I would be really nice to get Persona 5 Golden somewhere soon after (or even before) SMTV on Switch

 

[VinsCool]

Snake had games on Nintendo systems tho.

Oh snap, I meant Cloud.

 

[Viri]

and yet not a single character from a western dev, great job sakurai, the doomslayer sends his regards.

Dark Samus and K Rool.

Also, I hope this means they'll port over Persona 5 to the Switch. Maybe even 3 and 4, so I'll never have to worry about getting a Vita.

Also, we know who the true Atlus rep in Smash should have been!

Spoiler

You know you'd main him!

Oh snap, I meant Cloud.

Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories and Final Fantasy Theatrhythm: Curtain Calls (don't remember if he's in the first game. Probably.).

 

[SG854]

They should get Sora in smash. There’s a couple of Kingdom Hearts GBA, DS and 3DS games. And Roxas as a color scheme.

Im here to Straighten Out all of you. Smash Bros Ultmate is 2018 Game of The Year, NOT GOD OF WAR

It was pretty much released after the show, so it's a bit late for that.

 

[Deleted User]

Awsome! Joker is a nice addition. Hope Persona 5 will get a release too

 

[AxlSt00pid]

Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories and Final Fantasy Theatrhythm: Curtain Calls (don't remember if he's in the first game. Probably.).

As a KH fan that played the GBA version of Chain of Memories multiple times I can assure you Cloud's in the game, more specifically he's on Olympus with his KH1 outfit

Edit:
Also, thank you so much Sakurai, you did it the absolute madman!
(Remember guys, Xander Mobus voices both the announcer and Persona 5's Joker)

 

[Heichart]

They just Stole my Heart.

 

[NightStorm1000]

I never saw that comming

 

[Deleted User]

All hail DLCs, I guess ?
One more, one less...

If one can praise this kind of marketing habit, I must assume it is not a golden era of gaming anymore, at least not for me.
No wonder I'm a filthy casual nowadays.

 

[Amost]

Incredible!

 

[BlueFox gui]

this is interesting

 

[leon315]

and yet not a single character from a western dev, great job sakurai, the doomslayer sends his regards.

Mortally challenged, NO ONE WILL SURVIVE OUR DOOM GUY!

 

[BORTZ]

This is amazing! I found my new main.

I still hold out hope for Travis Touchdown.

 

[Greymane]

nintendo bringing another trouser arouser.

 

[brunocar]

Dark Samus and K Rool.

Also, I hope this means they'll port over Persona 5 to the Switch. Maybe even 3 and 4, so I'll never have to worry about getting a Vita.

Spoiler

You know you'd main him!

so you need to be created by western devs on a japanese franchise to be in smash?

WE'LL NEVER SEE IT COMING
