We’ve got a date for the version 3.0.0 update for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. On April 17th, Persona 5’s Joker will be joining the Smash roster, but that won’t be the only new addition. As previously leaked, a stage builder will also be added to the game, alongside a video editor and Smash World integration.

Do you need test subjects for your deathtraps?

(this is mario maker all over again)

 

[SecureBoot]

Sooner than expected. Cool! That was my last bit of hope for an April direct so I'll just wait for E3

 

[ScarletDreamz]

I demand a more animated victory screen for EVERY other character as the Joker one D: <

He looks amazing. Love that it has the original all out attack and win screen

how is a free update piracy? They are not allowing you to get a free update for a game you paid for

I was thinking that too. But dosent it not matter if it's free or not?

AFAIK the only part of the update that's free is the stage builder, Joker and the Persona stage are $5.99 or $25 for the fighters' pass with all the DLC characters.

Still obviously I agree with you, if you're banned then you might as well just update through nsp. It's not like they give you the option to pay them for the content at that point.

Yup that was the update I was talking about

I had a feeling when we got the System Update that we were close but I wasn't expecting April 17th. No Home Run Contest, either that was a leftover or they are saving it for later. Update certainly looks good though.

PS5 who? This is the best news today!!!

I am also really hoping for Homerun smash. Its been in every smash since melee. Wont be the ultimate smash without it. I also wish we'd get something like trophy rush to get more coins. The game needs alot more single player content

It really does, it feels like all the single player content went towards Spirits.

I've been thinking about getting a stylus to be able to draw well in Splatoon 2 for a while, but now I need one for sure. It's going to be awkward and time consuming drawing stages precisely with my finger in the meantime.
