![]() ![]() The roster is the most diverse it’s ever been. Daisy, Chrom, Dark Samus, Ken, and previously mentioned Richter, are the brand new echo fighters. Echo fighters- previously known as clone characters by the fans- add some originality to older fighter’s move-sets. The cream of the crop, however, is the addition of the two vampire killers from Konami’s Castlevania series, Simon and Richter Belmont. Meanwhile, modern recognizable characters Isabelle, Incineroar, and Inkling join the battle giving younger players their childhood icons. Rool from the Donkey Kong Country series, finally make their long-awaited debut adding more heavyweights and antagonist to the roster- something we have been in dire need of since Super Smash Bros. ![]() Villains, Ridley from the Metroid series and King K. The eleven newcomers are all fantastic additions to the roster. Super Smash Bros Ultimate boasts an exciting roster- Image courtesy of Nintendo. ![]() Just when I was blown away by the 58 character total of the previous entry in 2014, Ultimate kicks it up to 74- however, it can technically be considered 77 if we count the Pokemon Trainer as three individual characters and Piranha Plant who is a free early adopter purchase releasing in February. It is the largest cast of characters to ever appear in a fighting game. There is simply nothing negative to say about this roster. Everyone is indeed here, whether they are a reoccurring veteran such as Mario, Pikachu, and Link or a character that made an appearance only once like Pichu, Young Link, and Wolf. Ultimate more unique than any other entry in the series is that it sees the return of every single fighter who appeared in the franchise’s history. Right off the bat, what makes Super Smash Bros. As series creator Masahiro Sakurai put it, “this is the best Smash for your buck.” Once again worlds collide in what is definitively the ultimate crossover in video game history- dare I say entertainment history. Ultimate takes the series to the next level. Mario, Link, Ryu, Sonic, Kirby, Solid Snake, Pac-Man, and Cloud Strife all fighting in an 8 player battle on a Bayonetta themed stage with GameCube controllers sounds like something straight out of a dream, but only an insane combination like this is possible in Nintendo’s all-star crossover series Super Smash Brothers. ![]()
