Want more Blast Bros Ultimate DLC? Nosotros don't blame y'all – Super Smash Bros Ultimate is the biggest, and perhaps the best, Smash Bros fighting game to grace our Nintendo consoles.

Simply if you've fought every single Smash Bros Ultimate character to exhaustion, don't worry – there'due south a number of add-in fighters beyond the base roster, from fan-favorites similar Banjo-Kazooie and Persona 5's Joker to fighting game crowd pleasers similar Tekken's Kazuya Mishima and Fatal Fury's Terry Bogard.

The latest and last Smash Bros Ultimate DLC character is Sora, the face of the Kingdom Hearts games developed by Foursquare Enix in collaboration with Disney. It'southward not what everyone on the TechRadar squad wanted, but it'due south a certainly a fitting sendoff for the game, given its penchant for the impossible, and the fact that Sora has been highly requested since the days of Smash Bros. for Wii U.

That's the end of the pipeline though, with Smash Bros Ultimate DLC being completely done now – until we run across a Nail Bros Ultimate sequel, that is, which will undoubtedly play host to a fresh roster of guest fighters. We're still a chip upset almost Cuphead being relegated to a Mii Fighter, but at that place's been plenty to excite players in Fighters Pass 1 and 2, and at that place's a peace in it finally being over.

You lot can check out all the currently available Smash Bros Ultimate DLC fighters below.

Nail Bros Ultimate DLC characters

The existent draw of Smash Bros DLC is in the fighters. Nintendo has unveiled all five fighters for the showtime Fighters Laissez passer, and all simply 1 for Fighters Pass Vol 2. We've listed them all below from the latest (Sora) to the commencement (Piranha Establish). We'll exist certain to add data on incoming fighters as and when they're released likewise.

Sora (available now)

Sora! From Kingdom Hearts! The Disney-Square Enix collab is technically a swordsman, but the swinging primal he uses in boxing is however a nice break from, you know, actual swords.

In the final Boom Bros DLC presentation, Sakurai stated that "Sora's controls are relatively straightforward," and that he "excels at airborne fighting" while having a large jump and recovery altitude. "He'due south quite floaty," Sakurai adds, making him easy to push around the phase as a histrion – and as an enemy, with Sora prone to being knocked away.

Sora represents a plumbing equipment finish to Nail Bros Ultimate DLC, we feel. Considered an incommunicable character given the corporeality of legal red record involved, we're shocked to see him finally arrive in the game. Still, Ultimate has had a addiction of making the impossible a reality, and in this sense, Sora and Kingdom Hearts are arguably the greatest prize of all.

Kazuya (available now)

During Nintendo's E3 2021 presentation, we learned that the Tekken mainstay Kazuya was joining the fight. Smash Bros. manager Sakurai also confirmed that Kazuya will retain several iconic moves from the Tekken games, including the Sternum Smash, Jumping Sobat, Dragon Uppercut, Tombstone Crusher, Gates of Hell and Demon God Fist. Just effort not to go far his way when the demon side comes out...

Pyra and Mythra (available now)

Pyra and Mythra are the next ii characters coming to Super Smash Bros. Ultimate in 2021. The two sword-wielding characters made their appearance during the February Nintendo Direct event and will be arriving in March. You'll be able to switch between the characters freely – similar to how Zelda and Shiek used to work – and each will have their own set of skills.

Sephiroth (available now)

"Now, I shall bring Nail despair." What an entrance. Simply we'd expect nothing less from Sephiroth, the iconic Final Fantasy villain, who acted as the adversary in Final Fantasy 7 (and the Final Fantasy 7 remake). His air of doom, single black wing, and incredibly long sword – bully for poking fighters off the end of a stage, we imagine – should brand this fallen angel a welcome improver to the roster. Face him off with Deject for a real tense fight-off with your friends.

Steve / Alex / Zombie / Enderman (available to download)

We can't blame Nintendo for this Minecraft collab, given the immense popularity of the blocky crafting game. What's surprising, though, is you can play as any of Steve, Alexa, Zombie, or Enderman, making for some juicy variety in just 1 DLC download – with the ability to craft blocks to obstruct enemies, blow up TNT, or merely moving ridge around a sword like the residue of the fighters.

Min Min (bachelor to download)

ARMS' first fighter comes to Smash Bros on June 29 in the form of Min Min. You'll control her arms with the A and B buttons, co-ordinate to the new in-depth look at the fighter. 18 tracks from Arms are to be added with the fighter, too, offering the game a major presence in Nail Bros.

Her Terminal Smash assail (opens in new tab), as well, features the entire ARMS roster.

Byleth (available for download)

Byleth is the lead grapheme from 2019'due south Fire Keepsake: Three Houses, a contempo entry in the Fire Emblem military tactics game.

You'll be able to choose male or female version of the character – both named Byleth – which is refreshing, and something we'd love to come across for more fighters on the roster. In that location'll also exist a choice of weapons to wield and strike with using your various different attacks, including a lance, axe, bow, and sword.

A curious pick, given how many Fire Emblem characters are already in the game – Marth, Roy, Ike, Robin, Lucina, and Corrin – but information technology will no doubt delight some fans out there.

Terry Bogard (available for download)

You know, Terry! From Fatal Fury? The 1991 fighting game on the Neo Geo panel? Ok, this i might exist a bit lesser-know than some of the DLC fighters on this listing, but this graphic symbol from the classic 90s Fatal Fury franchise fits right in with the best of them.

The Terry fighter finally get available in November, a couple of months later its Nintendo Direct announcement. You tin can cheque out the character'due south moveset in this official video (opens in new tab), too – and it'south clear he'southward got a pretty good uppercut.

Hero (available for download)

All the fans of the Dragon Quest franchise got a real treat at this year'southward E3: confirmation of non ane but iv Dragon Quest heroes in 1 DLC pack. Acting every bit skins of each other, with the largest number of moves of any fighter in the game – thanks to a wide multifariousness of assault, evasion, and consequence spells – it's a lively improver that effectively gives you four new characters to play with.

There's an declaration trailer (in a higher place) and more than in-depth video stream (below) that goes into Hero's various moves and abilities.

Each Hero will have an MP meter – yes, just similar the game – which uses up mana every time y'all cast a spell: be information technology to heal yourself, throw yourself up in the air, turn yourself into metal, or otherwise. Definitely a fighter for the more strategic players out at that place, equally there's a lot of options to play with. You tin fifty-fifty bandage Kacrackle!

Banjo-Kazooie (available for download)

Damn straight. After years of clamoring for Rare's iconic bird and bear duo to join the Smash Bros series, Banzo-Kazooie is finally hither. While Rare is now a subsidiary of Microsoft, the dear developer was previously closely tied with Nintendo, and it's heart-warming to see one of its near famous creations welcomed dorsum into the family.

It looks like Kazooie will be able to help out with jumps and ranged attacks, with Banjo using fists and items for more close-range attacks. Here's hoping we finally go to hit Mario over the caput with a banjo, merely like we always dreamed.

Joker (bachelor for download)

No, not that Joker. Nintendo teased the trickster from Atlus' paranormal RPG Persona 5 presently subsequently Ultimate's launch, with a cracking animated teaser yous tin see below. Smash Bros' version of Joker keeps the graphic art style of its source material, with some stylish slides and jumps, handguns, and some supernatural forces to help you win the boxing...

Persona 5 is a PS3 / PS4 sectional, though, making Joker'southward appearance on a Nintendo console all the more intriguing – and fuelling speculation that Persona 5 could exist coming to Nintendo Switch.

Piranha Plant (available for download)

A potted plant may not seem like the best fit for an action-packed fighting game, but Piranha Constitute is a classic Mario nemesis going back decades – Nintendo certainly likes to play by its own rules. Yous tin run across some of Piranha Plant's moves in the video beneath, including a monstrous Final Blast featuring Petey Piranha.

Players who bought Super Smash Bros Ultimate by the end of Jan 2019 had a take chances to download the fighter early, just Piranha Plant is now bachelor on the Switch eShop for $four.49 (£4.49 / AU$7.lxxx).

Smash Bros Ultimate DLC Challenger Packs

The new fighters (Piranha Plant excluded) each come in a bundle called a 'Challenger Pack', which throw in a new stage and thematic soundtracks alongside the new character. You lot can buy each of the five Challenger's Packs individually for $5.99 (£5.39 / AU$7.80).

Alternatively you can purchase an all-inclusive Fighters Pass for $24.99 (£22.49 / AU$32.l), which nets you each pack as information technology arrives, as well as a Mii Fighter outfit based on Xenoblade ii's Rex. Fighters Pass does not include Piranha Plant, though.
