Nintendo confirms Smash Bros. stream but ‘no new characters’
Terry Bogard to be subject of “in-depth” video
Nintendo has announced a Super Smash Bros. Ultimate live stream for new fighter Terry Bogard.
Director Masahiro Sakurai’s 45-minute presentation will start on Wednesday, November 6 at 5am PT (1pm GMT) and feature “an in-depth” look at the upcoming DLC character from SNK’s Fatal Fury series.
Nintendo warned fans that there will be no announcements regarding any unrevealed fighters during the live stream.
A new Ver. 6.0 update for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate will also arrive soon, Nintendo announced on Tuesday.
This update will include fighter adjustments, meaning replay data from previous versions will be incompatible.
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate’s Terry Bogard DLC looks set for imminent release, after Nintendo added an in-game copyright notice including creator SNK.
Nintendo had previously committed to releasing the veteran Fatal Fury fighting game character in November.
Terry Bogard is the 4th Super Smash Bros. Ultimate DLC character, following Banjo-Kazooie’s release in Setpember.
Nintendo announced in September it will develop more DLC fighters beyond the five previously confirmed for release as part of the Smash Bros. Ultimate Fighters Pass.
Ultimate’s director Masahiro Sakurai recently said he feels there’s “no way” the series will be able to have as many fighters or series represented again in future games.
