Final

72 fighters until today!

Final new fighters I like how they went back to the poster a filled it in as they went.

Ken (Echo) His ultimate looks really cool (They disrespect Luigi by calling him a Mario Echo!)

Faster than Ryu

Incineroar (Pokemon?) Based on wrestling (lots of throws)

74 fighters (Start with Mario, DK, Link, Samus, Yoshi, Kirby, Fox and Pikachu)

``` Paid DLC coming! This was kind of telegraphed because Mr. Furukawa said they wanted more DLC in their bigger titles 1 fighter 1 stage and music tracks ($5.99) Fighters pass 5 fighters 5 stages and all music trakcs ($24.99) (I'll be buying it) Rex Mii Swordfighter

Characters other than fighters?

Spirits! This is the adventure mode - feels like Gatcha???!?!

Power up your character in battle, kind of like Blades and drivers in Xenoblade

Spirits come in classes Novice > Advanced > Aces > Legends

You assign one spirit at a time (your spirits can get support spirits)

``` Spirit battles to get spirits (PvE)

    Support Spirits help you avoid environmental damage

There is a weapon triangle

As if a game with a roster this big wasn't going to be hard enough to balance. Perhaps they did it to make it so people could balance weaknessess themselves?

```

Matchmaking is based on what rules you like, Smash Power (ranking) , Proximity

Online battles

``` Elite Smash - Smash tags (collect for winning)

Spectator mode! Will be running tournaments on twitch for this

Smash World (gameplay videos / Social media?)

```

You can turn off the music if you want!!!
