Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

Everyone. Literally, everyone that has been playable in past Super Smash Bros. games will be playable in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. This alone is incredible. They have even introduced brand new characters. Inkling will be making their debut in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. Even Solid Snake is back!

One character that has been requested since the start is here. Samus’ rival, and the monster that left her orphaned – Ridley. Ridley is a massive monster and space pirate. To make him a playable character, they had to make him smaller. The intimidation factor shouldn’t be decreased too much. After all, you’ll be able to play as a flying monster that most likely ate Samus’ parents!
