Aiming to introduce six new fighters, the latter has recently reached the middle of its path, with the announcement of the debut of Sephiroth in Super Smash Bros Ultimate. The charismatic villain of Final Fantasy VII thus follows the path previously taken by Min Min and Steve, coming respectively from the universes of ARMS and Minecraft. There is currently no official news on what will be the identity of the remaining three characters part of Fighter Pass Vol. 2, but a rumor is gaining increasing attention.
In the month of May 2020, on the pages of the 4chan forum had appeared a report related to the alleged contents of the DLC package. Given the difficulty in assessing the reliability of the anonymous posts that characterize the portal, the latter had gone substantially unnoticed. In retrospect, however, the rumor has gained new attention, as it has so far proved to be actually accurate. The following are the fighters expected according to the 4chan post:
Min-Min and Ninjara (ARMS); Ryu Hayabusa; Doomguy; Rayman; Sephiroth; Steve; Missing at this point would be Ryu Hayabusa, from Ninja Gaiden, Doomguy, from DOOM, and Rayman, from the Ubisoft series of the same name. Could these be the fighters planned by the Nintendo team for the expansion of the fighting game roster? At the moment it is impossible to say for sure, but pending official news, players can take advantage of the latest update of Super Smash Bros Ultimate to take control of Sephiroth.
