“Like it or not, it’s not up to me if another sword fighter comes into play”
If you count the two variants (in Sheikh and Zelda), Smash Ultimate i just got it two more sword users with the addition of Pyra and Mythra.
This follows several other sword users in both steps of Fighters, including the latest addition to Sephiroth. So what does it give? Well, the father of the series Masahiro Sakurai says you can’t blame him!
This week, in statements to Washa Live (via Nintendo Everything), Sakurai explained a few brief things Smash UltimateThe DLC options, however, also had their hands tied a bit for what they could craft. When asked why there are so many sword fighters (a question that is often asked), Sakurai explains, with a laugh, “Like it or not, it’s not up to me if another sword fighter participates in the game.” .
When pressed again, saying that the player base often moans when another sword user is announced, Sakurai goes on and points out, “Well, even if it’s another sword fighter, it will be well as long as we balance them properly “. He also claims that sword fighters are “easy to implement,” especially compared to incredibly intricate characters like Steve.
But outside of that quick description, Sakurai says she really can’t expand beyond that, and that if she “goes a little further, [he] you will receive something from Nintendo. “Something simple, it seems! Sakurai is very careful in what she says in situations like this, but on several occasions she has made it clear that she doesn’t care who is chosen.
