The time has finally come for the final Super Smash Bros. Ultimate character presentation stream. Masahiro Sakurai has just revealed that Sora from Kingdom Hearts will be joining the Smash Ultimate roster later this month on Oct. 18.
Sora is able to use many moves that fans will be familiar with from the Kingdom Hearts series, including fire, thunder, and ice magic. He’ll be doing all this while moving just like he would in his games. He’s a floaty character that’s even lighter than Isabelle or Young Link, which is a weakness even though he can recover fairly easily.
The Rising Falls stage with Hollow Bastion in the background will also be coming to the game. Just like new stages in the past, this one will contain characters and references to the game that the DLC character comes.
Additionally, the Mii costumes this time around include Octoling, Judd, and Doom Slayer for $0.75 each. They’ll be coming to Smash Ultimate on the same day as Sora.
You can check out the presentation for yourself below to see exactly what Sora can do in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate as Sakurai goes in-depth with his moveset.
If you’re looking to get your hands on Sora as soon as possible, you can either buy him for $5.99, or purchase the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Fighters Pass Vol. 2 to get access to him, along with all of the other DLC fighters from the pack. The DLC can be bought right here on the official site.
The Fighters Pass Vol. 2 includes Min Min from ARMS, Steve and Alex from Minecraft, Sephiroth from Final Fantasy VII, Pyra and Mythra from Xenoblade Chronicles 2, and the latest addition, Kazuya Mishima, from Tekken 7.
