During the final Sakurai Presents for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Masahiro Sakurai revealed that the title's final DLC character is Sora from Kingdom Hearts!

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is the fifth instalment in the popular crossover fighting game series featuring various Nintendo and other third-party characters.

Previously, on Twitter, former Kingdom Hearts series executive producer Shinji Hashimoto expressed his interest in Sora joining the Super Smash Bros. series in a playable capacity, but he later deleted the tweet.

You can view the announcement trailer for Sora below:

Nomura helped out a lot with this.

you know what's scary

the fact that Sakurai can make a deal with the House of Mouse.

from what someone was telling me

Disney asked more than other third parties.

Was told it was eight digits or somewhere around there.

That's in USD and mere speculation with some regard.

Both, probably.

Though from what I know.

Nomura helped out a lot with this.

10m+

not sure exact numbers but

it was a lot

Insomniac gets it

hoping it's the KH2 Keyhole seal animation somehow

that Mickey icon

plus music

plus the fact that you have a premium due to HJO's voice alone.

HJO being the second Hollywood actor to be in Smash.

Right behind David Hayter.

Hayter was an actor, yes.

it is HJO's voice

recycled from KH3

I heard clips of it

it's his KH3 clips

yeah

so it's recycled from DDD and KH3

either way

good shit

honestly wondering what his third victory pose is

since we've only seen two

hoping it's the KH2 Keyhole seal animation somehow

also

some funny lore

Mario being able to hold the keyblade is a reference to KH's origins

since KH was originally made out of inspiration from SM64

and the rest is history

and if we're being honest

I'm glad KH1 Sora was used as the primary

because maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan

it feels so good

if my seven year old self saw this

I would imagine losing it LOL

I was 7 when KH1 came out

yep

am glad they did include his other outfits

including DDD

I was shocked DDD was included lol

Sora or not, I really don't like Smash gameplay so I'll pass

watch Nomura make Smash canon to KH lore

and that too

sparkly keyblade

also because of Sora now officially in

this opens up a lot of fanfics

LMAO

watch Nomura make Smash canon to KH lore

If tomorrow there's a KH game with Smash gameplay I'll buy it and will love it

But Smash, meh

Wasn't he in Brave Exvius?

And World of Final Fantasy

I mean yeah

first time he's been in a proper fighter

and honestly

it opens the doors to a lot of things

that handshake with Sora and Mario was 20 years in the making

it really is a celebration of video games now

No, at first it was a Nintendo celebration

Only since Brawl has it been video games

hoping for Riku at least with a Destiny Island stage

I know

I'm saying now it really is a big ol' one

I am a bit sad that besides loving the KH1 Hollow Bastion pick for the stage

I wish it was Destiny Islands

Would've made for a great KH stage

perhaps if a future Smash game with Sora again comes

we get a second stage and rep

hoping for Riku at least with a Destiny Island stage

The only thing I wish was that there was more tracks in there, remixes even

I really wonder why that is

Like I guess they wanted to just mainly represent the first game in the series and his most iconic design or whatever but still

screeching

Timeless river jsut firetrucking works fornsmash

The other costumes are meh

But DAMN TIMELESS RIVER SLAPS

Tbf I see ppl complaing about his "gameplay" what do you expect? firetrucking Genis appearing as a summon?

Or like form changes?

People will complain about anything

It’s smash

The community is just bad

Yep

How does the cloud work?

You use internet to play the game, which is being run on another machine somewhere

I believe

Probably square servers

I love these reactions

So no internet... no cloud stream?

What if internet sucks?

Playing kh3 with infinite input lag

There was another cloud game, control, that I've seen reviews for

The lag wasn't that bad apparently

Although it was a 3rd person shooter

The only reasonable setback would be storage space. 1.5 + 2.5 is 60gb

Hope they don't get scalped, but you never know

Do any of the smash characters just straight up rip models from their games? I feel like they literally would need to make it from scratch because of all the new animations they’re giving to them 🤔

Master Form and Limit Form got shafted. XD
