Super Smash Bros. Ultimate’s next DLC fighter reveal: Start time and where to watch

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate’s next DLC character will be revealed on Thursday 1st October, Nintendo has announced. 

The new character will be the second in Fighters Pass 2, following the addition of Min Min from ARMS.

But who could the next fighter be? Crash Bandicoot was long rumoured to be added to the title last year, and with this announcement coming a day before Crash Bandicoot 4’s release - it feels almost too perfectly timed.

Other characters on fan wish lists include Dante from Devil May Cry, or perhaps something else entirely from Mario’s universe. Monty Mole? We wouldn’t argue with it.
