As Sakurai notes, though, Nintendo intends to add six more DLC fighters to the game in the future. You’ll be able to purchase the new pass starting soon, and the studio states that they have already decided which fighters will be added to the game as part of the upcoming DLC. Those who purchase the upcoming pass will also receive a Breath of the Wild-themed costume. 

This isn’t exactly the most groundbreaking reveal Nintendo could have announced during this stream. We love Fire Emblem, but Smash Bros. isn’t suffering from a shortage of content related to that franchise. 

Interestingly, Nintendo did note that they understand if fans are hesitant to purchase the new pass before they know who will be featured in it. It’s a reminder that Nintendo never really dove that deep into the world of DLC before this gaming generation.
