At last, at last, at last! The final fighter "Sora" has been announced for the Nintendo Switch "Super Smash Bros.
As the Saiga NAK editorial team members reported on the news while watching the broadcast, we had no idea that "Sora" from the "Kingdom Hearts" series would actually be joining the game!
As you know, the "Kingdom Hearts" series is a work that is intertwined with various circumstances, and even though there were many people who were eagerly awaiting the entry of "Sora," there must have been many people who thought "it would be impossible" somewhere deep inside.
But Nintendo has done it! That's what Smash Bros. is all about! I'm numb!
We've already told you about Sora's entry, but there was also a lot of other information revealed during the broadcast, so we 'd like to introduce the contents of the "Smash Bros. SP Final Special Program," aka "How to Use Sora!
【速報】スマブラSP最後のファイターはキングダムハーツ「ソラ」！
Here's a summary of the "How to use Sora" presentation!
Following the opening video in which all of the previous entries in the series appeared, Masahiro Sakurai(@Sora_Sakurai), the director of Smash Bros.
The director of Smash Bros. SP, Mr. Masahiro Sakurai (@Sora_Sakurai), is the director of Sora SP. Since the fighters in the game are additional DLC, there was no budget for them, so Mr. Sakurai himself had to make an appearance and explain how to use them. I am sure that many of you were looking forward to hearing Mr. Sakurai's stories and his playing techniques.
It's sad to think that this will be the last time...
Additional Mii Fighter Costume #11!
Before announcing the last fighter, we first announced the additional Mii costumes that will be available for a fee.
The additions this time are
- Tacozones [hat] / Splatoon
- Judge-kun [hat] / Splatoon
- Doomslayer [shooting] / DOOM
There will be three types.
The addition of the Doomslayer costume from " DOOM," the originator of the FPS, is a surprise!
Additional Mii Fighter Costumes #11 will be available from Tuesday, October 19, 2021! Priced at 81 yen each (tax included ), they are as unbeatable as ever!
This will be the last time Mii Fighter Costumes will be available for Smash Bros.
Sora's entry in Smash Bros.
The video is the full version of "[Smash Bros SP] The Last Key".
We're taking a look back at the history of Smash Bros. SP development, and we've finally released the video of the last fighter to join the game!
When I saw the charm on the keyblade with the three circles on it, I shuddered!
The last fighter is "Sora" from the "Kingdom Hearts" series !
What is "Kingdom Hearts"?
Many of you may be familiar with "Sora," who has been eagerly awaited, but let me explain about the " Kingdom Hearts " series.
Kingdom Hearts" is a series that has been developed by Disney and Square Enix since 2002.
It is an action RPG that takes players on an adventure through the worlds of many Disney titles, and "Sora" is the main character of the series.
From the first "Kingdom Hearts" released on PS2 in 2002 to "Kingdom Hearts Melody of Memory" released in November 2020, the series has released a large number of titles, including numbered titles and external legends. The system and main character may change depending on the game, but the story is basically the story of "Sora.
Sora", the most requested character in the series, is finally coming to Smash Bros.
Sora's appearance in Smash Bros. She's really here! She's there, alongside Mario!
Whenever a new fighter is announced, Sora's name is always mentioned on social networking sites, and Sakurai knew that he was the most desired character to join the game.
Of course, it wasn't just based on SNS feedback, but more than six years ago when " Smash Bros. for" was released, there was a survey called " Smash Bros.
At the time, the results of the survey were not announced due to concerns about the inconvenience of having to contact the makers of the characters that ranked high in the survey, but the top character at the time, "Sora," ended up being the last fighter to join Smash Bros. It makes my heart flutter.
As Mr. Sakurai mentioned, the entry of "Sora " is a very high hurdle.
It is not the same as adding another fighter, but it is a great accomplishment that was made possible with the help of many people!
The main topic, "How to use Sora," will be discussed in another article!
We will introduce the detailed " how to use" of "Sora", including its controls and special moves, in a separate article!
We will do our best to introduce the controls after the game is released, so please wait a little longer!
New stage "Hollow Bastion
The new stage for "Sora" is "Hollow Bastion," the castle of Maleficent.
In the first "Kingdom Hearts" game, it appeared at the end of the story. In "Kingdom Hearts II," the building was being rebuilt as the "Radiant Garden.
It is a powerful stage where the background changes as you walk around the "Hollow Bastion," but the terrain is simple, with only a single board in the center.
The "Hollow Bastion" is a reproduction of the original structure, so those who have played the original game may recall the hardships of those days.
As the game nears its end, the stage changes and the background transitions to the " Dive to Heart " world familiar from the original story.
In addition to "Sora," the backgrounds of "Riku," "Roxas," "Sion," "Terra," "Ventus," "Aqua," and many other characters can be seen in the game. You can enjoy many characters. You will be fascinated by them.
Of course, you can also turn them into battlefields and endpoints.
As usual! Try "Sora"!
Once again, Mr. Sakurai will give you a chance to try out "Sora" himself!
The game will be played using a strength-based system, and there will be a little bit of the original performance at the finish line!
And the final trump card, "Seal of the Keyhole," which was omitted from the explanation of the controls...!
This is the last time to try out the game. Please check it out for yourself and see what kind of play it will really show you!
The video will be played from the preview.
The music included in the game has also been announced!
For various reasons, we were not able to use the music associated with each world this time, so this is a selection of music from other worlds.
The songs are all based on the premise that the stage is "Hollow Bastion" and include 9 representative songs that can be used in the battle scene!
This time, there are no newly arranged songs, but all songs are the same as the original ones.
In addition, if you have a history of playing " Kingdom Hearts Melody of Memory," the song " Dearly Beloved -Swing Version-," which is used in the game, will be added to the game!
The "Dearly Beloved" song, which is a representative song of "Kingdom Hearts", could not be used in the game because it was too difficult to use in the game, but "-Swing Version-" has managed to be added!
And the fanfare for the victory is a newly drawn song based on "Hand in Hand"!
How gorgeous that the original composer Yuko Shimomura drew the music!
The bonus spirit board!
Of course, there is a spirit board in this issue, too!
The titles are "Kairi", "Ventus", "Aqua", "Terra", "Riku", "Sion", "Axel", "Roxas ", and so on. All of them are allied characters.
Since "Axel" and "Aqua" have other characters with the same name, "(Kingdom Hearts)" will be added after their names.
Delivery on October 19!
The last paid additional content for Smash Bros. SP, "Sora Set," will be released on October 19, 2021 (Tuesday )!
It will be sold separately for 662 yen (tax included) and is of course included in Fighter Pass Vol. 2.
This will really and truly be the last additional fighter!
Please consider purchasing Fighter Pass Vol. 1 and Vol. 2 even if you have not purchased additional fighters before!
New amiibo will also be released!
We've already announced the first amiibo for Smash Bros. SP up to "Mien Mien", and now we're announcing that amiibo for the following fighters will also be released!
Steve's amiibo will be released in the spring of 2022. Steve" amiibo will be released in the spring of 2022, and "Alex" amiibo will be released as well.
The "Steve" amiibo and "Alex" amiibo will be released in the spring of 2022, and we can't wait to see them!
And although we don't know when they will be released, amiibo of Sephiroth, Homura, Hikari, and Kazuya will be released as well!
Let's look forward to more information about them!
And if they are going to release "Kazuya", we can expect "Sora" as well! Let's look forward to more information on that as well!
You can play "Kingdom Hearts" on Nintendo Switch!
Along with the announcement that "Sora" will be joining Smash Bros.
The " Kingdom Hearts" series will now be playable on the Nintendo Switch!
Three titles, "Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 + 2.5 Remix," "Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue," and "Kingdom Hearts III," will be available via cloud gaming.
The "Kingdom Hearts" series has released quite a few titles, but by playing these three titles, you will be able to follow the story of "Sora" to the very end!
If you know the original story, it will be more fun to use Sora in Smash Bros.
If you haven't played it yet, please take this opportunity to play it!
If you haven't played it yet, please take this opportunity to play it!
This is really the last one!
At the end of "How to use Sora," we will reveal the achievements of Smash Bros.
It would be tactless to talk about them here. Please check them out in the video!
We at Saiga NAK have also introduced you to the new fighters whenever they are announced, and we have really enjoyed holding Smash Bros. SP matchups in the editorial office whenever a new fighter is released.
This is the last time we will be broadcasting Smash Bros. SP, but Sora will not be released until October 19. And the fighters will only be able to play once they've been delivered!
Smash Bros. SP is not over yet! Let's get the whole world involved in a big brawl today!
