It seems like Super Smash Bros. Ultimate has gone from strength to strength since its release back in December of last year in which the game itself scored very well indeed just on its own.

Since then the game has had numerous updates and a large amount of DLC which can be obtained via the very reasonably priced Fighters Pass from which we have now had all but one of five main fighters with the latest combatant being Terry Bogard from the Fatal Fury series.

Check below for the latest info and a link to the recently aired presentation which is well worth a watch...

Get ready, the king of fighters has arrived! For the first time ever, The Legendary Wolf, Terry Bogard from the FATAL FURY series, enters the battle as a playable fighter in the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate game for the Nintendo Switch system. In a new video, Masahiro Sakurai, the director of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, showcased Terry Bogard in action and unveiled the King of Fighters Stadium stage and 50 music tracks from an assortment of SNK titles, all coming to Super Smash Bros. Ultimate today. All of this new content will be available to players who own the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Fighters Pass or purchase Challenger Pack 4 separately.* To view the video in its entirety, visit https://www.smashbros.com/en_US/.

“By featuring an iconic fighting game character like Terry Bogard, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate expands its legacy as the quintessential love letter to the past and future of gaming,” said Nick Chavez, Nintendo of America’s Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing. “As Super Smash Bros. Ultimate continues to grow its roster of fighters, stages and music through downloadable content, we hope players will enjoy meeting both new friends and familiar faces that bring the game to life in unexpected ways.”

Terry Bogard’s addition to the roster will inject even more variety into the epic collection of heated battles in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. Terry has appeared in more than 80 games spanning the past three decades, first taking the world by storm in 1991 when he pummeled his opponents in the legendary SNK arcade game, FATAL FURY: KING OF FIGHTERS. With his trademark ball cap and confident smile, Terry has since grown into a mainstay in the fighting game community and a mascot for SNK. Players interested in exploring more of Terry Bogard’s history can also play several classic fighting games that feature him in Nintendo eShop on Nintendo Switch, including ACA NEOGEO FATAL FURY, ACA NEOGEO FATAL FURY SPECIAL, ACA NEOGEO THE KING OF FIGHTERS ’95, ACA NEOGEO REAL BOUT FATAL FURY SPECIAL, ACA NEOGEO THE KING OF FIGHTERS ’98 and ACA NEOGEO GAROU: MARK OF THE WOLVES.

In a fitting tribute to his NEO GEO roots, Terry Bogard’s move set bridges the classical arcade fighting gameplay of the FATAL FURY series with the signature play style of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. This unique lineage means Terry plays unlike any other fighter on the roster, giving players new opportunities for creative expression through his unmistakable fighting flair. Terry’s introduction to the roster also means the addition of the new King of Fighters Stadium stage and 50 music tracks from an assortment of SNK titles. Finally, a free update for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate that includes improvements to the Battle Arena, as well as other features, will also be available today.

By purchasing the Fighters Pass, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate players will get access to five Challenger Packs. Each pack includes a new playable fighter, a new stage and music tracks. Joker, Hero and Banjo & Kazooie are all available now, with Terry Bogard joining today. One additional fighter, who has yet to be revealed, is also included in the Fighters Pass, and will be available for download at a later date. For more information about Super Smash Bros.

And here's the video for anyone who hasn't seen it yet or might want to check it out again...

What did you think of this latest presentation? Did you enjoy watching Sakurai show off Terry Bogard to the fullest extent of his abilities? Or are you still mourning the lack of Mai Shiranui not being represented as a background SNK character? (Smash is a family friendly game though so it's understandable and with everything else included in the latest update we can't say that we're too disappointed even though her inclusion would have been nice)
