There will be a broadcast on Saturday, October 3rd at 10:30 AM ET/ 7:30 AM PT that dives much deeper on their play designs. Thats when the release date for the characters will be revealed, too.
You can rewatch the statement here (avoid to 29:42 for the action).
Nintendo revealed today that Steve and Alex from Minecraft will be included to the character lineup in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate for the Nintendo Switch. This is the second character announcement in the Fighter Pass Vol. 2 DLC thats offered for $29.99, following Min from Arms. There are 4 brand-new fighters yet to be revealed for the DLC.
If for some reason you have not leapt into the video game yet, the very first Fighters Pass, readily available as an add-on for $24.99, added a multitude of interesting characters to its already-packed lineup. Youll get Dragon Quest XIs hero, Banjo-Kazooie, Byleth from Fire Emblem: Three Houses, Joker from Persona 5, and Fatal Furys Terry Bogard.
Gamers will be able to play as Steve or Alex, and swap to Enderman, or a Zombie as options. The games director, Masahiro Sakurai, described following the announcement that Steve and the blocky Minecraft design provided a huge challenge for the team.
