In the heat of everyone still enjoying Kingom Hearts 3, Nintendo has silently released an update for Super Smash Bros Ultimate. The game adds some changes to the spirit board, and more importantly, adds Piranha Plant to the roster as the 75th playable character. Admittedly I am a bit surprised since they seemed to be teasing his addition for sometime in February.

If you havent already, you can still register your game with Nintendo to receive Piranha Plant until January 31. Then all you need to do is update the game to version 2.0.0 and you will unlock Piranha Plant on startup.

Worst night to do this. Still gonna play as the plant

Awesome! Hope I registered correctly.

Along with Piranha Plant we also get a bunch of nerfs and buffs.

Does anyone know if Plant is confirmed to be a girl? (the Palutena Guidance where Palutena says "she" is referring to Viridi).

Anyways, Plant's pretty fun, now give me my Shujin Academy delinquent!

It wont download for me. It's just eternally stuck on paused

Edit: Never mind it's fine now.

just fyi

I saw that shortly after posting. I suppose Piranha Plant is a girl then, although dont forget it is a plant, and doesnt have proper genders like a person would.

the best confirmed DLC character so far, nice.

Is kinda majestic just seeing a potted plant running around.
