Perhaps the biggest news fromSuper Smash Bros. Ultimaterecently is the announcement thatTekken’s Kazuya will be a playable fighter, but Nintendo isn’t done revealing new content. The company released a fresh trailer that shows Dante, fromDevil May Cry, will alsosort ofbe joining the cast. A new Mii Fighter costume of the devil hunter will be available soon, along with three other costumes from other popular franchises.
While it wasn’t the exact way players wanted Dante to come toSuper Smash Bros. Ultimate, it’s certainly better than nothing. Nintendo announced the next line-up of Mii Fighter costumes, which include Lloyd, fromTales of Symphonia, Shantae, from theShantaeseries, the Dragonborn, fromSkyrim, and Dante. They will all be available as costumes for the Swordfighter Mii, with the exception of Shantae, who is a Brawler. Interested fans can check out the announcement trailer to see the costumes in action.

This marks the 10th Mii Fighter Costume pack, which will release on June 14, 2025, alongside Kazuya. The newest fighter was announced during E3 2021, where Nintendo arguably stole the conference when it not only revealed the new character, but alsoMetroid Dreadand anew trailer forBreath of the Wild 2.The Kazuya announcement came after a very humorous trailer that showed the character dropping other fighters from the game off a cliff, as is tradition in the Mishima family. Later, Nintendo took time to showKazuya’s attacks and abilitiesin a gameplay video.
It appears players are never able to accurately guess what playable fighters are coming next to the game because Nintendo has a habit of surprising fans. No one expected a character fromTekkento join the ranks, but it was a welcome sight. Players are alreadysuggesting Kazuya’s victory screen. Nintendo has done well to include a lot of the character’s quirks from the series already, so it probably has a good one planned.
With the release of Kazuya, there remains one more open spot on theSmash Bros. Ultimateroster. As always, fans are speculating on who it will be. While Nintendo has been flexible with the many, many franchises it has included, there are still limitations. There are a lot of characters that players want to join, such as Master Chief from theHaloseries and Doom Guy fromDOOM. However, they will probably just have to acceptDoom Guy is probably never joiningthe game. Dante has also been an often-requested fighter and his inclusion as a costume feels like Nintendo is throwing fans a bone.
