Mario is one of the most iconic Nintendo characters. The Mario Super Smash Bros. franchise rose to fame quickly due to its main character and the abundance of other Nintendo fan favorites in the game. Over the years, more characters from other gaming franchises have been introduced into the game to give fans a wider selection of characters.
Some of the biggest additions to the game’s roster were Sonic the Hedgehog, Solid Snake from Konami’s Metal Gear series, and most recently, Tekken’s Kazuya Mishima. Nintendo made this announcement at the recent E3 2021 digital event that took place. Kazuya Mishima will be the 85th character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. This leaves a spot for one final character.

The 343 Industries Community Director, Brian Jarrad took to Twitter asking Xbox chief Phill Spencer and Nintendo chief Doug Bowser to make this iconic crossover a reality. He wrote, “As a long-time fan of both games, it would be amazing to have a Chief/Smash announcement today.”
