Super Smash Bros. Ultimate for the Nintendo Switch has been announced, and it will include the Metroid villain Ridley and a December release date.
Today, during the E3 2018 Nintendo press Conference, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate was announced for the Nintendo Switch, and it looks to bring the entire roster of the Super Smash Bros. Universe to the hybrid mobile console with some new additions.
One of these new additions is the Metroid villain Ridley, as the giant creature will be making its debut in the popular fighting game franchise for the very first time. The new character had been rumored to possibly be a member of the Nintendo Switch Super Smash Bros. game, but no official confirmation from the company regarding Ridley had been announced, until today's showcase was shown to hundreds of thousands of viewers.
