The moment all fans have been wai👍ting for is finally here - Not only is Sephiroth being added to the roster,⛄ but you can play him b𝕴efore the official release of the DLC. Masahiro Sakurai  that 𓂃players would be able to play Sephiroth before his official December 22, 2020. How is this possible? It's thanks to a special challenge battle.

When talking about the addition of Sephiroth to the Smash Bros. roster, Sakurai noted that he wanted to highlight Sephiroth as💟 a new character and not 𒅌just let him get lost in the crowd. The fighter’s screen, after all, is already loaded to the brim with amazing characters to pick from, and new additions to this line up can easily become just another part of the noise.

In or🍒der to avoid this, Sakurai decided to create a special limited-time event to highlight the newest addition to the Smash family. For all players who have either purchased the Sephiroth DLC or who own the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Fighting Pass Vol. 2, a small pop up in the corner of your screen💝 will allow you to do the “Sephiroth Challenge.” This challenge is a limited-time event, so you’ll want to participate ASAP to reap the rewards.
