The next Super Smash Bros. Ultimate DLC character is a character that very few expected to see in a game such as Smash Ultimate.

During this year’s edition of The Game Awards, Sephiroth from Final Fantasy VII has been confirmed as the next character to hit the game later this month. The character will come with all of his iconic special moves, the Masamune sword and his theme song, One Winged Angel.

To see the character in action, you can take a look at the trailer below.

Sephiroth will officially join the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate roster this month, but we won’t have to wait much longer to see him in action. A new Super Smash Bros. Ultimate presentation focused on the character will be held on December 12.

The one-winged angel, Sephiroth from the @FINALFANTASY series, joins #SmashBrosUltimate as a DLC fighter later this month! Tune in at 2pm PT on 12/17 for a presentation from director Masahiro Sakurai all about the DLC fighter, including the release date! pic.twitter.com/zRaZCSZkrn

While Sephiroth will be an extremely welcome addition to the roster, he definitely cannot compare in terms of innovation with Steve from Minecraft, the previous DLC character released for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. Steve comes with so many unique mechanics that manage to combine the typical Smash experience with that of Minecraft, something that was quite difficult to do.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is now available on Nintendo Switch. Sephiroth will be released later this month.
