Kingdom Hearts‘ Sora is the final fighter to be added in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate‘s Challenger Pack 11 DLC. Square Enix’s beloved action RPG series is a mashup of Final Fantasy and Disney worlds.
Nintendo revealed on Tuesday that Kingdom Hearts‘ Sora will be the final addition to Super Smash Bros. Ultimate’s substantial roster of fighters—and the fan-favorite Square Enix-Disney action RPG series will be coming to the Switch via cloud gaming.
Announced in a final showcase hosted by director Masahiro Sakurai, Ultimate‘s Challenger Pack 11 DLC will feature Kingdom Hearts‘ hero, the twelfth new DLC fighter since Super Mario’s Piranha Plant was added in January 2019. Sora employs his elemental magic attacks and his signature weapon, the Keyblade. The update will be available for download later this month.

Sora and his friends visit these worlds. (2002’s original Kingdom Hearts launched a year before the company then known as Squaresoft merged with Enix, so the latter’s Dragon Quest series has never been added to the universe.)
