Today on Super Smash Bros. Ultimate livestream presentation, series creator Masahiro Sakurai revealed that DLC fighter Terry Bogard will be playable from today.
Terry's moveset will be same as Fatal Fury and King of Fighters games. The Somersault Kick is a new move for Ultimate, but everything else will be instantly recognisable. He can even parry into a counter attacking uppercut, and cancel into special moves that lead to devastating combos. There's also a shorter range Power Wave that he can use when airborne.
Terry's Final Smash begins with Triple Geyser before transitioning into Power Dunk and Buster Wolf, combining three special moves into one powerful attack. He also adopts a new mechanic for Ultimate, whereby a "Go!" icon will appear next to his attack damage once it rises above 100%, allowing him to use more powerful versions of Power Geyser and Buster Wolf as super special moves that are high risk, high return.
Smash Bros. Ultimate 6.0 Update Brings Terry Bogard Along With Big Patch Notes
There are also numerous color variations, and Terry has taunts that use both old and new voices. A new KOF coliseum-style stage is also introduced as part of his character pack. The edge of the screen is walled off in this stage, forcing you to break through in order to knock your opponent off, making it much more like a traditional fighting game stage. There are a total of 20 cameos included.
Sakurai noted that Mai is not included because "Smash is for good boys and girls of all ages."
On top of all this, there are 50 tracks worth of music included that pulls from SNK's entire library of video games.
Terry Bogard's Challenger Pack launches today, November 6, for $6. He's also included as part of the $25 Fighter's Pass, which still has one more unrevealed fighter to add to the game.
