Nintendo announces the new addition to the roster of fighters for the Nintendo Switch title. It is part of the so-called Fighter Pass Vol. 2.
Nintendo has revealed during the Nintendo Direct this February that Pyra will be the new playable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate for Nintendo Switch. Rex’s sidekick in the celebrated Xenoblade Chronicles 2 (2017, Nintendo Switch), the character teams up alongside his alternate personality Mythra; that she is also the companion Blade of Addam in Torna - The Golden Country, the additional DLC of the video game. Its premiere will take place this March.
As with other characters, Pyra / Mythra will arrive accompanied by her music, movements and scenery, although it will be later when we learn more details about her special attacks and what differences there are beyond aesthetics between both personalities.
