In the past, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate showed that characters from non-Nintendo game franchises such as Tekken could make it into a Smash Brothers game.

So, many fans have been speculating about who will be the final fighter to join the battle. Some fans hoped that Dante from Devil May Cry would be added to the game, while others hoped for Halo’s Master Chief.

Meanwhile, the Youtube chat was truly convinced that rapper Kanye West would be the game’s final fighter.

Fans of Nintendo logged onto Nintendo’s Twitch and Youtube channel to finally find out who would be the new fighter for Super Smash Bros: Ultimate.

However, Nintendo announced that fans will need to wait a little longer for the reveal of Super Smash Bros: Ultimate’s final fighter.
