“With the addition of Kazuya Mishima from TEKKEN, another long-standing historic video game franchise joins the list of Super Smash Bros. UltimateSaid Nick Chavez, senior vice president of sales and marketing for Nintendo of America. “The new fighters presented Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Thanks to the downloadable content, gives players even more ways to fight, with additional strategies to improve themselves and new skills to learn.
Debut over 25 years ago in the original TEKKEN game, Kazuya Mishima is one of the most recognizable faces in the fighting game series. Kazuya leaves the arenas of TEKKEN, where players must understand the space between characters and focus on where to strike their opponents in a 3D plane, on the battlefields of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, where players must attack their enemies across 2D heights and distances. Due to this change in the dimensions of the gameplay, Kazuya demonstrates a special skill set in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate compared to his TEKKEN roots.
In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Kazuya’s main attacks are similar to his combat moves in TEKKEN, but to give him the air jumps, smash attacks, and special moves that the Super Smash Bros. series is known for, its devil’s power is harnessed. In later games of the TEKKEN series, Kazuya can transform into a powerful winged demon. Players will notice that Kazuya activates this devil power for various jumps, smash attacks, and special moves in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.
The new stage that players will receive in Challenger Pack 10, Mishima Dojo, is the Mishima family dojo – specifically Kazuya’s father, Heihachi. The dojo is closed in all directions, but its walls and ceiling can be shattered by strong attacks, turning the stage into dangerous terrain. Without floating platforms, the Mishima Dojo scene is more entrenched than many other scenes in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, requiring new strategies when tackling it.
After downloading Challenger Pack 10, players will also receive 39 pieces of music from the TEKKEN series, containing a mix of songs from earlier and newer games in the franchise. Additionally, alongside Kazuya Mishima, new paid Mii Fighter costumes will be released, including Shantae, Lloyd Irving, Dante, and Dragonborn.
For those looking to arm themselves with even more Super Smash Bros. fun, a new one Super Smash Bros. Ultimate amiibo is on its way! Min Min, the fighter noodle girl of ARMS, will be available for purchase at select retailers in 2022.
