Apparently the 'leaker' who said Byleth was going to be the new fighter is now claiming that Crash Bandicoot is the next fighter to be revealed. That person is a VERY blatant fake. They had no eyes on them whatsoever before someone just happened to discover them and they've basically never tweeted about anything BUT Smash Bros. It's pretty damn obvious someone set up an account, set it to private, put a bunch of fake leak shit on there, then when something they called happened they deleted everything they got wrong, went public, and "discovered" their own Twitter to get people talking. not to mention Byleth is a pretty easy guess...

Nothing new being revealed in this graphic, but just an update for what's to come so far in 2020 I had completely forgotten about Trials of Mana

So the developers of Doom pretty much came out and said there've been no talks about Doomguy being in Smash Bros., and of course a bunch of people are trying to come up with some way to spin that into something different or saying they're lying. Despite the fact even denying it would be violating an NDA.

Honestly, given Japan's antipathy towards FPS games and how much the game itself is tied to extreme violence that would effect Ultimate's rating if even hinted at, a Mii Gunner Costume was always going to be Doom Slayer's ceiling.

Aside from maybe the music, it's more likely if Smash Bros. adds a Bethesda character, they'd add the Dovakhan/Dragonborn given Todd Howard's Skyrim fetish and the popularity of said game in Japan.

My personal conspiracy theory is that there's a reason we've seen zero sign of Dragalia Lost despite having a song from Heroes in. Could see from Nintendo's perspective where it'd be very tempting to get somebody from it in given the way Smash Bros. pretty much elevates the stock of every character it touches in any capacity - that'd be a very handy thing for selling a gacha game.
Also kind of inclined to think there's a reason Sakurai randomly started talking about playing BotW early and about that Zelda's prospects and that it's we're getting a version of her based on BotW2. Also feels fishy we've still seen zero sign of Geno's Mii skin, though I think that's a lot more likely to result in the Sans treatment than him actually making the roster even though I super want him to.

Personally I think the Geno skin not being released yet is a sign Sora is coming to Smash. Most Mii costumes released with new fighters fit with the theme, so another Square Enix character would be the time to rerelease the Geno skin and the Chocobo hat. Probably get the Lloyd Irving costume as well since that's also from a JRPG.
And this is just a pipe dream, but wouldn't it be nice if new Final Fantasy costumes came with actual godforsaken music from the series?

How does Cuphead tie in to Byleth? or Sans and Terry for that matter... For Zelda... I've always been a bit surprised they didn't make a Toon Zelda/Tetra to fit with Link... easier now that Sheik and Zelda aren't tied they could have the flat out Pirate based attack Tetra... maybe with her final smash Transforming into Zelda and using the light arrows. (though they did take one of Toon Zelda's moves and give it to regular Zelda)

I hadn't heard that... but not entirely unsurprised. but they made a big deal in Smash Wii U about wanting more female fighters... and like Tetra is right there >_>

I can deal with Crash. I'd enjoy Geno. But with Blyeth now in... can we move away from sword fighters for a bit? Let's get some weird ones like Pac-man or Banjo Kazooie, or more icons. We haven't seen the double dragon guys in a while... that might be cool. Battletoads? I'd take another street fighter or someone from Tekken. Or a bald bull or king hippo would be great as well.

Joker had Persona costumes and the return of Tails and Knuckles. Hero had all DQ-related costumes, and Terry had SNK fighters as well as the return of the Virtua Fighters. The next JRPG representative would be a good way to bring the JRPG-related costumes back.

Most of Byleth's moves aren't sowrd ones, and even much of those have them using the sword as a whip, so, eh, really not much of a sword fighter, especially since they don't have a counter move, bringing them even further away from the others. That said, sure, I'd like to see them go for something a little more off the beaten path, like a Lara Croft or sure, Billy and Jimmy or something.
