Last night big changes were made to Super Smash Bros. Patch 1.1.0 was released for the game, adding multiple new features and balance adjustments. The biggest additions were a Tourney Mode that allows for Community and Regular tournaments, though replay YouTube uploads, Hyrule Castle and Peach’s Castle stages, Mii costumes, and general balancing adjustments were added to the game.
The new Super Smash Bros DLC content and prices are as follows.
- Bear Suit Mii Outfit – $0.75 for one version, $1.15 for both

Over 40 Super Smash Bros characters have been rebalanced as part of the patch. Reddit user Kenniky compiled a full list of changes, which you can read below. For reference, here’s a glossary of abbreviations used within the notes. FAF/IASA translates to First Active Frame and Intteruptible As Soon As. KBG/BKB/WBKB are Knock Back Growth, Base Knock Back, and Weighted Knock Back. U, D, F, B, and N before words like air or tilt refer to aerial and tilt attacks.
