Last week’s Super Smash Bros. Ultimate blog updates included an introduction to several fighters – R.O.B., Captain Falcon, and Jigglypuff, plus other things like a Galaga medley and the Lylat Cruise stage.
#42 R.O.B.
He has two powerful projectiles: Robo Beam and Gyro, along with a very effective recovery. The 1P color in the North American version of the game is a light gray, and the 2P is red and white, but this is reversed in the Japanese version.
#11 Captain Falcon
A fighter that possesses both speed and power! But in exchange, he is frequently left open. Being able to successfully land his neutral special, Falcon Punch, can greatly influence the battle in multiplayer matches.
#12 Jigglypuff
Jigglypuff can jump 5 times in the air and can move faster in the air than on the ground. Use Jigglypuff’s great aerial ability to overwhelm your opponent! If you manage to land the down special Rest, you can powerfully launch your opponent.
Fake Smash Ball – New Item
This dangerous item looks like a Smash Ball but explodes when you break it.
Take a closer look and you can see that the symbol’s horizontal line is thicker…
Lylat Cruise – Stage
Galaga Medley (Galaga) – New arrangement
You can now listen to “Galaga Medley.” This song, arranged by Yusuke Takahama, consists of 4 songs and sound effects from the game. It’s like recreating the gameplay in sequence!
Arrangement supervisor: Yusuke Takahama (best known for work on Glory of Heracles series, various Super Smash Bros. arrangements such as ‘Tunnel Scene’ and ‘Fire Field’)
Here’s a link to the other remixes and arrangements, and other character features so far:
