At the Game Awards 2018, Nintendo revealed what’s next for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. Joker from Persona 5 will join the roster sometime next year as the game’s 76th fighter, a new trailer revealed. The protagonist of one of last year’s best RPGs will be among the first fighters to be available as DLC.
Joker is the name of the Phantom Thief lead of Persona 5. Players can choose his civilian name, but he and the rest of his teen crew switch to using these codenames — and their very good costumes — when they enter various realms to help solve some serious existential mysteries and crimes. Persona 5 is only playable on PlayStation consoles, making this the character and game’s first appearance on Switch.
