- This Might Be The Next DLC Fighter For Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.
- Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Next DLC Fighter
If you’ve been following the latest Super Smash Bros. Ultimate news, you’d have probably heard about the DLC fighter codenamed Brave that many speculate to be Dragon Quest’s Erdrick.
Today Shinya Kumazaki, game supervisor for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, posted an interesting photo on his personal Instagram. Kumazaki uploaded a photo of Kirby and Erdrick’s shield. Not only that, he referred to the shield as “Brave’s Shield”.
As Erdrick’s official Japanese name is Roto, this is obviously Kumazaki referring to Erdrick’s codename in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, probably by accident.
This rumour became a little bit more believable when a "reliable dataminer" supposedly revealed the codenames for the upcoming DLC Season Pass fighters. One of these characters went by the name Brave - an apparent reference to a Dragon Quest hero. In Japan, this class is called Yuusha, which directly translates to 'brave' in English.
