Nintendo has announced that Kayuza from the Tekken fighting games will be the latest character to join Super Smash Bros. Ultimate at its E3 2021 Nintendo Direct presentation. Additional details are promised at a future presentation on June 28th.
The character marks the latest classic fighting game character to join Nintendo’s flagship fighter, joining characters like Street Fighter’s Ryu or Fatal Fury’s Terry Bogard.
Kayuza is the fifth DLC character to be added to Super Smash Bros. Ultimate’s second Fighters Pass. Previous additions included Min Min from Arms, Minecraft mascots Steve and Alex, Final Fantasy VII villain Sephiroth, and Xenoblade Chronicles 2’s Pyra and Mythra (the two count as a single character) released in February.
The Fighters Pass costs $29.99 for six characters, with a final character — who, barring any changes, will be the last fighter added to Smash Bros. Ultimate — who should be announced later this year. Players who don’t want the full collection can also pay $5.99 for each character individually.

Smash Bros. Ultimate also still has its original Fighters Pass, which costs $24.99 and includes five additional characters: Joker from Persona 5, Hero from Dragon Quest, Banjo and Kazooie from Banjo-Kazooie, Terry Bogard from The King of Fighters, and Byleth from Fire Emblem: Three Houses.
