Dante from the Devil May Weep games has long rumored to exist one of the next characters in the massive crossover title Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. Afterwards many simulated alarms, fans held out hope that the demon hunter would eventually make it into the roster through the 2d DLC Fighters Pass. With Capcom characters like Mega Man and Street Fighter's Ryu and Ken already making the cut, the likelihood of Dante being the next Capcom representative was seen as rather high.

That doesn't appear to be the case anymore, every bit Nintendo's latest video presentation from game director Masahiro Sakurai, which demonstrated Tekken'south Kazuya Mishima, showcased some Mii Fighter costumes that announced to take disconfirmed Dante's possible entry. Dante from the Devil May Weep series volition be represented in Super Blast Bros. Ultimate through a costume for the Mii Swordfighter character, and so your Mii can don his red leather coat and his longsword.

It almost feels similar a rite of passage to experience burned by a Mii Costume reveal — past putting these third-party collaborations in a spotlight, fans take it as Nintendo indicating that this is all that will be done with these properties. Like outcries of disappointment came from Mii Costume reveals of Sans from Undertale and Geno from Super Mario RPG. At the very to the lowest degree, incorporating characters like Dante in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is an acknowledgment of the popularity of these characters and a possible sign that Sakurai and Nintendo at least considered using these characters.
