Pyra and Mythra Smash Ultimate Release Date, Differences Revealed in Demo
On 3/4/21 at 10:12 AM EST
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate players were treated to a special demo of Pyra and Mythra by series director Masahiro Sakurai on Thursday. Sakurai presented details of Pyra and Mythra s play styles to the Smash community and revealed a March 4 release date.
As is custom with these special demo streams, Sakurai also gave details on the new stage and how each character fights. Pyra and Mythra, while different characters in
Xenoblade Chronicles 2, are being paired up for
Smash Ultimate. However, this isn t a Minecraft Steve/Alex situation where both characters fight the same.
With each new addition to the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate official roster comes a collection of other content along with it to continually customize your Mii Fighter characters. Pyra and Mythra are on their way to the Smash Ultimate roster from Xenoblade Chronicles 2, so of course that means we’re getting new costumes as well. This time around, the new Mii Fighter costumes will be coming from Monster Hunter and Ghosts ‘n Goblins, and they launch today.

Pyra and Mythra were given a launch date of later the same day, and with them come the new costumes.

Sakurai said the addition of new Mii Fighter costumes based on Monster Hunter which consists of the Rathalos Armor and Helm, and the Hunter Armor and Helm for the Swordfighter class, as well as a Felyne hat are timed with the imminent release of
Monster Hunter Rise. Capcom will bring that game to Nintendo Switch on March 26.
But with just two more characters coming to
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate in the game’s Fighters Pass Vol. 2, fans aren’t hopeful that they’ll get a stand-alone Monster Hunter fighter on the game’s roster.
Nintendo revealed as part of a lengthy deep dive about the new Super Smash Bros. Ultimate two-in-one DLC fighter Pyra/Mythra early today that fans won t have to wait long to get their hands on the latest and greatest characters to join the battle as the new DLC is set to release today as well.
