One of the most popular theories is that theSuper Smash Bros. UltimateARMSDLC character is Twinbelle, though fans also think that Ribbon Girl or Spring Man will be featured instead. Some have also put forward the theory that theARMSDLC character will have a variety of characters from that game’s roster as its alternate costumes, but that sounds a little too good to be true. The speculation will continue until June 22 when Sakurai finally reveals whichARMScharacter is coming toSuper Smash Bros. Ultimate.
After theARMSDLC comes toSuper Smash Bros. Ultimate, there will still be five additional fighters added to the game, and they could be just about anyone. We know that fan campaigns won’t influence who the characters are since Nintendo has already decided on them, but we don’t know who they will be. If nothing else, theSuper Smash Bros.

After all,Banjo-Kazooie is inSuper Smash Bros. Ultimate, despite the characters being owned by Nintendo rival Microsoft. A variety of other third-party characters are on the roster as well, so it’s really hard to predict who might be next.
