Before Min Min’s announcement, Byleth had been the latest DLC fighter forSmash Ultimateand the last one to close out the first fighter’s pass for the game. While some players were excited to see Byleth joining the game, others thought that the character was an underwhelming choice for the hype they were receiving. Min Min is having the opposite reaction, and while Twitter is also trending with fans who wantedTwinbelleto bring some diversity to the cast of white human fighters in the game, many are happy with Min Min’s inclusion toSmash.
Fans were also quick to point out that Min Min is the first female fighter added through theSmashexpansion passes. While the player can choose whetherBylethis a man or a woman inFire Emblem: Three Houses, theSmashfighter’s default is the masculine version with feminine portrayals of the character are only alternate costumes. Min Min is bringing some gender variety the fighters thatSmashhas been adding through downloadable content, and the character looks like she is going to throw some good punches in the arena starting June 29.
While some fans didn’t appreciate the way Byleth was included inSmash Ultimate, hopefully Min Min will give Smash players what they’re looking for in theexpansion pass fighters. With the second fighter’s pass off to such a hyped start, fans are excited to see what other characters will be following for this DLC package.
