Super Smash Bros. Announced For Switch In 2018

by Imran Khan on Mar 08, 2018 at 04:42 PM

At the end of today's Nintendo Direct, the company revealed a short teaser video announcing a new Super Smash Bros. game for the Nintendo Switch.

The video featured Inklings shooting and swimming through ink in a white void-like area mirroring the original Splatoon announcement trailer, though this eventually grows dark. The female inkling takes notice of the burning Super Smash Bros. logo – a circle with two intersecting lines – as a large crowd gathers in front. Quick flashes seem to show Breath of the Wild's Link and a quick cut to text.

In an email, Nintendo said "The Super Smash Bros. series comes to Nintendo Switch in 2018. The teaser trailer featured recognizable faces like Mario, Link and the Inklings from the Splatoon series."
