Masahiro Sakurai, the creator of Super Smash Bros., reacted enthusiastically to the Nintendo Switch 2 announcement, sparking fervent fan speculation about a new installment in the popular fighting game series. Sakurai shared the Japanese announcement of the April 2nd Switch 2 reveal with a simple, excited "Ooh!" While this could be mere enthusiasm, fans are hopeful it foreshadows a new Super Smash Bros. title.
Although the post itself is ambiguous, several subtle hints suggest Sakurai might be preparing a new Super Smash Bros. reveal. His 2022 YouTube channel, subsequently closed, hinted at a new project, promising a future unveiling.
AnswerSee ResultsWhile no official announcement has been made, the immense success of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate (over 35.88 million copies sold) and Nintendo's history of releasing a new Super Smash Bros. game for each console generation strongly suggest a Switch 2 iteration is highly probable. Sakurai himself previously expressed uncertainty about surpassing the scope of Ultimate, which already boasts a roster including iconic characters from outside Nintendo's franchises (Sephiroth, Sora, Joker, Steve, and many more). Nevertheless, the anticipation for a new entry remains high.
