Lucas Returns To ‘Super Smash Bros.’ On June 14th!

Nintendo has announced that on June 14th, Super Smash Bros. will receive its next DLC update, including Brawl favorite, Lucas.

Hailing from the Game Boy Advance RPG, Mother 3, (which STILL has yet to be released in the West,) Lucas looks like he’s bringing all the abilities he had from his last appearance. Similar to Mother 2/Earthbound star, Ness at first glance, each of Lucas’ special moves have different properties. Relying more on his trademark PSI moves for his standard attacks, these moves extend his reach with most moves while relying less on tools. Top that off with his trusty Rope Snake for long range grabbing or edge tethering, and it’s easy to see why Lucas was so missed.

Previously announced alongside Mewtwo’s release date, Lucas will release for $3.99 for one version of Smash, or $4.99 for both the Wii U and 3DS. In addition, a free Miiverse themed stage, and the Splatoon costume pack for the playable Mii characters, (which will be free for those who kept their GameStop pick up receipts for the new shooter,) will also be added, helping an already large game get that much bigger.

What characters do you hope join the battle next?
