Ultimate?YESNOWhile Super Smash Bros. Ultimate was originally launched in 2018, its final character, Kingdom Hearts’ Sora, wasn’t added to the roster until October of this year. As the game has added 11 different characters to its selection over the years, it’s been necessary to make a number of balance updates and character tweaks to the game during that time to account for the resulting changes.In total, 24 of the different in-game characters have seen adjustments during the final update. While changes have been made to the game’s newest arrival, notable changes have taken place for the likes of Street Fighter’s Ryu (who has benefitted from some pretty substantial buffs) as well as Link, Mega Man, and more. Although a number of characters will have benefitted from the update, one character who certainly hasn’t is Min Min from Arms. The character has seen a number of nerfs including reduced power against shields when punching, increased vulnerability when landing, and a reduction in the duration of Dragon’s Beam.
