Cloud Strife is Coming to SUPER SMASH BROS!

Almost as if to remind us that Nintendo is the reason we even still have video games, the Super Smash Bros. series has been collecting third-party characters like it is nobodies business. But today, in a complete twist that nobody saw coming, they are announcing the addition of Final Fantasy's most iconic protagonist: Cloud Strife! It's like my formative gaming years are colliding head long in a "you got your chocolate in my peanut butter" situation. I haven't been this excited to see a Final Fantasy VII character in a fighting game since the first time I stumbled upon an Ehrgeiz: God Bless the Ring cabinet at my neighborhood arcade.

The DLC Pack will include Cloud with a classic costume and an Advent Children alternate costume, the Midgar arena level with summons that attack from the background, and Chocobo costumes for your Mii fighters!
