Super Smash Bros. Ultimate's newest fighter will come as part of Fighters Pass Vol. 2 by Dec. 31, 2021. All six characters (including those that haven't been announced just yet) as well as new stages and music, will soon be revealed. Sephiroth follows a long line of characters from non-Nintendo franchises, like Persona 5's Joker, Dragon Quest's Hero, and Fatal Fury/The King of Fighters' Terry Bogard.
As is usually the case with new characters heading to Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, we’ll likely be seeing a separate Nintendo Direct covering Sephiroth’s moveset and what to expect from him in the coming weeks before players can officially get their hands on him.
