Geno from Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars is coming to Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, but probably not in the way that fans have long hoped for. Smash Bros. game director Masahiro Sakurai revealed that Geno is coming to the party fighting game as downloadable content, but only in the form of a Mii Fighter costume.
Sakurai revealed Geno for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate as part of a larger deep dive into Sephiroth, the game’s next DLC fighter. Other Final Fantasy 7 characters will also get representation in Ultimate, including Barrett, Tifa, and Aerith, but also as Mii Fighter costumes for the Gunner, Brawler, and Swordfighter, respectively. A Chocobo hat is also coming to Ultimate as part of Mii Fighter Round 8 costumes.
The addition of Geno for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate as a Mii Fighter will be bittersweet for fans. Geno has long been a fan-requested character, one that Sakurai himself has said he considered adding to the game, and his inclusion as a Mii Fighter would likely rule him out as one of Ultimate’s remaining DLC fighters. Geno was previously available in the form of a Mii Fighter costume for Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and Nintendo 3DS.
