The first Smash Ultimate DLC delivers a great fighter with Persona 5’s Joker. His fighting is balanced well even though he’s pretty bad in the air. Luckily Arcane has his back and that’s just one example of the great fanservice this DLC has to offer.

Overview
Joker steals the show when he joins the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate game as a playable fighter! This speedy fighter wields a knife and a gun to rack up damage. When his Rebellion Gauge is full, Joker summons his Persona, Arsene, to immediately power up his attacks for a limited time. This pack also includes Mementos, a stage that changes colors, depending on which music track is playing! The leader of the Phantom Thieves of Hearts, Joker from Persona 5, sneaks into Super Smash Bros. Ultimate in Challenger Pack 1! This set also contains a new stage, Mementos, music from the Persona series, a Joker route in Classic Mode, and a Persona-themed DLC Spirit Board.

Reception
Joker has set the bar very high, and I can’t wait to see what they do to raise it with the next character they release.
The Joker Challenger Pack is a great addition both for Persona fans and those looking to add another unique fighter to Super Smash Bros. Ultimate's already diverse roster.
Between Joker, Mementos, Stage Builder, and Shared Content, the 3.0.0 update is the most excited I’ve been about Super Smash Bros. Ultimate since launch.
