Nintendo has finally made a move and announced that the new Super Smash Bros Ultimate fighter from ARMS will be revealed next week. In a Twitter post, Nintendo announced the date and time of the stream and also clarified that there will be no further new fighter reveals other than a fighter from ARMS in the livestream. After almost a year without a proper direct, Nintendo fans have been suffering from a drought of information about the new fighter, but it seems that this will put an end to that. The tweet is as follows:

As we all know, the new fighter comes from ARMS. Another fighting game developed and published by Nintendo. It had a good launch, but not soon after, the player base dwindled, and it faded into the shadows. Hopefully, the addition of this character to Smash rekindles the interest towards ARMS and makes it an active game once more. Below is the link to the stream:
