Summary
Foras vast as the Super Smash Bros. roster has historically been, it’s pretty lacking in theLegend of Zeldadepartment. Of course, we havethe current Link, plus a few iterations (Toon, Young), along with Ganondorf and Zelda herself (along with Sheik), but it certainly isn’t enoughcompared to say Fire Emblem.
Few things would be cooler than a Smash Bros. game with the likes of Tingle, Toon Zelda (especially with Echoes of Wisdom out), Midna and, of course, Skull Kid.While we know that Super Smash Bros. Ultimate isn’t getting any future DLC, andwe don’t know if there will be a successor on the next Switch, a content creator has taken it upon themselves to imagine what Skull Kid in a Smash Bros. would look like.
The end result is super awesome, andparticularly appropriate as Halloween draws near.
Skull Kid Has Clocked In
In a new near-five-minute-long YouTube video, creator King Bob has put together a reveal trailer for Skull Kid. The creator has published a plethora of Smash Bros. concept videos, including videos dedicated tothe movie version of Mario,Waluigi, as well asToad.
Seriously, if you love Smash Bros. and creative concepts,then give their videos a whirl.
Not only does the trailer serve as a sweet introduction to Skull Kid, but it also gives a glimpse at what some possible moves could look like. It’s not much, but it is enough to give the impression that Skull Kid will be a pesky foe, especially with that signature laugh.
Also, we get a look at Bowser being nice for once in his life. The fearsome foe is seen consoling Isabel, as the even more fearsome Skull Kid makes his way into the world of Smash. There’s also a major twist at the end that we won’t spoil, but is worth sticking around for. All of this is to say that fan creations can be hit or miss, but this is a certified banger in our book.
