(→‎Rumors about Super Smash Bros. Ultimate: Adeleine Leak has gained significant traction due to the specifics of the Hero claim)
Line 485: Line 485:


At The Game Awards 2018, it was revealed that {{SSBU|Joker}} would appear as the first Fighters Pass character, who would soon be followed during the Nintendo Direct E3 2019 event by a Square Enix rep {{SSBU|Hero}} and Microsoft rep {{SSBU|Banjo & Kazooie}}. As the leaker only definitively stated the third-party companies being represented with the characters themselves being worded as seeming speculation, it's currently unknown whether or not this leak has actual inside info or simply had several lucky guesses. Notably, Vergeben, another leaker who also predicted the inclusion of Banjo & Kazooie and the Hero among other content from the base game, has indicated that Square Enix sent out multiple names for their DLC fighter during development in order to prevent leaks, which may explain this leaker's guesses.

===Adeleine Leak===
On December 9th, 2019, an anonymous user (using an image of Adeleine from the ''Kirby'' series) posted on [https://boards.fireden.net/v/thread/442253084/#442254868 4chan] the alleged roster of the DLC Fighters Pass.
The user claimed the roster would consist of:
* Dragon Quest 3, 4, 8, or 11 Hero with alternate skins based on the rest of the series.
* Banjo & Kazooie
* Doomguy/Doom Slayer using the ''Doom 2016'' design, however altered with elements of the ''Doom Eternal'' design including exposed biceps and an arm blade.
* Monster Hunter with Male and Female alternate skins each wearing a different armour set.
This leak is notable in that it not only correctly claimed both {{SSBU|Hero}} and {{SSBU|Banjo & Kazooie}} as playable fighters, but also correctly claimed the character title {{SSBU|Hero}}, with the exact alternate skins.

While it only states that the Hero is coming out in the summer, the poster also says that it will be taken down on August 4th, leading many to believe that the Hero would be launch on August 4th.
