Corrin from Fire Emblem Fates revealed for Super Smash Bros for Wii U/3DS

During final Super Smash Bros. focused Direct, Nintendo revealed that Corrin, the main character from Fire Emblem Fates, will be headed to Super Smash Bros. for the Wii U/3DS in February 2016.  Corrin will be priced at $4.99 per platform (Wii U and 3DS), but you can purchase him as a bundle on both platforms for $5.99.

Players can choose to play Corrin as either Male or female. Both versions preform the exact same way, wielding the final form of Yato, the Omega Yato sword. While the character wields the sword, it's not Corrin's primary way of fighting.

Corrin is infused with the blood of a dragon, which allows him to transform entirely into a dragon, while some of his moves only transform parts of his body. His side smash is particularly powerful move that is its strongest at the tip, so Nintendo suggests watching your distance when using this.

The Standard Special, for Corrin is called Dragon Fang Shot and it paralyzes opponents with his transformed hand. A secondary attack for this move will have the transformed hand biting nearby opponents.

Corrin's Side Special, Dragon Lunge, will hold you in place if stuck the tip of the attack is stuck into the ground or will pin your opponent and use an extra attack on them.

The up attack, Dragon Ascent, will has Corrin flying up at a wide angle attacking multiple opponents at once. The down attack, Counter Surge, turns Corrin into a dragon and smashes down opponents.

The final smash Torrential Roar calls a torrent of water that finishes all fighters off at once.

Purchasing Corrin on the Wii U gives you two additional songs, the theme song from Fire Emblem Fates and an additional remixed version, 3DS owners of Corrin will get Ryoma and Xander.
