Samus’ long time foe Ridley has been confirmed as a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, and Nintendo has provided a trailer teasing what the Space Pirate commander will bring to the battle.
In a new trailer shown during Nintendo’s E3 press conference, Ridley is shown as a fast moving heavy able to go toe-to-toe with the series’ mainstays.
