This past week has been a very interesting one for Super Smash Bros. fans, specifically after a supposed leak crept up on NeoGAF, a leak that revealed the rest of the game’s roster.
The source of the leak is supposed to be from a video shown to the ESRB (for rating purposes), and it pointed out the remaining characters, which are yet to be announced:
Returning Characters
- Dr. Mario
- Falco
- Ganondorf
- Jigglypuff
- Mr. Game and Watch
- Ness
- R.O.B.
- Wario
New Additions
- Bowser Jr.
- Dark Pit
- Duck Hunt Dog
- Shulk
To corroborate the validity of the rumor, off screen images were posted as well, showing off menus and gameplay screenshots that can’t be found, meaning it’s an excellent hoax if it is a hoax.
Now, we’ve learned of actual gameplay videos that have surfaced showing off Bowser Jr., Shulk (from Xenoblade Chronicles), and Ganondorf. You can find those videos below:

Finally, this leak also cited that Lucas, Wolf, Chorus Men, Ice Climbers, and Solid Snake are all planned downloadable content, which are coming post launch.
Do you guys feel this is a real leak? If so, are you excited?
