Nintendo’s brawler behemoth, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, got its 2.0.0 patch today and it includes the Piranha Plant DLC. To get it for free you have to register your game before 09:59 SAST on 1 February. Everyone loves a free thing, so get on that. You can always buy it later if you miss out. Yay?
Besides the Piranha Plant, the patch contains a number of fixes and adjustments:
Offline
- You can now play Spirit Board with up to four players.
- Select the spirit you want to challenge on the Spirit Board, and then go to Party → Fighter to select the number of people who will play. When playing with multiple people, you will lose the battle if any player is KO’d.

- Partner Pikachu
- Partner Eevee
- Dice Block
- River Survival
- Golden Dash Mushroom
Online
