Super Smash Bros. Ultimate has surprisingly awakened from dormancy on its fifth anniversary. Why? To bring us a new spirit event alongside new spirits!
『大乱闘スマッシュブラザーズ SPECIAL』は、本日で発売5周年を迎えました! 明日から5日間、ゲーム内イベント「ありがとう!! スマブラSP発売5周年」を開催します。期間中はバトル後にもらえる経験値とSPが5倍になるほか、「おやつL」を5個追加で入手できます。#スマブラSP pic.twitter.com/vZs8GvMlwO

For starters, this new spirit event will last for five days. The event lets players earn five times the spirit points and experience points they normally would. And, players can also obtain five Snack (L)s from the event. Secondly, there’s also four new waves of spirits coming in 2024. These new spirits will be coming alongside their own amiibo-focused spirit events.
そして、2024年1月からは、新規スピリッツも登場するイベント(計4回)や育てたamiiboと挑むタッグトーナメントも開催予定ですので、どうぞお楽しみに!

Author’s Note: That’s pretty unexpected, gotta say. And especially those new spirits coming in 2024, really didn’t have those on the cards at all. Anyway, I don’t expect any additional balance changes or bugfixes in an upcoming patch. I imagine it's really just these new spirits that are coming, but hey that's pretty cool regardless. What do you think? Please let us know in the comments below!
