It looks like all of those leaks earlier this week were right! A new update is coming soon for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate v2.0.0 as confirmed by the in-game message from Nintendo themselves. Though the alert itself is pretty straight to the point and on a need-to-know basis, we do know that this upcoming patch will do a lot of good things for the fighter's balance.

Just like previous updates, replays will reset so if you've got any footage you want to keep hold of -- you're going to want to back that up now. Hopefully this is the update that adds Piranha Plant, which we pretty sure it is, but some of the matchmaking features could use some work as well.

Despite the few issues online play is having and the original hiccups at launch, hyper surrounding the latest fighter from Nintendo has been super high.

"Between a robust single-player component that Super Smash Bros. for Wii U sorely lacked and the ever-present competitive modes like VS and online play, there's a lot to unpack in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. More than 50 hours of gameplay have given some insight into the game's many modes, and it's evident that the hype around the fighting game was absolutely warranted," reads our full review.

"Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is still showing itself as a must-have for any Nintendo Switch owner. The stacked roster with a promise of more characters to come means there's something or someone for every player, and like other Smash Bros. games, you don't have to be a fighting pro to enjoy it. With a few tweaks from Nintendo via some post-release patches, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is poised to be the defining Smash Bros. experience."
