Nintendo announced the first DLC character that will be coming to Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.

It will be none other than Joker from Persona 5. Joker will be part of Challenger Pack 1. Nintendo of America tweeted the news, so you can see their tweet down below.

Rumors are of course running wild of a possible Persona 5 coming to Nintendo Switch now.

But what are your thoughts in Joker joining the fight?
