You may be reminded of rumors late last year about the possible addition of Sora the main character of Kingdom Hearts to the popular Nintendo fighting video game Ultimate Smash Bros. that looked rather perishable thanks to some definite assets. As it turned out, that was taken from a mod by modder Mastaklo, and the mod itself is now available and available to anyone participating in the modder ‘s Patreon. If you just want to see the Sora mod in action, the modder has helpfully shared a small gameplay demo, which you can check out above, which shows what to expect.
Sora, if you don’t know somehow, has been a popular application for an extra fighter for years at this point. There was never any big sign that he would come to the title, of course, but an ongoing collaboration with Square Enix Ultimate Smash Bros. in the form of Cloud Strife fighters and Sephiroth DLC continuing to feed rumors that even more could be on the way.

As for the mod, the Sora model looks great in action and uses the Shulk movement, an existing one Ultimate Smash Bros. fighter. This is partly also how people eventually decided that last year’s Sora DLC rumors were a bunch of malarkey; Sora’s lively stance was particularly similar to Shulk’s because, as mentioned above, he was in fact from this mod.
Ultimate Smash Bros. currently available for Nintendo Switch. The latest and greatest DLC fighter for the title, Sephiroth, was released in late December. You can check out all of our previous covers of Ultimate Smash Bros. here.
What do you think of the mod for adding Sora to the video game? Are there any other Kingdom Hearts characters you’d like to see included in the popular fighting video game? Let us know in the comments, or we can reach out and hit me up directly on Twitter at @rollinbishop to talk about all gaming!
