Introducing Sora on Tuesday, Smash Bros. game director Masahiro Sakurai recalled this community poll, which ran from April to October of 2015.
The revelation that Sora, from Square Enix’s Kingdom Hearts series, is the 82nd and final Super Smash Bros. Ultimate fighter brings a bittersweet closure to a Smash community event from more than six years ago.
Fans voted in a completely open-ended ballot for the video game character — regardless of franchise — they wanted to see most in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and 3DS.
