Near the end of last year, Nintendo partnered once again with studio PlatinumGames on another action game, Astral Chain. The game had a lot of similarities to Platinum’s previous works but also had several adjustments that were welcome critically. The game sold better than expected according to its Director, making it most likely one of the developer’s best selling titles. Now it’s getting a special spot on the Nintendo crossover event, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.
As announced via the official Twitter, later this week a Spirit Board event will feature spirits from the action game, including the likes of Kyle and Lappy and the various villains you have to slash your way through. The event will last for five days, so get those spirits while you can.
Astral Chain and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate are both available now exclusively on Nintendo Switch. The Spirit Board event between the two will start on January 17th. Keep an eye out for the latter too as the next DLC character will be revealed the day before on the 16th.
Starting on 1/17 for 5 days, the #SmashBrosUltimate spirit event "Chain the Future to Spirits!" will be held. Neuron's newest recruits, as well as Kyle and Lappy will invade the Spirit Board! Don't miss out! pic.twitter.com/mXDaRmmPZ4
