Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Official Sora Reveal Trailer + Gameplay 

It would be awesome if Lance Bass came back and said that!

Sephiroth is mad that Sora beat him up back at kingdom hearts 1 and 2 Cloud is happy to see his old friend again

Yooooo🤣🤣🤣🤣

@@neilisawesome2333 strictly speaking, Sephiroth seemed to admire Sora's potential skill as a swordsman. That said, I don't know about KH1, but in KH2, they made it pretty clear that Sora didn't beat Sephiroth. After you "beat" him, Sephiroth doesn't seem winded at all while Sora is about ready to pass out, and Sephy more or less says "You're not bad...for a child. Anyway, that was a good warmup to pass the time, but I'm bored now. Go get Cloud for me, would ya, kid?" KH1 they didn't really do anything with Sephy as "story" and he was more or less just an optional boss, but KH2 gave him that little bit of story that seemed to imply he was holding back and just stopped the fight when he was ready to play with Cloud instead. That and that he was sort of linked to/born from/inside/merged with Cloud somehow...

Happy happy joy joy!

That’s a cute touch

That's astounding.

Too bad they couldn't get the English voice actor to do his lines for the trailer. It's all re-used from the games.

@@Daniel328DT I'm just glad he's not mute like in world of final fantasy.

That’s almost the same thing that pit said in the kid icarus uprising reveal trailer

Nice 🙂👍

Mario: "Where did you learn to fly like that?" Sora: "A kid in green clothes" (Everyone looking at Link) Link: "Heaauuh?"

Love this comment this comment needs a medal 🏅

That's pure gold right there

Luigi:" *phew*"

There would be boos and cheering

The store would collapse

It was, but it wasn't as big as previous reveals

Why did this stupid virus rob us of not only the Steve reveal, but now SORA? Yet again the announcements were both so hype that the store would probably explode

Thank America funding China

Mario, a Nintendo exclusive game character, shaking hands with Sora, a freaking Disney exclusive protagonist in a Square Enix + Disney collaboration game series. What a time to be alive, really.

@@pikosapikos13 is Sora actually Disney's Character? I thought it was Tetsuya Nomura's Character which makes it Square Enix's Character

So did Leon and Jack Sparrow...anyone can briefly hold one.

@@innoillust No, Sora and most of the original characters born from KH are all Disney property

This is nothing special. Kingdom Hearts itself put Donald, Goofy, Cloud, and Sephiroth next to each other, which I would argue is a much weirder cross over. And Smash Bros. is full of much weirder cross overs. Even Mario and Sonic is much weirder, considering that those two used to be rivalling products from competing corporations. So no, the "what a time to be alive" has passed decades ago.

Well that's how sora is he liked to make friends

Quite the opposite actually; _he saves all of their lives!_

a shame, mario needs to be bodied more often

@@pepethemax4th124 calm down I was just guessing that if sora was gonna be in smash, but if they put him the dlc spirits will be kingdom heart Mickey mouse marvel and Star Wars because they both Disney plus

We all know nintendo likes money so expect that when we get a new nintendo console or if the switch goes for another 5 hear we will get another smash game.

@@SkullZThe_Skeleton I said for now. I’d be happy if ultimate was the last game, but it’s probably not going to be.

If you’re gonna quote Maximillian Dood at least put his name at the end….

@@FrostedJakess I didn’t quote anyone. I never even saw his reaction to the reveal. The fact that two people might share the same opinion on a character is pretty likely.

Sora is a pretty cool guy and all, but until he kills aliens and doesn't afraid of anything, he ain't quite living up.

The western animation icon, and now the world wide gaming icon.

I wonder what Disney's thinking right now

Always thought Mario was similar

@@WeaponXSigma that’s why Sora came

Sephiroth: Fuck.

Bear the torche against the cold of the night...

Sounds strange, but this trailer made me overcome a huge sadness on my life and for stuff that I had been through

Sora is Jesus in disguise?

Cloud is the correct spelling

Coud

Was that The Office reference there? XD

Sooooo..... Heartless Angel....

Sephiroth: "ARE YOU GONNA DO THAT ARS ARKENUM THING??" Cloud: "Yes! Yes! Yes! Oh my god..."

Bro 🥺 so poetic

Nice

I thought he initially sealed worlds from contact with each other cause Darkness?

Also ironic how the admittedly cheesy but still true plot to Kingdom hearts is keeping your friends with you and Disney wouldn't let Donald and Goofy's art on the wall kind of slapping the point of the games in the face

As key bearer one must not meddle in the affairs of other worlds

He did make an alternate universe where worlds of fiction are reality

Please don't jinx it , the plot is already complicated as it is lol

@@Faceless_time_traveler for real for real

@@Faceless_time_traveler It actually wouldn't be *that* over the top. As another comment already pointed out, Cloud and Sephiroth both disappear in KH2 and are never seen again in that series to this day, but they both wound up in Smash in spite of almost literally countless other FF characters that could've been picked. Sora, the way I understand it, just sorta vanishes at the end of RE:Mind, and now here he is. Going from one legendary crossover franchise to appearing in another, I imagine this could fit pretty comfortably in KH canon without very much convolution at all. It would be entirely meta and not actually mean anything (not unlike KH3 somehow being canon in the Toy Story universe), but still

NO DON'T MANIFEST IT

Nomura probably will try and make it canon

If it isn't officially canon then just make it your headcanon.

Its canon in kingdom hearts 4

Since this is nearly a 1:1 to the prophecy of smash's theme, I wouldn't be surprised if they found a way to integrate it to KH canon "On that day when the sky fell away, Our world came to an end. In our eyes did a fading sun rise in the dark glimmering shadows. Silence grows in the spaces between, Stretching out beyond time." the smash logo fading and every characters turning back into amibos. "Rising up as a chorus of souls find a voice flickering through the void. These little sparks cling on to life, Everyone caught in the struggle." All the amibos are still turned towards where the smash logo was, focusing their last spark of light on that spot "And then the storms of change, they fan the flames scattering ashes to the wind. Every soul contains a whisper of light, Gleaming faintly as it dwindles from sight. No escape, no greater fate to be made, In the end the chains of time will not break. Colours weave into a spire of flame, Distant sparks call to a past still unnamed, Bear this torch against the cold of the night," the flame reingnites and revives Mario, who walks to the flame and grabs it to push the cold night of nothingness away "Search your soul and reawaken the undying light. As fate spins a thread without end, New life draws its first breath. Blossoming in a soil reclaimed from the past, Where destiny holds fast. Here where we stand hand clenched in hand, Everyone caught in the struggle, This is the day we finally find our way stepping into our tomorrow." Mario realizes what he had to do, he throws the flame turning to a key blade and opening the door for sora, a new life, to enter and as the champion of light in his world, shines new life onto everyone else, reviving the smash cast. He shakes hand with Mario as the world is reborn but not saved yet, Sephiroth is still around, but a new hope has arisen. "Light will guide you on your way to the ultimate fight." Sora both here and in kingdom hearts is seen as the light that chases the dark and fair enough, he takes the lead against Sephiroth.

It is canon for me

Ever since I saw that "Mushroom Kingdom Hearts" April Fools joke as a kid, I've dreamed of a Mario/Nintendo KH game. I never dreamed I would get a chance to see anything like that during my life, yet here we are. I love KH to death, and Smash has been in my life just as long. I love video games sooo much, thanks again to Sakurai and everyone involved in Ultimate.

I couldn't have said it better myself

Fun fact Jack sparrow and mario have wielded the keyblade

@@hansraute3587 The question is who does Sora pass the power on to?

@@hansraute3587 Jack Sparrow still wouldn't have been worthy, as the Keyblade went back to Sora's hand afterward. The Succession Ceremony states that if a Keyblade stays in someone's hands after a wielder gives it to them, then they can be considered worthy. Mario is still up in the air, as he didn't hold it long enough to see if it would have returned to Sora's hand or not. Very likely tho, imho...

This is exactly why this announcement is so emotional for me. A very close friend died this year, and the first thing we ever bonded over was the KH3 trailer. I wish he could be here to see it, but I’ll hope he can from wherever he is.

@@montanarose4622 :(

Thinking of you, wherever you are

I was one of those people kingdom hearts was my childhood, I’m glad he is probably the final character to be added to this wonderful series

Same sky one destiny

This is an amazing theory.

"Cloud left to fight an important battle"

I was wondering why Seph was a no show in KH3 (so far, since post release updates are a luxury that the older games mostly lacked), thinking it would have been a perfect promotion for the new remake all the while, but between this and the fact the remake is split into multiple parts, I think I’m beginning to understand now. Also, I suppose this opens the KH series to _even MORE_ surprise crossover bosses in the future.

Would've made more sense if he arrived in his KH2 or 3 gear

How many times this music has been used during dramatic moments, it's like a 20yr old emotional trigger for me 😭😱

You're not the only one feeling emotional. The nostalgia train ran me over and I loved it.

As a crash bandicoot fan who wanted him. I honestly could agree like crash would have to be announced before Sora . If crash was last he wouldn’t get that much hype

As a fan of waluigi I also agree

Yeah, sora is a good representation as a last character, and he's a popular #1 voted character so it makes sense. Honestly, I would've loved if Crash or Sptro was in the game, but they'd have to be before, cause sora is the best last character.

I was personally hoping for Doomslayer.

Basically the scenario this comment is trying to make is that around the time Hero got into smash, Cloud became friends (or something like that) with him and at one point, told him about Sora and the short but great time he had with him in KH1-KH2. Two years later (now) it's the first time in years he's seen Sora, and he's glad to see him again so he's smiling unlike he normally does. It's honestly something I could see happening if they gave the characters in these trailers more dialogue and interactions, instead of just having them be emtionless characters who just fight each other to show off the new character.

*proceeds to combo his ass into next millennium with Arial UpB, Downsmash, A,A,A, into Side-B* See Cloud, Fair and Square!

Can't pass this time.

How dair you make puns like that

The theory is that Sora is actually supposed to fit the lyrics of Smash's main theme, Lifelight. 0:13 "Colours weave into a spire of flame" Smash Ball being the spire, formed by the addition of different characters (colours), until the flame goes out (The end of Smash of DLC, makes them turn into trophies, as just another toy in one's life) 0:53 "Distant sparks call to a past still unnamed" (That one spark of fire calling out to Mario, the yet to be named true final character) 1:16 "Bear this torch against the cold of the night" (Mario's sword/beam-like fire looks like a torch that can bring life to the trophy-turned characters (also, keyblades are also known to be weapons only used by users of light)) 1:40 "Search your soul and reawaken the undying light" (Sora being the undying light, in which the characters stop being trophies from the "cold of the night", in which Sora lights them up one last time) This can relate to the Smash's very first lore in 64, them being toys. And Sora being a character who crossovers to many different Disney worlds now goes to Smash to light everyone up to reawaken our favourite characters as more than just toys, but moments of our childhood. Sora is canon. Edit: Oops forgot one more important thing. The orchestra version of Simple and Clean being played is originally called "Hikari" meaning light in Japanese. This is way too fitting.

Yeah, he brought Disney vibes with him and it's incredible to see a part of the Disney universe in the world of Smash. There is something very special in this trailer that makes it very different from the other ones. The magic of Disney combined with Nintendo's magic, it's powerful!

Kingdom hearts music itself I wouldn’t actually call Disney inspired. The original songs anyway.

Thats not disney inspired music my friend.

They both as the same aesthetic of appeal to kids and having that child like wonder that which BOTH nintendo and Disney excel at and the combination between the two are a match made in heaven!

True. That's something I liked from this reveal. In other Reveals, a character is hurt, such as Luigi losing his soul to Death or Kazuya dropping people off a cliff. This reveal however was all about Sora breathing life and light back into the Super Smashers, allowing them to continue the Ultimate Fight.

That and representing the end of new smash ultimate content which is why it ended how it started (inkling looking at the symbol burn out)

@@TheDapperDragon average smash fan learns that people have opinions (IMPOSSIBLE!) even then, im surprised someone’s saying this about (as sakurai confirms himself) the MOST REQUESTED CHARACTER on the smash ballot, like come on bro let people enjoy things

@@TheDapperDragon Yeah you're right, that's why he was the #1 requested character in the poll 6 years ago, because no one wanted him

@@TheDapperDragon what you've just said... is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever read. At no point, in your rambling, incoherent response, were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this comment section is now dumber for having read it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

@@TheDapperDragon Correction, You didn't want him. Me and plenty of others wanted him, some even since brawl, that's a fucking decade! But yeah "no one was going to be happy".
