Oh yes! Banjo and Kazooie have finally been given a release date for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, and that magical day is today!
The news was revealed in today's Nintendo Direct, which also confirmed that a deeper dive will be given to the character immediately after the show. We'll make sure to update this article when that video drops, so make sure to check back with us very shortly.
Update: As promised, here's that all-important video giving us a proper look at Banjo and Kazooie in the game. There's a whole lot to see here, so strap yourselves in!
In the same Nintendo Direct, it was also revealed that SNK's Terry Bogard will join the game as the fourth DLC character, and that more fighters than the scheduled five will be making their way to the game. And if that's not good enough, even Home Run Contest has made a return. Good grief!
Excited to give Banjo and Kazooie a spin? Let us know in the comments.

Woooo, can't wait! Can't believe we're getting even more fighters.
I kinda hoped we would but I didn't want to get my hopes up
Awesome, I’m going to put FE Three Houses on break for a bit to try out Banjo. And glad to see a SNK rep, Terry Bogard.
They guaranteed a second season pass essentially. Everyone on here complains when other devs do it, will they complain now that Nintendo are doing it too?
RIP Nintendo servers
Never expected we were getting more fighters. Either Sakurai's a masochist, or he just really loves doing what he does (even if it costs his physical health.)
Yes!! This is awesome!!!
I'm excited to play as Banjo - I even finished Banjo-Kazooie before they came to Smash Ultimate! Buuuuuuuuuuuut as of this post the update doesn't seem to be available. Guess I'll have to have my Switch in sleep mode.
I’ll pass on the season pass but I’ll buy the bear and bird on their own. Please rerelease the 2 original Banjo Kazooie games also please.
@Emob When has anyone ever complained about getting an extra season of characters in a fighting game? I've literally never seen this happen, and if people did complain about it, they'd be morons. Making and balancing new fighters in a game is a massive undertaking and only charging around $6 for them is amazing. Why would anyone complain about a cheap, massive and completely optional update to a game?
@DEADCELL I'm not sure exactly who it was, but I've seen people on here complain about DBFZ getting a second season pass. Asking things like, "since when did fighting games become the most expensive?", or "remember when you got new characters by playing the game?" People just complain about it when, like you said, it's completely optional.
