Update 10.1.0 for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate has been released, and here’s the full list of patch notes. Sephiroth is officially out for everyone, although most people probably already have the character unlocked after beating the Sephiroth Challenge. Final Fantasy VII spirits and Mii costumes are out now, too, and there are several fighter adjustments and balance changes for multiple characters. A few of Fox’s aerial attacks have been tweaked, and there are additional changes to Zelda, Pichu, Young Link, and more. This update should automatically download to your Nintendo Switch console the next time you start the game, but you can manually start the download by choosing “Check for Update” on the home menu if the download won’t start.
