Vergeben leaks: Difference between revisions

On December 7th, Vergeben [https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/234547-super-smash-bros-ultimate/78233689?jumpto=52#52 stated] that he would try to check if the final Fighters Pass character is owned by HAL Laboratory, Game Freak, Intelligent Systems, SNK, or Atlus. [https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/234547-super-smash-bros-ultimate/78235954 A different post] he made later on the same day clarified that the list of companies he had listed the day before was incorrect, and it was only characters he had listed beside the companies' names that were disconfirmed. Characters removed from the running for Fighters Pass spot 5 by this were Arle Nadja from ''Puyo Puyo'', Sakura from ''Sakura Wars'', Crash Bandicoot from his self-titled series, Tracer from ''Overwatch'', and Reimu Hakurei from ''Touhou''. Kat from ''Gravity Rush'' was also disconfirmed as an aside, leaving the possibility for the remaining companies open. The second list of the post did not mention the disconfirmation of an Assist Trophy or Spirit being promoted like the first list did, though it is unknown if this is significant or an error. On December 8th, he made another [https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/234547-super-smash-bros-ultimate/78235954/931304870 post] saying that the character is not Sora, Sol Badguy, Ragna, Billy and Jimmy Lee from Double Dragon, Dante, Phoenix Wright, Amaterasu, Monster Hunter, Sam Porter Bridges, Geralt of Rivia, Monokuma, or Kratos. Interestingly, Vergeben mentioned in the same post that when asking about {{s|wikipedia|KOS-MOS}} from ''{{s|wikipedia|Xenosaga}}'' in response to a rumor from 4chan that she would be announced as the 5th Fighters Pass character during {{S|wikipedia|The Game Awards 2019}}, his informant responded with a "not sure" about her. However, the informant had debunked a Bandai Namco rep beforehand, which could mean that their answer was a result of them thinking KOS-MOS was a Monolith Soft character and not one owned by Bandai Namco. While the informant has yet to confirm or deny if KOS-MOS is the 5th Fighters Pass character, The Game Awards 2019 aired without any new announcements regarding ''Smash''.
