New Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Update Adds Small Battlefield Stage
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate started with a ton of characters, stages, and modes, and those numbers have only grown. The two Fighters Passes have added several new characters and stages along, but Nintendo has announced that with the free, newly released version 8.1.0 update, players can add the new Small Battlefield stage to their catalog of arenas.
As the name indicates, Small Battlefield is a more compact version of the existing Battlefield and Big Battlefield. Known as one of the most neutral stages in the game, Battlefield is often picked in competitive settings. Small Battlefield looks to give players a new way to Smash in closer quarters.
In addition, this new update gives players the ability to choose any music track, stage-specific or otherwise, when playing on Battlefield, Big Battlefield, Small Battlefield, and Final Destination. The update also promises several adjustments to the online experience.
Version 8.1.0 is available now to all players.
