A new fighter for the Gamecube platform fighter is in the cards

Super Smash Bros. Melee Mod Inserts A 2024 Gaming Darling

Mooshies released a brief gameplay trailer showing Jimbo in action, along with the wild and wacky way he uses the recognizable jokers and card packs from Balatro in matches against Falco, Marth, and more. This was originally released as a paid mod, but Melee players interested in trying Jimbo out can find the mod on Mooshies's Patreon page.

The Super Smash Bros. community has been bereft of new content across the entire series since Super Smash Bros. Ultimate's final update in 2021, which saw Sora from Kingdom Hearts join the roster as the final downloadable fighter in SSBU's Fighter Pack 2. Other downloadable fighters added to Smash Bros. Ultimate as DLC include Sephiroth from Final Fantasy VII, Steve and Alex from Minecraft, and Kazuya from Tekken.

Though Super Smash Bros. may be dormant, its creator, Masahiro Sakurai, has been keeping busy. His next project, Kirby Air Riders, launches November 20 on Nintendo Switch 2, and it was the focus of a 45-minute Nintendo Direct earlier this month.
