New Smash Bros. Ultimate Freebie Available Now For Nintendo Switch Online Members

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate’s latest DLC fighter, Terry Bogard from Fatal Fury, has finally arrived alongside the game’s 6.0 update, but that isn’t the only new content for the title this week. Nintendo is also offering another free Spirit Board Challenge Pack for Switch Online subscribers.

The Spirit Board Challenge Pack 3 is available now. Whereas previous packs contained items related exclusively to the game’s Spirit Board mode, this one comes with 5,000 Gold and three Classic Tickets, which will let you continue a Classic Mode run if you’re defeated without dropping its intensity.

You can grab the free pack by going into the Switch Eshop and selecting the Nintendo Switch Online option from the left sidebar–the pack will be listed under exclusive offers. Alternatively, you can select the Eshop icon from Super Smash Bros. Ultimate’s main menu and see the pack listed with the game’s other DLC.

As was the case with the previous two Spirit Board Challenge Packs, you can only claim this freebie if you have an active paid NSO subscription; you can’t grab it during a free trial to the service. Subscriptions are available for US $4 / £3.49 / AU $6 for one month, US $8 / £7 / AU $12 for three months, and US $20 / £18 / AU $30 for one year. Nintendo also offers an annual Family Membership that costs US $35 / £31.49 / AU $55 and covers up to eight Nintendo Accounts across multiple systems.

Terry Bogard, meanwhile, is the fourth DLC fighter to arrive as part of Smash Ultimate’s $25 Fighters Pass. One more as-yet-unrevealed DLC fighter is still on the way by February, but that isn’t the end of the game’s DLC; earlier this year, Nintendo confirmed it is working on even more DLC fighters for Smash, but it hasn’t shared any more details beyond that.
