So the Smash Bros. Ultimate music files were supposedly dug into by Mexican players, who received the game early. <Content Redacted>:chrono:
More importantly, this list contains a few strange entries among the music files:
  • 11/23/2018 08:15 AM 690,536 mh01_mhxx_houkou.lopus
  • 11/23/2018 08:15 AM 1,232,664 mh02_mh4_eiyuunoakashi.lopus
Why do these stand out? Well, game series with stages but no fighters are listed alongside each other in the data, as BGM (background music). These songs, meanwhile, are categorized with music associated specifically with playable characters. If they were themes for a non-playable character like Rathalos they wouldn't be compressed where they are (and Rathalos' associated music is categorized in the correct place, so it's not like this is some weird error.)

This suggests a Monster Hunter character was either A) cut or B) still being worked on. Based on where exactly it is, this character would have began development around the same time they began creating Isabelle. There's also this file:
  • z90- Isabelle
  • z91- New Pokemon/Incineroar
  • z92- (blank)
  • z93- Inkling
  • z94- Ridley
  • Z95- K. Rool
  • Z96- Simon
Also associated with a character, organized among various victory themes. The name was specifically scrubbed out.

Cut character? Early DLC?

EDIT: In-game files should not be redacted, it's not a leak. Or should I remove the clickable K. Rool music in my signature too?
