Hey its a great model and honestly wouldn't mind seeing an offical shantae game using a model like that, or smash even

Leaks are floating around again, we're trying to make out details helping Shantae's chances... and she's still not mentioned one way or the other.

Feels like I just warped back a month in time...

Datamining I doubt will tell us anything about the DLC character. it didn't last time, it won't this time

Oh I know. Datamining at this point can only really tell us what might have gone down in the past of development, and hardly tells what they'll do for DLC, especially when you consider how Sakurai and his team tend to do things.

The main thing at the moment is apparently Monster Hunter music being listed in a "fighter" section despite having no fighter. But that could just as easily have been a simple typo by the devs as it could have been an actual cut. It's not like there is a shortage of reasons why Monster Hunter is likely outside of that...

According to the general thread, it was because the data is alphabetical ordered.

So it would go:
Mega Man
Metal Gear
Monster Hunter

I’m not sure if I should try and dig up the original post.

Well it did leak Roy and Ryu in 4 at least. However, that was only shortly before their release, and because they tried to have them available the day of their announcement. Chances are we won't see a stunt like that anytime soon...

Yeah don't think Sakurai are doing any surprise announcments like that. most likely we will heare about each character a few weeks or so before release, unless its some special thing, like at the game awards that show us the model for the first dlc or something

So I heard a few of the new music tracks being leaked... and my lord they are great. I did look and no shantae music though.

Also, i'll put it in spoiler

Some people are seeing the Ender from Minecraft is a boss. Maybe thats the minecraft content Verge was saying?

Cool to see that people love Link. He'll always be my favorite Ninty character.

No Shantae is a shame though.

Someone told me some rather interesting things on Discord. Apparently there is a Shantae online avatar available.

Now is our chance to flood the online playerbase with cute genie avatars!

Not sure if this has been mentioned yet but another bit of Shantae content has been found in Ultimate:

Someone is going through the spirits datamine and Risky Boots is confirmed to be a spirit

Ok
I found the picture for it btw
Hmmm why are those 5 gray?
Click to expand...
Looks like each series has a defined background color (Splatoon, Castlevania and Smash in general I guess), with the rest being "others" and thus having a gray background.

So cool to see Shantae as an online icon!! I mean, it's like the smallest of things, but seeing her there in the midst of other notable characters is so heartwarming. Will definitely set her as my icon.

Still no Rotty avatar... but Shantae's good enough, I guess.

If this World of Darkness is literally a dark version of the light map, imagine if the Risky Boots spirit was found in the same place as Shantae was in the light.

EarlTamm EarlTamm We are now officially in the same position the Rayman series was in 4 with having two "trophies" of the most prominent characters in their given series.

That's the weirdest damn thing to negotiate for. Not even a costume?

I mean, Dr. Kawashima is the weak link here, he's a floating head.

I find this inherently funny, since WayForward originally wanted Risky to be a ghost pirate.

So has there been a full boss list leaked? I keep hearing different things, and I don't mind hearing about who is a boss, I just want to wait and see them in game.

Specifically, have we heard of any shantae boss? Or Medusa as a boss?

And Minecraft as a boss... is this confirmed? I can see it, and explains Vergebens Minecraft content

Don’t worry he doesn’t have a world like shantae so our dream lives on
