Would you guys like to see new Assist Trophies added as DLC. Say, would you have wanted a Persona AT to join Joker? Let's discuss.

I for one am hoping that Futaba/Oracle can be the persona 5 Assist Trophy. She basically bestows a variety of buffs to the summoner.

I'm surprised we did not get a persona AT- maybe it was Jack Frost and it will be revealed later for some reason.

I'd love to see DLC of just about every form. Items arent somehow more sacred than modes, spirits, music, and stages.

I’d absolutely be cool with assist trophies coming alongside the challenger packs, but not sold separately.

Would take them any day over Mii costumes, because it means the character is actually taking part rather than an imposter wearing their skin.

Assist Trophies aren't even in the game for myself and an enormous body of other players, so I would prefer they not spend development time on something many will never see.

At the very least, I myself would not buy any DLC assist trophies.

What if they were simply part of the package of a Challenger Pass. Say challenger pack 2 is Master Chief. The Arbiter is added as an AT as part of the Smash Bros x Halo crossover.

I still would never see them, and they would have no bearing on my purchasing of said DLC.

Additional Assist Trophies could be free... they would not need to be paid.
Also, I dont think some players not using ATs matters much. That doesnt excuse them from being a part of the game.
I won't be buying Mii Costumes- but they add content and franchise representation for other players.
Unnecessary selfishness.
