Super Smash Bros 4 Characters: Mega Charizard X Appears in New Pictures

By Vincent Funaro, Christian Post Reporter Tuesday, May 13, 2014

Mega Charizard X made an appearance in today's Super Smash Bros 4 "pic of the day."

"And here's Mega Charizard X," wrote Masahiro Sakurai. "This will appear as Charizard's Final Smash." See it here.

Another picture that displays the creature's special attack also was released by Sakurai.

"Here's Charizard's new special attack, Flare Blitz," he said. "It's a very powerful attack-however, you'll take recoil damage if you make contact. Pretty true to the original game huh? Flare Blitz is Charizard's side special move and Rock Smash is the down special move."

The new Super Smash Bros. game will be available for the Wii U and 3DS.

Nintendo confirmed to IGN last month that the 3DS version of Super Smash Bros will launch sometime in the summer this year. Wii U fans will have to wait until the winter to get their hands on this epic fighting title.

The game's director Masahiro Sakurai also discussed how multiplayer will work in the game. He stated that players can play online with friends and can also engage in a handful of different multiplayer modes. There will be two distinct forms for multiplayer including "For Fun" and "For Glory."

For Fun only records players wins, and pits opponents against each other in random stages that include all items. For Glory levels the playing field by removing items and setting every match on a Final Destination version of certain levels. Wins and Losses will be tracked in For Glory.

Players can customize the rules for regular multiplayer and online play.

Those who can't get enough of Super Smash Bros can log on to the MiiVerse and check out Masahiro Sakurai's page where he is constantly posting up screenshots of the upcoming game.
