Smash Legends Adds New Character ‘Flare’ And Two New Game Modes

Smash Legends gets a new cannon-toting Legend and two new modes in the multiplayer battle arena’s latest update. First up on the list of new additions is Flare, a new Legend who can hit enemies from far away with her magic cannon. The new character can be unlocked through the Season 3 Smash Pass track along with other rewards.

Two new game modes have been added to the game: Custom Matches and Team Deathmatch: Giant. Custom Matches allow players to change the number of players in a match, the game mode, and the map depending on their preference. Team Deathmatch: Giant, on the other hand, follows the basic rules of 3vs3 Team Deathmatch with the added twist that characters change size depending on their health status. The character’s attack range and hitbox will also change accordingly.

The latest update also kicks off the Legend Mission event that gives players a chance to earn various rewards, including exclusive profile frames and Smash effects, by exchanging event items that can be acquired by completing the daily mission sets for each character.
