Nintendo has released a brand new 'Fan-Favorites & Newest Releases' game compilation trailer that showcases what is to be expected to launch on Nintendo Switch this Summer.

The above video has been released onto the official Nintendo YouTube Channel and details what is in the pipeline to be launch on the Switch this Summer. While there is many great titles in the video, one in particular is the in the spotlight, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate's next DLC fighter.

Dragon Quest's 'Hero' was announced to be the next DLC fighter to be invited to join Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. While fans wait for an official announcement this above trailer has subtly suggested that 'Hero' will be arriving this Summer, as the video title boldly states "Summer" in the headline.

'Hero' could be coming this July, but since there hasn't been an official release date slapped on the new character I'd wait and see what Nintendo do before getting your hopes up. Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is exclusively available on the Nintendo Switch.
