The enigmatic rival of Kirby, Meta Knight, has come back to put up another fight in both the Nintendo 3DS and Wii U of Super Smash Bros.! Following the suspicious reveal of the Meta Knight mask for the Mii Fighters in Monday’s Picture of the Day, the veteran swordsman was officially confirmed by Sakurai on Miiverse:
“Looks like there was an impostor in the earlier posts, so I introduced him to my sword!” …I’ll leave it up to your imagination if he really said that or not. The veteran hero, Meta Knight, returns to battle!! We didn’t forget the Battleship Halberd either!!
Check out all the screens below!
Called it.

In image 6, I love how Yoshi dodged being hit by Meta Knight. Mario, not so much.
Pretty sure Yoshi got hit. No one dodges with shocked expressions (at least, not that I’ve seen).
lol their faces
I just noticed how the mach sword slices distort the very air Galaxia slices through. A neat graphical touch and upgrade from Brawl.
in the 8th pic, Kirby has some #palutenapower
Nice to know he retains Drill Rush 🙂
I LOVE THE NEW METALIC GLOVES HE HAS!!!!
Meta Knight, enters in the Battle!! By the way he looks fantastic in HD.
Please don’t be incredibly cheap this time, Meta Knight. 😛
yeah, wouldn’t want another unfair fighter
DID ANYONE NOTICE THAT HE HAS THE SAME FACE IN EVERY PICTURE!?!?!??!?!?!
well its not like we can see him grin or turn his see though part upwards
Well… It’s a mask so
You really like anime dont you?
Well that’s because he uses a mask… but what if
HOLY CRAPAMOLE!
He looks exact like his Brawl version lol now we need Wario and Ness
and jigglypuff
and Falco and Ice Climbers
and Mr. Game and Watch
Thank you for supporting this cause! 😉
Pokemon Trainer can go die in a pit for all I care xD
I guess only left Ganondorf
Hidden or cut. Ice Climbers are gonna return idk about Falco
They’ll both return, there’s 7 characters that I’m 100% sure they’ll return no matter what the other people say, that characters are Ice Climbers, Ganondorf, Jigglypuff, Falco, Mr. Game & Watch, Ness, Wario.
tbh I don’t care about her srry Jigglypuff fans
NO Actually if you see his gloves have a metal part now and they didn’t have it in brawl
He looks amazing, but I won’t get excited until I see how he fights.
Alright Meta Knight.
YAY!!!!!!!!! OMG I AM SO DAMN EXCITED!!!!!!
I love the Meta Knight’s design when he gets the Smash Ball/Final Smash.
HE’S SHINY!
Meta Knights looking good! Glad to see him. Makes me wonder why it wasn’t on Friday though.
Maybe we will get another “big” thing on Friday *cough*ganondorf*cough*
So now they just need to officially confirm Wario & Mr G&W, and all we need are Ness, Jigglypuff, Ganondorf, Falco and the Ice Climbers, in terms of veterans.
Meta Knight: Now, I will take you down, Palutena!
Kirby: Poyo!
Axew: WHAAAAAAA???
See Nintendo! Everyone gets happy when you stop teasing us and actually give us a character!
Okay! The 2nd character I was waiting for is now confirmed! Now…I just got to wait for Mr Game & Watch and Wario!
