Super Smash Bros. Ultimate's latest update, 7.0, is live now, and Byleth is now available for any player with the Fighter's Pass (or they can be bought separately). That's not the only change that has been introduced, though, with patch notes showing tweaks being made across the board to better balance Nintendo's flagship fighter.
Both Samus and Dark Samus have received a buff, and many characters now have larger shields. Shiek, Zelda, and Young Link are all now more useful, and across the board nerfs are pretty rare--perhaps the most substantial is that Joker can now summon Arsene for less time if you're being damaged in battles with two or fewer opponents.
Below is the full list of character changes made in patch 7.0. The update must be applied to continue playing the game online.
