"Super Smash Bros." Screens Show Palutena's Wide-Ranging Attacks

Super Smash Bros. director Masahiro Sakurai has turned his attention to newcomer Palutena in his latest Miiverse post. The Kid Icarus character has quite the far-ranging Smash Attack, as evidenced in a screen that shows it reaching all the way to the top.


 



 


Sakurai's commentary:


Pic of the day. I talked about an attack with a far reach in yesterday's post, but it didn't compare to Palutena's up smash attack! No joke, it reaches really far. It reached so far in this shot that even the rocketbarrels got blown up.


 


He followed that up in the comments with a look at Palutena's Heavenly Light power.


 



 


That said, if we're talking just about range, even that can't beat Palutena's power, Heavenly Light. It has quite a damage field. However, this is a no-flinch attack, which means the opponents won't react to the damage!


 


Super Smash Bros. hits Nintendo 3DS this summer, followed by a winter release on Wii U.
