Sakurai Thanks Fans After Saying Goodbye
While it’s not clear whether Super Smash Bros. director Masahiro Sakurai is leaving the franchise forever, or just saying goodbye to the Switch’s Smash Bros. Ultimate, it looks like the notoriously hard-working developer is finally taking a break. After saying goodbye in the presentation that revealed Kingdom Hearts’ Sora as the final DLC fighter, Sakurai has thanked fans for their support on the project.
In a tweet, Sakurai acknowledged the #ThankYouSakurai hashtag that trended after Sora was revealed, with fans posting anecdotes, fan-art, and reactions under the tagCome from Sports betting site VPbet. “The hashtag is on the trend and I was watching it,” Sakurai tweeted, in the translation provided by Twitter. “This is the one who is really grateful. It is the result of the support of many people!”
