With Kazuya being the fifth character to arrive, there is room for one more DLC fighter before the year's end. So far we have received: Min Min (ARMS), Steve and Alex (Minecraft), Sephiroth (FFVII), and Pyra and Mythra (Xenoblade Chronicles 2).
Known for his volcano, Kazuya when viral after a moment in the trailer where he held Kirby over a volcano became an instant meme classic. While he won't be available this month, we might see him make some appearances at events later this year as LANs slowly start to creep back in the United States.
