What can King. K. Rool do in Smash?

It's been almost a week since the most recent Nintendo Direct where we found out even more regarding Super Smash Bros. Ultimate (and witnessed the tragic death of Luigi), but we have more details on Smash's newest fighter, King. K. Rool. He will be joining the battle and we have a trailer which showcases what he can do.

In the trailer you can see the king of crocodiles use a long-distance Blunderbuss, a Stomach Attack counter move, and his Final Smash, Blast-O-Matic, an ever so slightly over the top laser cannon. He seems to be a pretty versatile fighter using both long range and close melee attacks.

During the Nintendo Direct other things were also announced, such as new characters, Simon Belmont and Echo Fighters, Dark Samus and Richter. Moreover, there will be a massive 130 stages in the game at launch. Masahiro Sakurai is too good to us.

I think it's fair to say that we're all pretty excited for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate and can't wait to get our hands on it when it's released later this year on December 7th on the Switch.
