RUMOUR: New Smash Bros images have started to circulate today highlighting the inclusion of Palutena as a possible playable or assist character.
Unconfirmed images, taken off a Nintendo 3DS XL screen, have started to do the rounds, with Mario and Palutena on what appears to be a new stage. Fans have dug up as much as possible on the leak, noting how both the Mario and Palutena models aren't from previous screens, nor from Kid Icarus: Uprising.
It could be fake image that's gone a little too far in an attempt to be authentic, or a rogue developer leaking some new information ahead of time.
