The most menacing Pokémon of all is back. Mewtwo won’t be available for ‘free’ for everyone, however — only for players that purchase both the 3DS and Wii versions of Smash. And he won’t be available right away, either.
Mewtwo will be a DLC character players can download in Q2 2015. Apparently they’re not done building him yet!
Complete speculation, but I’m guessing he won’t be the only downloadable character we’ll see in the future. And I gotta give props to Nintendo for giving people incentive to purchase both versions of the game too. Clever, clever.

Nice 🙂 i would have to see his play style in new game before i commit. I have fallen in loooooove with Greninja though (honestly thought he was dumb idea when announced) he’s my main now.
If you have to buy both versions, it’s not really free for “everyone”.
Yeah, that’s a pretty hefty price tag.
Never played him much. But its good they brought him back.
I hope his Final Smash is a Mega Evolution.
Boo.
Hopefully they make him better then he was in Melee.
Ill pray for ice climbers DLC.
BAYONETTA DLC CHARACTER! PLS NINTENDO DO IT!
First justice is coming back to guilty gear xrd, now mewtwo is coming back for smash bros, the bleepometer for feared genetic monsters are going through the roof right now, this coming on the same day as ridley returns as a very menacing stage hazard like he was in d.o.a dimensions, right down to the look. The fans of mewtwo are happy right now as it scares the bleep of the n00bs who haven’t encountered its wrath before.
Really disappointed by this 🙁 I have a US 3DS so even if I do get the 3DS version too I’m not able to claim it on club nintendo 🙁
Hmm, so players who waited for the “definitive” Wii U edition are punished for not buying a game twice. I have a hard time justifying re buying HD versions of a game so I certainly can’t justify this.
Edit: as Grandmaster B-funk mentioned below he may become paid for DLC which is much better than just not getting access to it at all. I’ll quit my whinging.
To everyone complaining that you need both versions nintendo of europe have said that you get mewtwo for free if you have both, so it most likely means that mewtwo will be paid dlc, not exclusive to whoever bought both versions.
thanks for the info, that seems fair.
Yep, he’ll definitely be paid DLC. They’d be crazy not to do it.
I wish they would fix the terrible network issues before moving onto extra characters though.
