New Echo Fighters
How do I unlock characters?
There are a few different ways: World of Light, Classic Mode, regular gameplay, or the unlock trick. For details, head on over to our Unlock Guide.
Are Echo fighters new characters or just skins?
They’re more than new skins but not quite new characters. They’re similar to their base fighter but with a few small difference.
You can actually choose whether or not you want the game to display them in their own card slot or under the main character’s tile.
