According to the Japanese Twitter post, the spirit event will start on June 24, 2025 and will continue on for five days. Though the spirits that will appear during the event were not named in the post, the key artwork featured three familiar characters fromHyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity- Young Impa, Sooga, and Terrako. This has lead fans to believe that these three are the collectible spirits that will be the main feature of the event.
Right after the announcement, the official Twitter account shared two new posts highlighting the spirit cards of Terrako and Young Impa, confirming fan speculations. Each card provides the type, class, and skill of the spirit and also showcases which of theSuper Smash Bros. Ultimateplayable characterthey are partnered with. Young Impa has been paired with Sheik and Terrako has been matched up with ROB.
Sooga’s spirit card has yet to receive its own social media post. This may mean that the team is holding out on giving too much information, or the character may play a bigger role in the incomingHyrule Warriors: Age of Calamityevent forSuper Smash Bros. Ultimate.
