Lucas is the second DLC fighter for the latest Smash Bros. title (after Mewtwo). Lucas was a character in Super Smash Bros. Brawl for the Wii, but he was one of the few roster members from that game not to initially appear in the Wii U/3DS release. He originally starred in Mother 3, a Game Boy Advance role-playing game that was the sequel to Earthbound on the Super Nintendo. Mother 3 never got a U.S. release.

Lucas will cost $4 separately for the Wii U and 3DS versions or $5 for both.
