Nintendo revealed the identity of Mario Sports Mix's last character today. Joining the Mario characters and Final Fantasy characters will be a character from an entirely different franchise: Slime!
The iconic Dragon Quest series enemy will be playable as a "tricky" type character. He won't face off against his armed opponents on his own, though. It looks like Slime can summon some of his multi colored Slime friends for assists.
You can view a video of Slime's special shot at the official site.
With Slime, the final roster for Mario Sports Mix reads:
- Mario
- Luigi
- Peach
