Since its launch on Switch last September, the title has already received a number of improvements, and in this latest update there are even more Switch-specific fixes. Along with this we have the addition of the new Kameo Fighter Mavado.

You can learn more about the next DLC fighter in our previous post. He is from Amazon’s hit series ‘The Boys’ and continues Omni-Man, Peacemaker and various other characters and Kameo Fighters. Of course, to play as him you’ll need to have access to the Kombat Pack.
