Super Smash Bros lead Masahiro Sakurai says "there's no way" he can talk about what he's working on

Super Smash Bros. creator Masahiro Sakurai is up to something, but he's not ready to tell fans what that is. That's OK, though, because they're doing that part for him – though I suppose only he and his team know if anyone's actually got it right.

Speaking during an interview for the Famitsu 40th Anniversary Festival (translated by Genki_JPN on Twitter, below), Sakurai is asked what he's working on right now – a question that makes the dev smile, but gives an incredibly short response: "There's no way I could say that."

Well, it was worth a shot, right? The vague answer has opened the door to plenty of theories, anyway.

Masahiro Sakurai was asked what he is working on right now:Q: Can I ask you just one more question?A: Yes.Q: “What is Sakurai-san working on right now?”A: “There's no way I could say that.”https://t.co/kNLbhFl4lG https://t.co/xyCXwAft1ENovember 9, 2026

"It's Smash," one fan speculates, as another says: "Better be the next smash bros. It has to be." Another declares: "SMASH CONFIRMED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

This sort of assumption was always inevitable – it's been almost eight years since Super Smash Bros. Ultimate released, and while that game is obviously playable on Switch 2, it hasn't had its own enhanced version for Nintendo's latest console, so there is arguably a gap there for a new title. How the devs could top the enormity of Ultimate is another matter entirely, of course.
