<p>Today not only brings a <a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/news/2018/12/super_smash_bros_ultimate_version_1_2_0_is_now_live">Version 1.2.0 update</a> to <a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/games/nintendo-switch/super_smash_bros_ultimate"><strong>Super Smash Bros. Ultimate</strong></a>, but also sees its very first in-game event take place. <em>Lovely stuff.</em></p>
<p>Named ‘A Spectacle to Behold!’, this event aims to mix up the Spirit Board with a particular collection of characters to aim for. Spirits of characters who wear glasses or sunglasses will be coming out in force and, if you manage to defeat them, you’ll earn more gold than usual for your troubles, too.</p>

<p>As you can see in the tweet above, this also includes some rather special spirits that are usually pretty hard to find. If you want to add Jeff, Brewster, James McCloud, and Brittany to your collection (and who wouldn’t?) make sure to keep an eye on the board at those specific times each day.</p>
