<p><strong>Update:</strong> A very recent update stated that Byleth is available right now, although as you may have found out for yourselves we’re still waiting for the fighter to drop. In our excitement, we pushed a button early – our apologies! We’ll be sure to update again when the fighter is <em>actually</em> available.</p>
<p>If all goes according to plan (and it’s worth noting that it might not), then Byleth <em>should</em> be launching today (January 28th at 6PM PDT) in North America and tomorrow (January 29th at 3AM CEST) in Europe. Pre-orders for the Fighters Pass Vol.2 should also be going live at the same time.</p>
