Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is going to receive its second DLC character, Joker from Persona 5, in around two months. The character will be released alongside a brand new stage, and it seems like the name of the stage can already be found in the game's files.
A dataminer called Dr.HyperCake has taken a good look at the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate game data and has discovered a reference to "Jack_Menentoes", hinting at the fact that a Mementos may be the new stage releasing alongside Joker.
Digging through LVD files in Ultimate, and I found "Jack_Menentoes_" lying around amongst the strings. The format of this string matches stage name strings in ui_stage_db ("[Series]_[Stage]"), and Joker's internal name is "jack". Mementos stage confirmed? pic.twitter.com/eCh3PxU2bR

The first Super Smash Bros. Ultimate DLC character, Piranha Plant, has been released earlier this month in all regions. The character has been made available for free to all those who purchase the game before February. Unlike all upcoming DLC characters, Piranha Plant is not part of the game's Fighter Pass, and can only be purchased separately.
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is one of the best fighting games released last year and one of the best entries in the series ever, with a big character roster and the huge amount of single-player content.
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is definitely the Ultimate rendition of a beloved series. It’s still the most accessible and interesting fighting game out there, and it’s now better than ever. A little familiar in places, but this is the best Smash has ever been. Another essential Nintendo Switch game.
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is now available on Nintendo Switch in all regions.
