Super Smash Bros 4 Pic of the Day Features Gameplay of Fire Emblem's Robin; Levin Sword and Tomes Showed off (PICTURE)

In today's Super Smash Bros 4 Pic of the Day Fire Emblem's Robin is showcased using his different moves in two screenshots.

"Pic of the day. The Levin sword and tomes are Robin's life lines. The Levin sword can be activated by using smash attacks--you can even activate these moves in midair! However, just like in the original game, the Levin sword can be used only a limited number of times before it breaks, at which point it takes some time to regenerate. When the Levin sword is unavailable, Robin fights using the bronze sword," wrote game developer Masahiro Sakurai in the Nintendo Miiverse.

"The way Robin launches Arcfire is kind of crazy"”he or she calls down a bolt of flame from above, then launches a pillar of fire! By the way, Robin's tome changes with each special attack," Sakurai continued in the second screenshot.

Robin along with Lucina were announced on Monday as the new Fire Emblem characters who will be joining Ike and Marth.
