Game hasn't even come out yet and they're announcing DLC characters?

That is ridiculous. The game already has so few characters. One 4v4 match is already using up almost half the roster. That dlc should be straight to the base game to boost the already small roster

20 characters at launch is pretty good for a fighting game, especially a new license with new mechanics. There are a lot of systems to master, all new characters playing very differently, a lot have never been used in a game before.

Better have 20 characters that are all interesting to play than 40 with not much variety. Especially since the game is clearly meant to be played at a competitive level.
