Arms has concluded its generous schedule of free content updates, Nintendo has confirmed to Eurogamer.

The Switch-exclusive fighter has had a healthy helping of extra characters, stages, modes and fighting Arms since its release last summer - but the future of this content schedule has been up in the air since a mysterious statement posted to Nintendo's Japanese help websiteback in December.

Not really late. As is stated in the article, the only reason we knew this already was a tweet from Nintendo Japan. We never really got word on this from the US/EU sources. Now we do.

I for one am really sad about this. I'd have totally paid money for a Season 2/DLC deal. Hopefully we see a full on sequel soon, but based on the comments by the director (he wants people playing ARMS for 'years to come') it doesn't really sound like that'll happen.

Yeah, it's disappointing that the final product didn't reach the heights of Splatoon but I'm hoping we'll get an ARMS 2 somewhere down the line. Hopefully this time with substantial single player content. Seriously, the characters are far and away the most interesting part of the IP to me - a story mode with lots of interaction between the cast would be perfect.

I mean, if content is going to be adde, it would come from Nintendo in Japan.

What the US/EU branches clarify is meaningless especially when their clarification is exactly the same as what we learned nearly 2 months ago.

It's old news.
