Elements

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, also known as simply Ultimate, contains even more Star Fox content than before. The Star Fox series is still strongly represented in Ultimate but it has received a significant rework from past titles. Now the franchise is primarily focused on the most recent installment, Star Fox Zero. Fox, Falco, and the previously absent Wolf all return as playable characters, using their designs and voices from this title. Many other elements from Star Fox Zero such as music, stage aesthetics, and Spirits make their way into Ultimate. In addition, content from earlier titles such as a new Assist Trophy and several Spirits are featured.

Characters[]

Coinciding with the tagline: "Everyone is Here!", all fighters from previous Smash, games return for "Ultimate", including Fox McCloud, Falco Lombardi and even Wolf O'Donnell (who missed out on the 3DS & Wii U game).

07. Fox: The fearless leader of the Star Fox team returns as a starting fighter with an updated design. He maintains his signature speed and "hit-and-run" fighting style, although the former has been nerfed in a few regards such as with Fox Illusion, and his Final Smash now calls in the rest of the Star Fox team for an all-out Arwing assault. Finally, Mike West reprises his role in the English release with updated voice clips.

20. Falco: The hotheaded wingmate of the Star Fox team returns as an unlockable fighter with an updated design. He maintains his remarkable jumping height and aerial prowess, and some of his animations such as his jab and up smash have been altered. His Final Smash also calls in the rest of Star Fox for an Arwing strike, albeit with a bit more unruliness and flair. Finally, Mark Lund reprises his role in the English release with updated voice clips.

44. Wolf: After being absent from Smash 4, the leader of the ragtag mercenary team Star Wolf finally returns as an unlockable fighter. His head is based on Star Fox Zero, but his body is unique to Ultimate. Many of his attacks and animations have been refined from his more feral portrayal in Brawl and his claw attacks now sport bright purple claw trails. His Final Smash now calls in the rest of Star Wolf for an all-out Wolfen assault. Finally, Jay Ward reprises his role in the English release with updated voice clips.
