Characters and RosterBy Brendan GraeberTiziano LentoO'Dell Edwin Harmon Jr.+263 moreUpdated: Sep 17, 2024 12:48am UTC

This page is part of IGN's Super Smash Bros. Ultimate wiki guide and details the full Smash Ultimate character roster. Super Smash Bros. Ultimate features every Fighter in Smash Bros. history together in one game, as well as several newcomers that we will add as they are revealed.

During the Nintendo E3 2018 conference Super Smash Bros. developer Masahiro Sakurai explained that the number next to each fighter's name "signifies the order in which they joined the Super Smash Bros. series", which gives some interesting insight into the history of the series' development. He also mentioned that he wanted players to unlock fighters as they play the game. So like the first game did on the N64, the initial starting roster only features 8 Fighters: Mario, Donkey Kong, Link, Samus, Yoshi, Kirby, Fox, and Pikachu.

Roster Changed.png

Nintendo has confirmed the release of additional Fighters through Feb. 2020. Smash Ultimate designated certain Fighters as "Echo Fighters." These are Fighters that feature very similar movesets and stats to another. As an example, Dark Samus is an Echo Fighter of Samus. Echo Fighters are resented by an epsilon (ε) next to their number.

Check out how the roster breaks down:

  • 76 Fighters in the base game.
  • 74 if you count Pokemon Trainer as one Fighter.
  • 69 different unique fighters, 7 Echo Fighters,
  • 1 additional DLC Fighter Piranha Plant.
  • 5 Fighter Pass DLC additions (the first of which is Joker April 2019).
  • 81 Total Fighters by Feb. 2020 (79 if you count Pokemon trainer as one)

In addition to the announced DLC character, Sakurai has confirmed that he will continue working on 6 more DLC fighters past the 5 that were part of the Fighter Pack 1.
