Sheik in Super Smash Bros. 4
Universe	The Legend of Zelda
Other playable appearances	in Melee in Brawl
Final Smash	Light Arrow

Sheik has been confirmed to return as a playable fighter in Super Smash Bros. 4. Unlike in previous Smash games, she is now a completely separate character from Zelda, and the two are no longer able to transform into the other under any circumstance. Like the other The Legend of Zelda characters, Sheik maintains the same aesthetic style she had in Brawl. However, Sheik appears physically more muscular than her appearance in Brawl. This gives her a body-type closer to her Ocarina of Time incarnation, which was more masculine in appearance than her Twilight Princess concept art.

Confirmed information

• Sheik has two new special moves.
  • Burst Grenade appears similar to the previous side special of Chain, except that the chain now has an explosive on the end instead of dealing damage itself. Her side taunt has changed to reflect this, where she pulls out the string from Burst Grenade as oppose to her Chain.
  • Bouncing Fish is her new down special move, an acrobatic kick attack.
• The following moves appear visually unchanged:
  • Neutral attack
  • Forward tilt
  • Down tilt
  • Up smash
  • Down smash
  • Neutral aerial
  • Needle Storm
  • Vanish
  • Light Arrow
  • Side taunt
  • Up taunt
• Sheik can still wall cling
• Sheik can still crawl

Special Moves

In Super Smash Bros. 4, special moves can be swapped out for different variants, but Sheik's have yet to be seen. She retains her final smash as well as two of her original special moves. Burst Grenade has unprecedentedly replaced Chain. Transform has been replaced with Bouncing Fish, because Zelda has become her own character. These are Sheik's special moves:

Special Move	Basic	Custom 1	Custom 2
Neutral Special	Needle Storm	-	-
Side Special	Burst Grenade	-	-
Up Special	Bouncing Fish	-	-
Down Special	Light Arrow	-	-
