==Trivia==
*The event takes place during June 20, 2021, which happens to be {{s|wikipedia|Father's Day}} in 91 countries.
**Incidentally, the event was announced around the same time {{SSBU|Kazuya}} (whose constant feuds with his father [[Heihachi]] and his son Jin are constantly recurring ''Tekken'' motifs) was announced as a DLC fighter in ''Ultimate''.
*The Donkey Kong & Lady, Dr. Wily, Garon, and Munchy Monk are the only spirits shown in the poster to not have any fighters (their children in this case) shown in place.
**Munchy Monk is the only one of the four to not have a fighter from its series, {{uv|Rhythm Heaven}}.
