'''Joker''' ({{ja|ジョーカー|Jōkā}}, ''Joker'') will be released in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' on April 17th. He is announced at {{s|wikipedia|The Game Awards 2018}} on December 6th, 2018 as the second [[Downloadable content (SSBU)|DLC]] character and is the first downloadable character for the Fighters Pass. Joker is classified as fighter #71.

Xander Mobus, who voices Joker in ''Persona 5'' and the [[announcer]], [[Master Hand]], and [[Crazy Hand]] in ''Ultimate'', reprises his role as the character in the English version of the game, while Jun Fukuyama, who also voices [[Roy]], reprises his role in Japanese.

==Moveset==
*Joker has a special mechanic called a Rebellion Gauge, filled up by being hit while using Rebel's Guard. When it is full, Joker summons Arsene, and his special moves change to "Gun Special", "Eigaon", "Wings of Rebellion" and "Tetrakarn/Makarakarn", all enhanced versions of his previous moves.

==Trivia==
*Joker is the first selectable character in the series to share their voice actor with the announcer in the English version of the game, barring Master Hand's [[Adventure Mode: World of Light|playable]] [[Master Hand glitch|appearances]], as Master Hand is not a normally selectable character outside of these circumstances.
*Joker and Inkling are also the only newcomers in ''Ultimate'' to be announced without any gameplay footage in their reveal trailers. (Although Joker's third reveal trailer does.)
**Joker is also the only third-party character with this trait.
*Joker's has three reveal trailers (counting the separate versions as different trailers), and is the only character with this distinction: one was played during The Game Awards 2018, and one was officially posted online afterwards, which removes dialogue references to The Game Awards. The final one was posted online as well.
**Out of all the character reveals in both ''Smash 4'' and ''Ultimate'', Joker is the only character to be revealed at/in a non-Nintendo event/video.
*In Joker's reveal trailer, it is mentioned that he must have gone to The Game Awards 2018 to steal a treasure. According to Masahiro Sakurai in a Famitsu column, the treasure was an invitation to ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate''. <ref>https://nintendoeverything.com/sakurai-on-smash-bros-ultimate-jokers-reveal-getting-some-rest-and-more/</ref>
**The invitation is depicted as being enclosed in an envelope with a wax seal in the shape of the ''Super Smash Bros.'' logo. This is a callback to previous character reveal trailers for {{SSB4|Villager}} in ''Smash 4'' and {{SSBU|Isabelle}} in ''Ultimate''.
**An instrumental arrangement of Life Will Change plays fittingly during the reveal, as the song plays while the Phantom Thieves are infiltrating a Palace to steal a treasure after sending out a calling card.
*After {{SSBU|Sonic}} and {{SSBU|Bayonetta}}, Joker is the third guest fighter to represent Sega, as Atlus was acquired by Sega in 2013.
*Joker is the first character to use a realistic gun to attack.
