Sora, along with the franchise, and barring Disney and Pixar-related content, would be revealed for ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'' on October 5, 2021 as the last purchasable DLC character for both [[Fighters Pass Vol. 2]] and the game overall. The crossover happened after many years of fans showing their support to the then unthinkable event. During the last ''Mr. Sakurai Presents'' video, it was explained that Sora was the most requested character in the Super Smash Bros. Fighter Ballot back in 2015, contrarily to [[Bayonetta]] who was the most requested character and realizable to include in ''Super Smash Bros. 4''. In an interview featuring Tetsuya Nomura for the upcoming game ''Kingdom Hearts IV'', he has commented on Sora's inclusion in ''Ultimate'', which reveals Disney were supportive of adding him and the franchise in this game. However, Nomura was hesitant on adding Sora in ''Ultimate'' as he thought it would be tough to do it between both the franchise's lore and the Disney worlds, and Masahiro Sakurai's ''Super Smash Bros.'' series.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.gameinformer.com/exclusive-interview/2022/06/14/nomura-reveals-more-on-kingdom-hearts-iv-and-the-series-future-with|title=Nomura Reveals More On Kingdom Hearts IV And The Series' Future With Final Fantasy|author=Kimberley Wallace|date=June 14, 2022|accessdate=June 14, 2022|website=Game Informer}}</ref>

However, he met by chance a higher-up at Disney during an awards show, which let him have the chance to ask about adding the franchise in ''Ultimate''. During production, Sakurai had to make the reveal trailer "The Last Key" with a set of rules given by supervisors from Disney and Square Enix, and by respecting ''Kingdom Hearts''{{'}}s lore.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://kotaku.com/masahiro-sakurai-explains-how-sora-came-to-super-smash-1847906871|title=Masahiro Sakurai Explains How Sora Came To Super Smash Bros.
