| 1,414 || {{SSBU|Min Min}} (Fighter)

*Min Min is the first spirit character to become a DLC fighter.

*Interestingly, despite Min Min's challenger pack including the appropriate musical themes for Spring Man, Min Min and Twintelle, as well as the home stage for Spring Man in the form of [[Spring Stadium]], their spirit battles do not change to accomdate them even after purchasing and downloading her pack, with Spring Man's spirit battle still utilizing the [[Boxing Ring]] stage while playing {{SSBUMusicLink|Other|Title Theme - Wii Sports Club}} for the music instead of using {{SSBUMusicLink|ARMS|Spring Stadium}}, Min Min's spirit battle still playing {{SSBUMusicLink|Mario Kart|Dragon Driftway}} for the music instead of {{SSBUMusicLink|ARMS|Ramen Bowl}}, and Twintelle's spirit battle still utilizing {{SSBUMusicLink|Super Mario Bros.|New Donk City}} for the music instead of {{SSBUMusicLink|ARMS|Cinema Deux}}.

*Despite appearing occasionally on the jumbotron in [[Spring Stadium]], Misango, Lola Pop, Springtron, and Dr. Coyle do not appear as spirits. These characters were added post-launch in ''ARMS''. Max Brass, however, does appear as a spirit despite also being added post-launch, though this may be due to him appearing in the base game as an NPC.

*Spring Man and Twintelle are the first DLC Spirit Board spirits to appear in the World of Light and on the regular spirit board.

*''ARMS'', {{uv|Ice Climber}}, and {{uv|Minecraft}} are the only series in ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'' with a playable character where all spirits originate from the same game.

**''ARMS'', {{uv|F-Zero}}, and {{uv|Punch-Out!!}} are the only series in ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'' with a playable character where all spirits use artwork from the same game, respectively being ''ARMS'', ''F-Zero GX'', and the [[Wii]] version of ''Punch-Out!!''. This is excluding ''Ice Climber'', which uses sprites, and {{uv|R.O.B.}}, which uses real-life photographs.

*Prior to Min Min's release, ''ARMS'' spirits were listed as "Others" spirits, and thus had no series symbol on the spirits list and a generic ellipsis on the party setup. This was changed after the 8.0.0 update.

*Min Min's primary spirit is the only ''ARMS'' spirit that does not appear on the ''ARMS'' DLC Spirit Board. This is likely due to {{SSBU|Min Min}} herself being a playable character.

*''ARMS'', ''Minecraft'', and {{uv|Final Fantasy}} are the only universes introduced as DLC to not have all of their spirit battles use songs from their own universe (not counting {{uv|Fatal Fury}}, whose songs from non-''Fatal Fury'' series are still grouped under ''Fatal Fury'' in the [[Sound Test]]). Unlike ''Minecraft'' and ''Final Fantasy'', this is due to said spirit battles already being featured in the base game, which had no songs from ''ARMS''.

*''ARMS'' and ''Final Fantasy'' are the only playable universes that had spirits in the base game to have more DLC spirits than base game spirits.
