*'''All Taunts:''' Hides in a cardboard box; all three of his taunts are variations of this. His up taunt is fastest to cancel, his down taunt is the slowest, and his side taunt is in-between.

This is possible only on Snake's home stage, [[Shadow Moses Island]], can only be done on characters that were playable in ''Brawl'', cannot be done on {{SSBU|Ike}}'s Radiant Dawn costume, and is performed by inputting the down taunt command extremely quickly. Snake will hold a pose for a few seconds, then a conversation between Snake and his support team will begin. This can only be done once each round and if the player is hit while Snake is holding his pose before the conversation starts, it is canceled. However, the player can be hit while the conversation is going, though the conversation ends if Snake is KO'd, which, in a nod to the ''Metal Gear Solid'' game over screens, causes the character Snake was talking with to shout ''"SNAAAAAAAAKE!!"''. It can be done with any number of other players on the screen; if there is more than one opponent, the game will randomly choose one to talk about.

*'''Side taunt''': Places the {{iw|zeldawiki|Deku Shield}} on his back and holds out his hand, watching {{iw|zeldawiki|Navi}} fly around him. The pose of his hand is the same one he makes in one of his [https://zeldawiki.wiki/wiki/File:MM_Link_Tatl_Artwork.png artworks] from ''{{s|zeldawiki|The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask}}'', only using Navi instead of Tatl. Similar to {{SSBB|Link}}'s side taunt from ''Brawl'' and ''Smash 4''.
*'''Side Taunt''': [[Navi]] appears next to him, as he turns to face her. Similar to Link's old side taunt. The pose he strikes at the end of taunt, references [[zeldawiki:File:MM Link Tatl Artwork.png|artwork]] from ''[[zeldawiki:The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask]]''.
*'''Down taunt''': Sheaths the Kokiri Sword and places the Deku Shield on his back and takes a drink of {{iw|zeldawiki|Lon Lon Milk}}. Significantly shortened from ''Melee'', as he takes one big gulp instead of two gulps.
*'''Down Taunt''': Drinks his {{s|zeldawiki|Lon Lon Milk}}. Much faster than in ''[[Melee]]'', as he now chugs once rather than three times.
