However, this time online play is a paid service as part of Nintendo Switch Online. Rather than selecting from modes with specific rules, players can now choose their own preferred rules and the game will attempt to match players with similar desires. Compared to previous games, ''Ultimate'' allows for a wider selection of rules when playing with anyone. Just like ''Smash 4'', the latest version of the game must be downloaded to access the online modes for the same reasons. | ||
As of version 4.0.0, upon opening the ''Online'' submenu, the player is given four options: ''Smash'', ''[[Spectate]]'', ''[[Shared Content]]'', or ''[[Online Tourney]]''. Upon choosing ''Smash,'' there are three options to choose from: '''[[Quickplay]]''', '''[[Battle Arena]]s''', and '''[[Background Matchmaking]]'''. Quickplay has the player select ''Solo'' or ''Co-op'' (local), with a ''Preferred Rules'' switch underneath the two options. Preferred rules include the format, time limit, stage, stock count, whether Final Smash Meter is on or off, and which items should be turned on. If a player accrues enough Global Smash Power with a single fighter, the player can use that fighter in ''[[Elite Smash]]'': a mode similar to Quickplay where players are only matched with other players in Elite smash. However, the player needs to maintain that GSP count, and will be kicked from Elite smash if they dip below the threshold. | As of version 4.0.0, upon opening the ''Online'' submenu, the player is given four options: ''Smash'', ''[[Spectate]]'', ''[[Shared Content]]'', or ''[[Online Tourney]]''.
