'''Roy''' ({{ja|ロイ|Roi}}, ''Roy'') is a playable character in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', officially confirmed on June 12th, 2018.<!--Please give a source as to whether or not Ray Chase is in Ultimate, or if it's just Jun Fukuyama.-->

==Changes from ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''==
{{notice|[[SmashWiki is not speculative]]. Please refrain from adding detailed data values derived from pre-release gameplay footage, such as the E3 demo. Such data (damage values, launch trajectories, frame data, etc.) are subject to change before the official release.}}
===Aesthetics===
*{{change|As with all [[veteran]]s returning from ''SSB4'', Roy's model features a more subdued color scheme.}}
*{{change|Roy's dashing animation has been altered.}}
*{{change|Some of Roy's moves, such as his down aerial, have fire effects added to them.}}
*{{change|Roy's sweetspotted moves now use the sound effects from {{SSBU|Ike}}'s sword, [[Ragnell]].}}

===Attributes===
<!--Note: Roy's sword has been consistently called the Sword of Seals since Melee, including ingame trophies. Please follow this name instead of "Binding Blade" from the English translations of Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade.-->
*{{buff|Roy benefits significantly from ''Ultimate'''s mechanics, as the general faster pace of the game and reduction in lag allow him to play more aggressively and makes him more mobile.}}
*{{buff|Like all characters, Roy’s [[jumpsquat]] animation now takes three frames to complete.}}
*{{buff|Roy's hilt sweetspots have been increased in size.}}
*{{buff|Roy's [[air acceleration]] has been increased.}}
*{{nerf|Roy's double jump covers less distance.}}

===Ground Attacks===
*{{buff|Roy's [[neutral attack]] appears to have an altered animation, granting it more vertical range.}}
*{{buff|Dash attack has less ending lag.}}

===Aerial Attacks===
*{{buff|All aerials have less landing lag.}}
*{{buff|Forward aerial's autocancel window has been restored, meaning it now autocancels in a short hop.}}
*{{buff|Up aerial is stronger.}}
*{{change|Down aerial now deals [[flame]] damage and ignites the Sword of Seal during the move.}}

===Throws/other attacks===
*{{change|Roy's [[forward throw]] is now an elbow strike to the chest, just like {{SSBU|Marth}}'s.}}

===Special Moves===
*{{buff|As with {{SSBU|Marth}} and {{SSBU|Lucina}}'s [[Dancing Blade]], [[Double-Edge Dance]] transitions significantly faster into each hit. It can also now be buffered and is much harder to escape from.}}
*{{buff|Like with most non-storeable charge moves, Roy can now turn [[Flare Blade]] to the opposite direction while charging the move.}}
*{{change|Roy now removes the Sword of Seals from its sheath once he has finished sheathing it in [[Critical Hit]].}} <!--Note: Roy's sword has been consistently called the Sword of Seals since Melee, including ingame trophies. Please follow this name instead of "Binding Blade" from the English translations of Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade.-->
*{{change|Critical Hit now causes a flaming background to appear once the main hit is unleashed.}}
