'''Captain Falcon''' ({{ja|キャプテン・ファルコン|Kyaputen Farukon}}, ''Captain Falcon'') returns as a playable character in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''. He was confirmed during a live stream on July 14th, 2014, which is exactly 16 years after ''F-Zero X'' was released for the Nintendo 64 in Japan in 1998, alongside {{SSB4|Lucina}} and {{SSB4|Robin}}. Captain Falcon is once again voiced by Ryō Horikawa, using recycled voice clips from ''Brawl''. | '''Captain Falcon''' ({{ja|キャプテン・ファルコン|Kyaputen Farukon}}, ''Captain Falcon'') returns as a playable character in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''.

Captain Falcon currently ranks 23rd on the ''SSB4'' [[tier list]], in the last spot | Captain Falcon currently ranks 23rd on the ''SSB4'' [[tier list]], in the last spot of B tier. This is a vast improvement over his 34th out of 38 ranking in ''Brawl''. His rise in the tier list is largely due to the changes to [[hitstun]] canceling, restoring Captain Falcon's previously lost [[combo]] game. As usual, he combines speed and power, with an impressive combo game and great finishers to boot; for example, his dash grab is formidable and covers a long distance, and his down throw serves as an excellent combo starter into multiple aerial attacks or as a finisher into the powerful, [[semi-spiking]] ever-famed [[Knee Smash]]. However, his [[recovery]] remains linear and lackluster, and he himself is still especially vulnerable to combos and [[camping]] with his physique, tall size, and high weight and [[falling speed]]. Overall, Captain Falcon has returned to the very viable position he held in ''64'' and ''Melee'', earning him strong representation and results, as well as the third largest tier rise out of the entire cast. | ||
