The [https://www.smashbros.com/ '''official website'''] for ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' launched on March 8th, 2018, shortly after the game's reveal trailer. It was later updated on June 12th, 2018, to accommodate for all the information about the game that was revealed.

==Overview==
==Overview==
The language selection offered by the site (not counting regional variants) includes English, Japanese, German, French, Italian, Spanish, Dutch and Russian, like [[Super Smash Bros. 4 Official Site|its predecessor]], but also includes Chinese and Korean translations, the former in both Traditional and Simplified. The language hub page also includes a link to the official Facebook page in European Portuguese, as Nintendo never opted for a dedicated Portuguese website since the game itself is not available in this language.
The language selection offered by the site includes English, Japanese, German, French, Italian, Spanish, Dutch and Russian, like its predecessor, but also includes Chinese and Korean translations, the former in both Traditional and Simplified. Portuguese is no longer available; instead, there is a link to a Facebook page.


The ''Home'' page  has the looping panoramic artwork of all revealed playable characters (including DLC), scrolling horizontally; below are the recent videos and the recent Smash Blog posts. The ''About'' page gives a brief overview of the game's content, with links to the subpages within the site regarding characters, stages, items, and music. There is also a ''How to Smash'' page, detailing how to play the game in a similar manner to the in-game [[How to Play]] videos in past installments, the advanced techniques such as Perfect Shield, and other elements such as [[spirit]]s and modes.

Finally, there is a ''Super Smash Blog'' page, similar to the daily updates on the DOJO!! and the ''Pics of the Day'' section on the ''Smash 4'' site, where series director [[Masahiro Sakurai]] posts about information regarding the game, discussing playable characters, stages, Assist Trophies, music, and items. The Japanese, Korean and Chinese (Traditional and Simplified) sites receive an additional post for some playable characters, labelled as "memories", where Sakurai discusses the origins of the character in question; however, on October 3, 2018, the American site received one as well. As of November 14, 2018, the site received four posts labeled "gameplay", where it talks about [[spirit]]s and various subjects about it. These posts are posted five days a week, Sunday through Thursday (in North American timezones; in Japan, they are weekday updates); the first week these updates went live is an exception, as the updates started on a Tuesday and ended on Friday.

Similar to the previous website, certain characters would receive links to the games that they appeared in. Unlike the previous website, they only appear for downloadable characters whose home games were available on Nintendo Switch when their webpages were added (for example, Joker has no link to ''Persona 5 Royal'' or ''Strikers'' due to not being given websites).

*None of the stages used in the background of character pages come from the [[Super Smash Bros.|original ''Super Smash Bros.'']]
*The British English version of the site uses Commonwealth English where appropriate; however, the Australian English version does not.

*For unknown reasons, the "Today's Flashback" for the original ''Star Fox'' is the only "Memory" to be translated on the American website.

*{{SSBU|Byleth}} and {{SSBU|Steve}} are the only characters whose alternate costumes are displayed alongside their default costumes on the official Ultimate site, with female Byleth and Alex also appearing separately on the slideshow at the top of the page.

**Additionally, because male and female Byleth have different names in Japanese, Korean, and Chinese, the lists of fighters on the website names both of them in those languages.

*{{SSBU|Joker}}, {{SSBU|Banjo & Kazooie}}, {{SSBU|Kazuya}}, and {{SSBU|Sora}} are the only downloadable characters who do not have a link to their home game. This is due to not having their games of origin on the Nintendo Switch at least at the time of their release.

*{{SSBU|Sephiroth}}, {{SSBU|Pyra}}, {{SSBU|Mythra}}, and Kazuya are the only characters with an ESRB reminder on their Fighter page. This oddly does not apply to other Teen or even Mature rated series. This same warning can be found on [[List of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate character trailers#Pyra / Mythra|Pyra and Mythra's trailer]].
*{{SSBU|Pyra}} and {{SSBU|Mythra}} are the only characters with an ESRB reminder below the link to their game. This oddly does not apply to other Teen rated titles with game links, such as ''Dragon Quest XI'' or ''Final Fantasy VII''
*For the versions in European languages, after information on Kazuya and {{uv|Tekken}} were added to the site, every series logo is no longer present. Instead, they were replaced with the name of the first fighter for each series. ''Tekken''{{'}}s is only present on each language's respective reveal trailer for Kazuya. This is similar to the replacements of the names of M-rated series that lack fighters in American Mii Costume trailers. The reason for this is unknown.
*Both {{uv|Tekken}} and {{uv|Kingdom Hearts}} were mentioned on the website as series various arrangers for ''Ultimate'' worked on in the past as part of the music webpage prior to being introduced as universes in-game in Fighters Pass Vol. 2.
