The language selection offered by the site | 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. | 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.

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. | 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.
