'''Suzaku Castle''' ({{ja|朱雀城|Suzaku-jō}}, ''[[wikipedia:Vermilion Bird|Suzaku]] Castle'') is a stage in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'' based on Ryu's stage from ''Street Fighter II''. The stage takes place on the rooftop of the Japanese castle, and features two long walk-off platforms on the right side of the stage and two smaller platform on the left side. Signposts located on the longest platform will break if a fighter is launched past them. Once all the signs are broken, they will eventually repair.

*On this stage, if the current song playing is {{SSB4MusicLink|Street Fighter|Ryu Stage Type A}} or {{SSB4MusicLink|Street Fighter|Ken Stage Type A}} and the timer reaches 30 seconds in a [[Time|timed match]], or the last opponent has one stock left in a [[Stock|stock match]], or when the last opponent's HP is under 100 in a [[Stamina Mode|stamina match]], or during [[Sudden Death]], a sped-up version of the respective song will play. This references ''{{s|wikipedia|Street Fighter II}}'', where the stage music speeds up when a fighter loses half of their health.

**During the video that showed off Suzaku Castle, it stated that the music changing was a series first; this is false, as the {{SSB|Mushroom Kingdom}} stage in ''SSB'', and the {{SSBM|Mushroom Kingdom}} and [[Mushroom Kingdom II]] stages in ''Melee'', also had distinct music that would play near the end of a time match. However, the music on Suzaku Castle also changes when one player is down to one stock in a stock battle, which is a first for the series.

*The kanji written on the destructible signs are "{{ja|風林火山|Fūrinkazan}}", or "{{s|wikipedia|fūrinkazan}}", a Japanese expression meaning something along the lines of "As fast as the wind, as quiet as a forest, as daring as fire, and as immovable as a mountain", in reference to ''{{s|wikipedia|The Art of War}}''. These same kanji appear on Ryu's obi.

*The Suzaku Castle is the only downloadable stage bundled with a DLC character - in this case, {{SSB4|Ryu}}.

*On the Omega form of this stage, Ryu will walk right though a sign during his [[on-screen appearance]] if he is given the left-most or right-most spawn point.
