“	Dark Pit is Pit's echo fighter. His abilities are mostly the same as Pit's, but his hair and clothes are different colors, he summons different weapons, and celebrates victory to a different tune.	”
—Super Smash Blog, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Official Site

Dark Pit (ブラックピット, Black Pit) is a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. He was confirmed as a playable character on June 12th, 2018. He is an Echo Fighter of Pit. Antony Del Rio once again reprises his role as Dark Pit in the English version of the game.

Differences from Pit

Aesthetics

• Dark Pit has different taunts and victory animations from Pit (although his taunt frames are identical)

Special moves

• Dark Pit's arrows from his Silver Bow have different properties
  • Silver Bow's arrows travel slightly faster, especially when uncharged, and deal more damage than Palutena Bow.
  • Silver Bow's arrows do not persist for as long, and cannot be easily controlled.
• Electroshock Arm deals electrical damage, and launches at a lower trajectory compared to Upperdash Arm.

• Dark Pit has a unique Final Smash, Dark Pit Staff, that acts completely differently to Lightning Chariot.

Changes from Super Smash Bros. 4

NOTE: 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

• Dark Pit retains his Kid Icarus: Uprising appearance. His clothing and wings now feature simple detailing, and like Pit, his eyes and hair appear more detailed.
• Dark Pit's down and side taunts are performed faster.

Attributes

• Like all characters, Dark Pit's jumpsquat animation now takes three frames to complete.
