Spiral Mountain (クルクルやま, Spiral Mountain) is an upcoming downloadable stage in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. It will be bundled with Banjo & Kazooie as part of Challenger Pack 3 when it releases.
Description
Not much is currently known about the stage. The main platform appears to be the peak of Spiral Mountain. As shown in Banjo & Kazooie's introduction trailer, the entire stage seemingly rotates around characters and items. Additionally, a screenshot shows two wooden platforms on either side. Bottles, Mumbo Jumbo, and Gruntilda all cameo on the stage, with Gruntilda flying in the background on her broom.
Origin
Spiral Mountain is the starting area in Banjo-Kazooie and almost every other game afterwards. Banjo's house is located at the foot of the mountain, and Gruntilda the witch resides in a lair near its peak, connected via a rope bridge. In the first game, it serves as a tutorial area, where Bottles the mole teaches Banjo and Kazooie some basic abilities to prepare them for their adventure. The duo can explore around the mountain, find items such as extra honeycomb pieces and an extra life, and fight the mountain's living vegetation before heading into Gruntilda's lair.
In Banjo-Tooie, Spiral Mountain appears slightly different, with darker grass and troll-like enemies surrounding it. The bridge to Gruntilda's lair is broken off, and its inside has collapsed partially; only the initial lobby, occupied by Cheato the magic book, is accessible. The top of the spiral also has a flight pad, letting the pair explore more of its surroundings, including a waterfall cave.
In Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts, Spiral Mountain is briefly seen in the intro before Banjo, Kazooie, and Grunty warp to Showdown Town with the Lord of Games. The duo return there for the final boss fight against Gruntilda, and stay there after their adventure ends.
The design of Spiral Mountain and its surrounding area in Ultimate is largely based on its appearance in the original game, as the bridge to Gruntilda's lair is still open. There is also some influence from its appearance in Nuts & Bolts, particularly with regards to its color palette. The mixture of these two styles is most noticeably demonstrated with Banjo's house: its overall design is taken from its more detailed appearance in Nuts & Bolts, including Banjo's name written on the door, but rather than its disheveled look in Nuts & Bolts, it appears its original, undamaged condition from the first game.

Trivia
- Just like in the original Banjo-Kazooie, an Extra Life statue can be seen on top of the chimney to Banjo and Kazooie's house.
- Although Buzzbomb enemies can be seen flying in the background of the stage, Buzzbombs never appeared on Spiral Mountain in the original Banjo-Kazooie.
- Their appearance on this stage may therefore reference the opening sequence of the game, which features a Buzzbomb flying in the sky before it crashes into the Rareware logo.
