Ultimate × Final Fantasy VII'', in line with {{SSB4|Cloud}}'s trailer for ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''. | **Oddly, Sephiroth's English trailer shown during The Game Awards is slightly different from the one uploaded subsequently to Nintendo's official channels: the crossover card states ''Super Smash Bros.

*When KO'd by reaching 0 HP during his final stock in [[Stamina Mode]], Sephiroth uses one of his heavy knockback voice clips instead of his standard KO voice clip. He shares this trait with {{SSBU|Mario}}, {{SSBU|Dr. Mario}} and all vocal DLC fighters except for Joker, {{SSBU|Banjo & Kazooie}}, and Byleth's Japanese voice. | *When KO'd by reaching 0 HP during his final stock in [[Stamina Mode]], Sephiroth uses one of his heavy knockback voice clips instead of his standard KO voice clip.

*When fighting both Master Hand and Crazy Hand in Classic Mode, Sephiroth will start on the far left side of the stage instead of at center stage.
