As in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'', {{s|mariowiki|Samantha Kelly}}'s portrayal of Peach from ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' was repurposed for ''Ultimate''.
As in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'', {{s|mariowiki|Samantha Kelly}}'s portrayal of Peach from ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' was repurposed for ''Ultimate''.


Peach, alongside her [[Echo Fighter]] {{SSBU|Daisy}}, is ranked 7th out of 82 on the current [[tier list]], placing her in the S- tier. This is a notable improvement from her 20th out of 54 placement in ''SSB4'', and is her best placement in the series. Peach is one of the most unique characters in the game with her ability to float and do some of the most damaging combos in the game through float canceling as well as an amazing movement option and recovery tool. Her [[Vegetable]] is also an outstanding and versatile item projectile that aids with her combo game as well as a solid edgeguarding tool. Her edgeguarding is also amazing thanks to her aforementioned float, allowing her to go far and deep with moves such as forward aerial, back aerial, neutral aerial, and more. While ''Ultimate'' introduced a multiplier that reduces damage if performing aerials in a [[short hop]], she can completely ignore it by performing a full hop and float next to the ground, and since all her aerials can autocancel in a short hop, she can avoid the landing lag more easily than other characters. Floating also allow her to safely pressure her opponent's shields. All in all, this gives Peach some of the best and most dominant aerial games in ''Ultimate''.
Peach, alongside her [[Echo Fighter]] {{SSBU|Daisy}}, is ranked 7th out of 82 on the current [[tier list]], placing her at the top of the S- tier. This is a notable improvement from her 20th out of 54 placement in ''SSB4'', and is her best placement in the series. Peach's ability to float turns what would be a modest moveset into a major threat in the hands of top-level players. The ability to maintain her vertical position through floating makes for an amazing movement option and recovery tool, while also assisting in some of the most damaging combos in the game. Her [[Vegetable]] is an outstanding and versatile item projectile that aids with combos, edgeguarding, and occasionally zoning. Her edgeguarding is also amazing thanks to the aforementioned float, allowing her to go far offstage with little risk, or hover near the ledge to line up and land an aerial with relative ease. By floating right above the ground, Peach can effectively turn her air attacks into ground attacks. This ground-level floating also bypasses Ultimate's short-hop multiplier and makes it easier to land right after using an aerial and optimize its shield safety and pressure. All in all, this gives Peach one of the best aerial games in ''Ultimate''.


However, Peach has several flaws. She is somewhat of a light character so she is susceptible to getting KO’d at fairly early percents. She is also lacking in range allowing for characters like {{SSBU|Shulk}} and {{SSBU|Cloud}} to wall her out effectively or hit her float. Peach also has some difficulty landing or getting back to the ground making her prone to juggling and her air dodge being one of the worst in terms of endlag. Finally, Peach is one of the most difficult characters to play because of her unique strengths and her float canceling techniques being a bit much for human error to take into account due to her precision.
While floating alleviates a variety of would-be weaknesses, Peach still isn't flawless, suffering from a wholly undesirable combination of a fairly tall hurtbox, low weight, and very slow falling speed, with subpar dash speed to boot. Even with access to float-centric mixups, Peach has some difficulty escaping juggles owing to her air dodge being one of the worst in terms of endlag. Her heavy reliance on aerials in the neutral game and somewhat ineffective smash attacks mean that she can sometimes have difficulty with KO-ing opponents as her aerials become [[Stale-move negation|stale]]. She is also lacking in disjointed range, allowing for characters like {{SSBU|Shulk}} and {{SSBU|Cloud}} to wall her out effectively and stuff out floating approaches. Finally, Peach is one of the most difficult characters to use effectively since her float canceling techniques, while exceedingly effective, are undeniably very demanding to perform, ensuring that being ranked as high as 7th is only warranted for those who really know what they're doing.


Overall, Peach is a strong character that can do a lot of damage but she requires a lot of dedication and commitment to take her to the highest level. Both Peach and her echo Daisy have consistently been seen as among the best characters in the game throughout the game’s lifespan, with most notably {{Sm|Samsora}} in the early metagame showing strong results at supermajors before the COVID-19 pandemic. In the post pandemic era, players such as {{Sm|MuteAce}} and {{Sm|Umeki}} have continued to bring strong results for her.

In terms of direct changes, her [[forward aerial]], previously one of her most effective KO moves, is weaker and has received a sourspot, making it more difficult to use effectively. Her [[dash attack]] and [[back throw]] both have reduced knockback as well.

Overall, Peach has considerably better than her ''SSB4'' incarnation thanks to a superior mobility and combo game, and the changes to ''Ultimate''{{'}}s mechanics have further strengthened her caveats. However, Peach still retains some of her weaknesses from the previous game, such as her overall poor mobility, and her somewhat light weight and extreme floatiness rendering her vulnerable to vertical KOs and juggling, the latter of which gives her trouble landing safely. Game updates have also brought some noticeable nerfs to Peach; though the metagame's optimization has shown this has only mildly impacted her viability. Ultimately, Peach fares much better than she did in ''SSB4'', and this is considered to be her strongest incarnation in the series, even above [[Peach (SSBM)|her initial ''Melee'' iteration]].

Peach's Fighter Spirit can be obtained by completing {{SSBU|Classic Mode}}. It is also available periodically for purchase in the shop for 300 Gold, but only after Peach has been unlocked. Unlocking Peach in World of Light allows the player to preview the first spirit below in the Spirit List under the name "???". As a Fighter Spirit, it cannot be used in Spirit Battles and is purely aesthetic. Her Fighter Spirit has an alternate version that replaces it with her artwork in ''Ultimate''.
