'''Battlefield''' ({{ja|戦場|Senjō}}, ''Battlefield'') is a stage in ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]', ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', [[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'', and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''.  It was the very first stage revealed for ''Ultimate'' during the [[Nintendo Direct]] of [[Electronic Entertainment Expo|E3]] 2018.

==Stage layout==
==Stage layout==
Like its predecessors, Battlefield consists of a central, solid [[platform]], with [[ledge]]s at its sides that can be grabbed. Above this platform, there are three more soft platforms, arranged in a triangular layout. The Battlefield stages in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'', the background shifts between light and dark. However, in this iteration, this is due to a regularly-occurring {{s|wikipedia|solar eclipse}} rather than a day/night cycle.

However, in this iteration, this is due to a regularly-occurring {{s|wikipedia|solar eclipse}} rather than a day/night cycle.


Visually, Battlefield takes place in a futuristic ruins setting, but has gone through multiple aesthetic changes throughout the Smash installments.
In ''Ultimate'', the Battlefield seems to combine some of the visual aesthetics from the two previous Battlefields (three if the 3DS and Wii U versions of Battlefield are separate). Once again, the stage is made mostly of rock, with bushes and shrubs growing on the side. Behind the main fighting area, there is a half crumbled arch to the left, and ice shards to the right. On the underside, there is a giant, jagged piece of ice at the bottom, surrounded by rock. The ice does not collide with anything, making Battlefield completely symmetrical. Ruins are present in the background, similar to the Wii U version of the stage, but there are now waterfalls where empty sky used to be. In the distance, a slightly torn flag with the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series logo on it waves, similar to ''Smash for Wii U''.
===Ω form and Battlefield form===
Battlefield's [[Ω form]] is identical to the regular stage, but with the soft platforms removed. Unlike {{SSB4|Battlefield}}'s Ω form in ''Smash 4'', which was lengthened, this stage is the same length as the normal Battlefield, as {{SSBU|Final Destination}} is now the same length as Battlefield.


In ''Smash 64'', as the description above suggests, the Battlefield consists of a main central platform with three soft floating platforms arranged in a pyramid formation. The stage is set against a background consisting of multicolored flames, with leaves at the top of the screen.
Battlefield itself can be selected as a [[Battlefield form]], but doing so is identical to selecting the normal form.


In ''Melee'', the Battlefield is given a major redesign owing to the graphical improvements from the N64 to the Nintendo GameCube. It retains the original design, but now has a black frame beneath it, whereas the stage in Smash 64 was divided into sections, with a multicolored glowing orb in the middle of the frame. The stage now has a slight rainbow effect in the aesthetic, and it is set in a night sky, with a cluster of stars in the background.

In ''Brawl'', some of the design from ''Melee'' was left unchanged, but the aesthetic of the stage was altered to now incorporate natural features into it. In addition to the original layout, the base of the main platform is now made of rock with foliage and small bushes growing onto it, with a small pond in front of the stage's center. On the underside of the rock, a  glowing object hangs upside-down. In the back of the stage, there are crumbling ruins, rocks, and a few small bushes with berries growing on them.
===Available [[Assist Trophies]]===
All Assist Trophies are available on this stage.


In ''Smash 4'', the overall design of the stage is relatively similar to ''Brawl'', but the stages differ between the two versions:
==Tournament legality==
Battlefield is universally considered a starter stage like in all previous games since ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''. Its symmetrical layout and overall size being large enough for movement tech but not large enough to encourage stalling makes it among the most fair stages on the roster. New to this game, all stages have a Battlefield form that converts Battlefield into the aesthetic of any given stage. Any Battlefield form of a stage can be chosen in place of regular Battlefield and will be struck alongside it. However, a few Battlefield forms are specifically banned, including stages that manipulate the Z-Axis, [[Windy Hill Zone]] for concealing the ground, and [[Gamer]] for obscuring the blast zone.


In the Nintendo 3DS version, there are two large trees in the background, and there is an archway with stairs floating behind the stage in front of massive pillars of rock. Behind the main path of the stage is a small, crumbling wall, and there is a small pool of water in front of the main path, which drains over the side of the stage.
==Update history==
 
'''{{GameIcon|ssbu}} 8.1.0'''
In The Wii U version, the bottom of the stage appears to be more jagged, with small ledges jutting out the side, with yellow lines going through the rock. There are two slightly ripped flags with the ''Super Smash Bros.'' logo emblazoned on them, and massive ruins float behind the stage. Additionally, a giant moon can be seen in the background.
*Players can now select any stage-specific music for the Battlefield stage.

Battlefield (戦場, Battlefield) is a stage in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. It was the very first stage revealed for Ultimate during the Nintendo Direct of E3 2018. Ryu is fought here for his unlocking battle. Pokémon Trainer is fought here in his unlock battle in World of Light.

Stage layout[edit]

Like its predecessors, Battlefield consists of a central, solid platform, with ledges at its sides that can be grabbed. Above this platform, there are three more soft platforms, arranged in a triangular layout. As in Super Smash Bros. Brawl and Super Smash Bros. 4, the background shifts between light and dark. However, in this iteration, this is due to a regularly-occurring solar eclipse rather than a day/night cycle.

In Ultimate, the Battlefield seems to combine some of the visual aesthetics from the two previous Battlefields (three if the 3DS and Wii U versions of Battlefield are separate). Once again, the stage is made mostly of rock, with bushes and shrubs growing on the side. Behind the main fighting area, there is a half crumbled arch to the left, and ice shards to the right. On the underside, there is a giant, jagged piece of ice at the bottom, surrounded by rock. The ice does not collide with anything, making Battlefield completely symmetrical. Ruins are present in the background, similar to the Wii U version of the stage, but there are now waterfalls where empty sky used to be. In the distance, a slightly torn flag with the Super Smash Bros. series logo on it waves, similar to Smash for Wii U.

Ω form and Battlefield form[edit]

Battlefield's Ω form is identical to the regular stage, but with the soft platforms removed. Unlike Battlefield's Ω form in Smash 4, which was lengthened, this stage is the same length as the normal Battlefield, as Final Destination is now the same length as Battlefield.

Battlefield itself can be selected as a Battlefield form, but doing so is identical to selecting the normal form.

Available Assist Trophies[edit]

All Assist Trophies are available on this stage.

Tournament legality[edit]

Battlefield is universally considered a starter stage like in all previous games since Super Smash Bros. Melee. Its symmetrical layout and overall size being large enough for movement tech but not large enough to encourage stalling makes it among the most fair stages on the roster. New to this game, all stages have a Battlefield form that converts Battlefield into the aesthetic of any given stage. Any Battlefield form of a stage can be chosen in place of regular Battlefield and will be struck alongside it. However, a few Battlefield forms are specifically banned, including stages that manipulate the Z-Axis, Windy Hill Zone for concealing the ground, and Gamer for obscuring the blast zone.
