This is the list of known changes in version 7.0.0 of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.

Donkey Kong[edit]

  • Buff Overall shield size has been increased.
  • Buff Donkey Kong's head is briefly intangible when activating and deactivating his shield.

Link[edit]

  • Buff Overall shield size has been increased.

Samus[edit]

  • Buff Overall shield size has been increased by 1.025×.
  • Buff Dash attack's early hit no longer deals less damage than the main hit (7% → 10%).
  • Buff Up smash's last hit has more knockback scaling (150 → 162), noticeably improving its KO potential.
  • Buff Down smash has more knockback scaling (58 → 70 (hit 1), 58 → 68 (hit 2)), drastically improving its KO potential.
  • Buff Grab aerial deals more damage (1.5% → 2.5% (hit 1), 3% → 4% (hit 2)), and the second hit has a longer duration (frames 16-17 → 16-19).
  • Buff Up throw has more knockback scaling (72 → 80), drastically improving its KO potential.

Dark Samus[edit]

  • Buff Overall shield size has been increased by 1.025x.
    • Buff Dark Samus's right arm is briefly intangible when activating and deactivating her shield.
  • Buff Dash attack's early hit no longer deals less damage than the main hit (7% → 10%).
  • Buff Up smash's last hit has more knockback scaling (150 → 162), noticeably improving its KO potential.
  • Buff Down smash has more knockback scaling (58 → 70 (hit 1), 58 → 68 (hit 2)), drastically improving its KO potential.
  • Buff Grab aerial deals more damage (1.5% → 2.5% (hit 1), 3% → 4% (hit 2)), and the second hit has a longer duration (frames 16-17 → 16-19).
  • Buff Up throw has more knockback scaling (72 → 80), drastically improving its KO potential.

Yoshi[edit]

  • Nerf Yoshi's shield hitbox is bigger. Since it is impossible to shield stab Yoshi, this does not improve his shield's safety, instead making it easier to hit from a distance.
  • Buff Yoshi's head and legs are briefly intangible after activating his shield.

Kirby[edit]

  • Buff Overall shield size has been increased.

Fox[edit]

  • Buff Fox stays in his new shielding pose after blocking an attack instead of reverting back to his pose from Smash 4, making it harder to shield stab Fox's head.

Pikachu[edit]

  • Buff Overall shield size has been increased.

Captain Falcon[edit]

  • Buff Overall shield size has been increased by 1.05×.
  • Buff The hitbox on neutral attack's first hit that launches opponents towards Captain Falcon has higher priority than one of the hitboxes that launches them away. This makes it more likely to pull opponents towards Falcon, allowing it to link better into the second hit.

Bowser[edit]

  • Buff Overall shield size has been increased by 1.075×.

Ice Climbers[edit]

  • Buff Overall shield size has been increased.

Sheik[edit]

  • Buff Overall shield size has been increased.
  • Buff Down smash has less startup (frame 11/18 → 8/15), with its total duration reduced as well (FAF 52 → 49).
  • Buff One of the hitboxes on down smash's first hit has been extended (Y offset: 8u → 5.2u-8u; Z offset: 7u → 0u-7u), while another of them launches at an angle more towards Sheik (140° → 165°). This allows it to connect more reliably into the second hit.
  • Buff Standing grab has more range (Z2 offset: 7.9 → 9.4 (ground only), 9.45 → 10.95 (air only)).
  • Buff Needle Storm has less landing lag (16 frames → 12), improving its combo potential.
  • Buff Burst Grenade has less ending lag (FAF 76-105 → 69-98 (grounded), 85-155 → 79-149 (aerial)).
  • Buff Burst Grenade's explosion has a longer duration (frames 50-51 → 50-53), and can no longer be negated by opposing attacks.
  • Buff Vanish's explosion has more knockback scaling (102 → 112), noticeably improving its KO potential.

Zelda[edit]

  • Buff Overall shield size has been increased.
  • Buff Forward tilt deals more damage (10%/12% → 11.5%/15%), with knockback scaling not fully compensated (70/70 → 68/69). This significantly improves its KO potential to the point it is even stronger than in Smash 4, with the sweetspot KOing at around 120% from the center of Final Destination.
  • Change Neutral aerial's looping hits launch aerial opponents at more horizontal angles (92°/270°/92°/270° → 132°/230°/152°/210°), causing them to connect more reliably if Zelda is drifting away, but less reliably when Zelda is rising or falling.
    • Nerf Due to now sending toward Zelda's opposite side, the final hit's launch direction is much more volatile. This makes follow-ups more difficult, especially from an auto-canceled short hop.
  • Buff Neutral aerial has less landing lag (15 frames → 12), matching its Brawl counterpart. This improves its combo potential, making KO setups into Lightning Kicks more reliable.
  • Buff Up aerial has a bigger hitbox (8u → 9u), increasing its range.
  • Buff Up aerial's clean hit has more knockback scaling (70 → 73).
  • Buff Up aerial has a new late hit that increases its duration (frames 14-16 → 14-19), and deals less damage (17% → 12%) with knockback not compensated.
  • Buff Din's Fire's sweetspot is larger (2.6u → 3.5u), and the explosion's hitbox is active for longer (4 frames → 6).
  • Buff Phantom Slash deals more damage on all charges (4.7% → 5.9% (level 1), 6.6% → 8.2% (level 2), 8.5%/9.4% → 10.5%/11.8% (level 3), 11.3%/12.2% → 14.1%/15.4% (level 4), 14.1% → 17.7% (level 5)), with knockback scaling partly compensated on the highest two charges (60 → 57 (level 4), 75 → 68 (level 5)).

Dr. Mario[edit]

  • Buff Forward tilt deals more base damage (7% → 9%), with knockback scaling not fully compensated (70 → 65).
  • Buff Down tilt has less knockback scaling (80 → 55), and inflicts 3 additional frames of hitstun. This significantly improves its combo potential, granting it KO setups into Super Jump Punch at high percents.
  • Buff Neutral aerial's late hit deals more base damage (8% → 10%), with knockback scaling not fully compensated (102 → 94).
  • Buff Down aerial has a longer hitbox duration (frames 16-17 → 16-19).

  • Buff Up aerial has more knockback scaling (77 → 82), slightly improving its KO potential.

  • Buff Grab aerial has less startup lag (frame 11 → 9).
