Kirby (カービィ, Kirby) is a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. He was confirmed on June 12th, 2018.

Changes from Super Smash Bros. 4

Aesthetics

• Stone has been given some new items to transform into, some of them outside of the Kirby series, such as a treasure chest found in Breath of the Wild's shrines.
• Like many other characters, Kirby is more expressive.
• When Kirby gains a new Copy Ability, he briefly poses like he does in his home series. This animation can be canceled.
• Up Taunt has been changed, removing the Kirby Dance to simply being the end pose.
• Victory Pose has been modified. New dances based off of ‘’Kirby’s Return to Dream Land’’ were added, and Kirby now splits into three separate Kirbys when not in team battles, referencing his home series.
• Kirby's cap for Zelda has been changed from her wimple she wore in Ocarina of Time to a hairstyle matching her new A Link Between Worlds-inspired look.

Standard attacks

• Kirby's dash attack has reverted to its Melee iteration, where Kirby does a tackle identical to the "Burning" copy ability. It no longer goes off of ledges and is stronger than his previous dash attack.
• Forward smash sends Kirby further, improving its range.
• Down smash has increased range and is more like it's Brawl version, as the ends of the feet send opponents at a horizontal angle.

Special moves

• Inhale has an updated visual effect.
• Stone has a faster startup and now deals 22.7%
• Hammer KOs even earlier when fully charged.
