Donkey Kong (ドンキーコング, Donkey Kong) is a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. He was confirmed on June 12th, 2018. He retains his voice clips from Super Smash Bros. 4, although as with Bowser, these could potentially be placeholder voice clips.
Changes from Super Smash Bros. 4

Aesthetics
As with all veterans returning from SSB4, Donkey Kong's model features a more subdued color scheme. His fur is less detailed, and his facial proportions have been tweaked.- Donkey Kong's nose is now based on his design from Mario Party 10 onwards.
- Like most of the returning roster, Donkey Kong has become much more expressive than in the previous games.
- Donkey Kong now always faces the screen regardless of which direction he turns. This makes most of his animations mirrored and alters some of his animations, such as his walk/dash animations.
- Up taunt has an altered animation.
- Donkey Kong now hangs onto the ledge with one hand instead of two.
- Hand shaking victory pose has an altered animation. He now looks at the camera at the freeze frame and shakes his hands as opposed to his whole body afterwards.
Attributes
Donkey Kong benefits from the universal 3 frame jumpsquat, making ground to air transitions faster.
Ground Moves
- Down tilt has an altered animation.
- Forward smash has an altered animation.
- Up smash can now hit grounded opponents.
Aerial Attacks
- Forward aerial has an altered animation, with Donkey Kong performing a downwards punch without flipping, now looking identical to his aerial attack in Donkey Kong 64.
- Forward aerial is significantly faster.
Throws/other attacks
- Cargo throw now involves Donkey Kong hauling the opponent over his shoulder, similar to his appearance in the arcade game Donkey Kong.
Special Moves
- For the first time in the series, he can use either his right arm or left arm to use his Giant Punch, due to his mirrored stance.
Giant Punch has more ending lag.- Aerial Giant Punch no longer causes Donkey Kong to become helpless.
- Donkey Kong now charges up Giant Punch with more circular arm motions. Additionally, his expression slowly gets angrier as he charges (including maintaining the expression throughout other animations after its charge), and he has an altered pose upon using the punch.
- Headbutt now has super armor.
- Donkey Kong now glints and strikes a pose upon ending a grounded Spinning Kong.
- Aerial Spinning Kong travels a shorter distance.
- Aerial Spinning Kong's multiple hits now connect better into a new final hit, giving it more utility.
- Aerial Hand Slap has significantly less landing lag, making it a safe on shield and a potential combo starter.
- Donkey Kong now has a new Final Smash (name unknown) that comprises of a single punch that, if successfully landed, leads to a series of rapid punches that traps and launches the opponent, based off of his attacks in Donkey Kong Jungle Beat.
