Zero Suit Samus (ゼロスーツサムス, Zero Suit Samus) is a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, officially confirmed on June 12th, 2018. Once again, Zero Suit Samus is unconnected to the standard playable Samus, although she temporarily transforms into the latter during her Final Smash.

Changes from Super Smash Bros. 4
Aesthetics
- As with all veterans returning from SSB4, Zero Suit Samus's model mostly features a more subdued color scheme, though her eyes are a more vibrant green and less blue. Most of her suit is now a lighter shade of blue with a matte texture, which matches her in-game design in Metroid: Samus Returns.
- While Zero Suit Samus retains some design elements from SSB4, the material of her Zero Suit no longer looks homogeneous. Her physique has been altered as well, with her figure now being leaner and more muscular, as in Samus Returns.
- Zero Suit Samus has a new idle animation. She now holds the Paralyzer up to her head similar to one of her idle poses and victory animation.
Attributes
- Dash speed increased.
- Like all characters, Zero Suit Samus's jumpsquat animation now only takes three frames to complete.
- The change to airdodging greatly benefits Zero Suit Samus, as it allows her to reliably punish airdodges with her powerful Boost Kick and Flip Jump.
Ground Attacks
- Up smash has less vertical range.
- Down smash no longer treated as a projectile, meaning both characters experience hitlag/shieldlag.
- Down smash has significantly less knockback.
- Down smash's stun duration is affected more significantly by the opponent's percentage. It now stuns less at low percents.
Aerial Attacks
- All aerials have less landing lag.
- Back aerial’s sourspot is significantly bigger, meaning the move no longer has a blindspot.
- Back aerial’s sourspot has less knockback.
- Up aerial seems to be much harder to combo into itself, hindering its combo potential.
- Grab aerial follows her vertical movement, unlike Samus' new grab aerial. However, it goes limp after she lands (a purely aesthetic change).
Throws/other attacks
- All grabs have less startup and endlag.
- Down throw has more endlag, greatly reducing its combo potential.
- Back throw has more endlag, reducing its combo potential.
Special Moves
- Plasma Whip's sweetspot does more damage and significantly more knockback.
- Plasma Whip takes longer to tether to the ledge.
- Plasma Whip's tether range was reduced.
- Boost Kick has more landing lag.
- Flip Jump travels slightly faster.
- The bounce from Flip Jump's footstool stomp is significantly shorter.
- Flip jump's footstool stomp has less endlag.
- Zero Suit Samus has a new Final Smash where she summons her gunship as before, but temporarily dons her Varia Suit (using the same model as the playable version) and fires a single, long-lasting laser from the top of the ship, similarly to Aura Storm. The players chooses where to aim the laser with a targeting reticle.

Trivia
- Ridley's reveal trailer marks Zero Suit Samus' first appearance in a cinematic CGI Smash trailer since Super Smash Bros. Brawl.
- Despite no longer being linked by in-battle transformation, Zero Suit Samus temporarily dons the Varia Suit during her Final Smash.
- Zero Suit Samus is one of the few characters to have completely different Final Smashes in every game since the concept's introduction in Brawl, along with Pit, King Dedede and R.O.B..
