Peach was confirmed to be playable in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'' on September 12, 2013. She was the third female character to be announced for the game after Samus and Wii Fit Trainer. Her facial structure appears more similar to her home series than her past ''Smash Bros.'' appearances and her dress has been made more stylized and less detailed. Her hair is also lighter and more brightly-shaded. She now has new attack effects, such as a ribbon swirling around her during her up smash. Like Mario, Luigi and Bowser, her design is based on her appearance from recent ''Mario'' games at the time of ''Smash 4''{{'}}s release, such as ''Super Mario 3D World'' and ''Mario Kart 8''.

Peach was buffed overall in the transition from ''Brawl'' to ''SSB4''. Her ground game has been improved thanks to stronger smash attacks and a faster [[Peach Bomber]]. Her forward aerial, dash attack, and back throw were also given more knockback, granting better KO options. However, her [[Vegetable]] special was moderately nerfed, as they take longer to pluck, weakening her [[projectile]] game. Her slow movement speed also gives her a disadvantage against fast characters, and her light [[weight]] and floatiness makes her easy to launch. Nonetheless, Peach ranks 20th out of 55 on the [[tier list]], at the bottom of the B tier. While viewed as a solid pick for competitive play, she lacks noteworthy tournament results to speak of, even with her few dedicated players.
