Ganondorf (ガノンドロフ, Ganondorf) is a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.

Changes from Super Smash Bros. 4

Ganondorf has gone through some dramatic changes in design from Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and 3DS to Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, most notably in the aesthetic department. Ganondorf sports a remastered appearance from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time and now utilizes the sword from the Spaceworld 2000 Tech Demo and Super Smash Bros. Melee in his Smash Attacks. Additionally, he is granted a slight boost in power and altered animations for many of his moves, the latter of which furthering him from Captain Falcon and making him his own character for once in the series.
