Mario (マリオ, Mario) is a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. He was teased in a trailer released on March 8th, 2018 before being fully confirmed as playable on June 12th, 2018.

Changes from Super Smash Bros. 4

Mario now wears Cappy; though he does appear to throw him around in a circle in the trailer, he does not appear to use him in any attacks.

Aesthetics

  • Change Although the primary aesthetic is nearly identical to the previous entry, Mario's overall appearance was given more detail, akin to Brawl while retaining the brighter colors of SSB4.
  • Change Mario's standard cap has been replaced by Cappy from Super Mario Odyssey. As of now, the only known change this grants is an additional aesthetic during Super Jump Punch, where Cappy's eyes appear during the move.
  • Change Mario seems to have two new taunts: one where he throws Cappy around in a circle, and another where he turns his back to the camera and gives a thumbs-up. They replace his up and side taunts.
  • Change Mario, like many other characters, has been made much more expressive in this game, to an even greater degree than its predecessor.
  • Change Mario’s attacks, especially ones involving fire, have been given brighter, flashier particle effects.
  • Change Mario's builder outfit from Super Mario Maker and his wedding tuxedo from Super Mario Odyssey are present as alternate costumes. They seem to have replaced his yellow Wario-inspired costume and his white Fire Mario costume, respectively.
  • Change Mario's idle animation is altered slighty, as his head is turned more towards the screen.

Ground Attacks

  • Change Mario has a new dash attack, with him performing a sliding kick.
  • Buff Dash attack deals more damage (8% to 9%).
  • Buff Neutral attack does more damage (8% to 9%) and knockback.

Aerial Attacks

  • Change Forward aerial has an altered animation, with Mario punching downwards without flipping.
  • Change Down aerial's final hit has an altered animation involving Mario spreading his limbs out.

Throws/other attacks

  • Buff Pummel is faster.
  • Nerf Pummel deals less damage (now dealing 1%).
  • Nerf Down throw has altered knockback and a more horizontal angle, making it more difficult to perform combos.
  • Buff Forward throw deals more damage (8% to 10%).
  • Buff Back throw deals more damage (10% to 14%) and is stronger.

Special Moves

  • Change The coins from the Super Jump Punch have been completely redesigned to look and sound like the Regional Coins found in Super Mario Odyssey’s Metro Kingdom.
  • Nerf Super Jump Punch requires a longer travel distance before being able to sweetspot a ledge.
  • Change F.L.U.D.D has an altered charging animation.
