King K. Rool (キングクルール, King K. Rool) is a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. He was announced as a newcomer in a Nintendo Direct on August 8, 2018.
Attributes
- K. Rool's design is based on his appearance in the original Donkey Kong Country, with his cape going down to his waist instead of stopping at his middle back and his belly having its golden sheen. His scales are also more pronounced than any other appearance.
- He uses various moves from his appearances in the Donkey Kong Country games, including his crown throw from the original, his blunderbuss from Donkey Kong Country 2, his helicopter backpack from Donkey Kong Country 3, and his boxing gloves from Donkey Kong 64. His Final Smash is also based on the game over screen from the latter game, where, after dashing into his foes, he uses his Blast-O-Matic to destroy Donkey Kong Island with his victims on it.
- This is the first time in a decade where K. Rool has made a physical appearance, as opposed to references such as trophies and costumes.
