Captain Falcon (キャプテン・ファルコン, Captain Falcon) is a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. He was confirmed on June 12th, 2018. Captain Falcon is once again voiced by Ryō Horikawa, using recycled voice clips from Brawl and Smash 4.
Changes from Super Smash Bros. 4
Aesthetics
- As with all veterans returning from SSB4, Captain Falcon's model features a more subdued color scheme. The top piece of his racing suit appears to be armor with visible scuffs. His eyes are larger, akin to Brawl.
- Captain Falcon has a slightly altered dashing animation.
- The pose at the end of Captain Falcon's triple size kick victory screen has been altered. Instead of pointing his wrist sideways, he points it upwards, forming a pose similar to his idle pose.
Attributes
- Like all characters, Captain Falcon’s jumpsquat animation now takes three frames to complete.
Ground attacks
- The first hit of neutral attack has an altered animation, now jabbing underhanded.
- Captain Falcon's jab is noticeably slower now.
- Up tilt has a slightly different animation: His foot no longer reaches all the way to the floor, resulting in a rather circular motion.
- This makes it much harder to edgeguard opponents.
- Captain Falcon has a new forward smash: a backhand punch enveloped in fire.
Aerial attacks
- Neutral aerial's hits transition faster.
- Sweetspotted Knee Smash deals much more shield damage, being able to break a halfway depleted shield. It also has less landing lag.
Special Moves
- Like several other powerful attacks in the game, Falcon Punch displays a dramatic slow-motion effect when it successfully hits an opponent.
- Falcon Punch's flames are more pronounced and better resemble an actual falcon than in Smash 4.
- Raptor Boost now has a slightly altered animation, and seems to gain Captain Falcon super armor if the move connects.
- Falcon Dive has Captain Falcon flash with an orange tint when grabbing an opponent. It additionally has a new animation, in which he grabs his opponent with one hand while leaning more similar to Dark Dive in SSB4 onward, and the flip after grabbing an opponent now has him spin slightly.
- Falcon Dive covers more horizontal range.
- The middle hit of Falcon Kick deals more knockback.
- Falcon Dive travels higher.
- Blue Falcon now releases flames on both sides when it's on the racetrack.
