Yggdrasil's Altar (天空の祭壇, Altar of the Skies) is a downloadable stage in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. It is bundled with Hero as part of Challenger Pack 2 released July 30th, 2019.
Description
At the start of a match, the stage is rooted to the ground, before rising into the air. The stage then travels over the world of Erdrea, showcasing many locations from Dragon Quest XI. The stage features many cameos from the Dragon Quest series, including Slimes, Spirits of Lost Time, and Cetacea. Very rarely, a Metal Slime will appear in the background of the stage. The stage also features additional platforms that fly onto the playing field periodically. Treasure Chests may occupy one of these platforms, yielding an item to the player who attacks it. However, these chests may also be Mimics in disguise. Defeating the Mimic will also yield an item.
Origin
Yggdrasil, the world tree of Norse legend, is a recurring location in the Dragon Quest series, first introduced in Dragon Quest II. It is a giant, mythical tree that can only be found in isolated and dangerous locations, in order to prevent the general populace from approaching it. Two of the most potent healing items in the series, the Yggdrasil Leaf and Yggdrasil dew, contain the essence of the tree. It plays important roles in both Dragon Quest IV and Dragon Quest IX, where it appears as a late-game location in the former, and is part of the plot in the latter. While the location has appeared in multiple Dragon Quest titles, Yggdrasil's design and the Altar itself are both derived from Dragon Quest XI.
