The main selection menu for the mode as of Version 9.0.0, allowing players to select the Spirit Board of a specific Challenger Pack from Fighters Pass Vol. 1 & 2.

DLC Spirits is a Super Smash Bros. Ultimate mode added in update 3.0.0 where players can collect spirits based on each respective Challenger Pack, with the background and music of the menu of each DLC Spirit Board being themed after it.

Unlike the Spirit Board, Spirit Battles in this mode can be played as many times as the player wants, and if the player defeats a spirit, they get it right away instead of having to shoot it, much like in World of Light. These boards can also have multiple pages if there are more than eight spirits in a given board (excluding enhanced spirits).

In 3.0.0, the DLC Spirits button originally went straight to Persona 5's Spirit Board, but starting with update 4.0.0, the selection was changed to a menu containing the various Spirit Boards for each Challenger Pack of Fighters Pass Vol. 1 & 2, with the options for the unreleased boards being labeled as "COMING SOON". Starting 8.0.0, the menu is expanded to two columns with content from Fighters Pass Vol. 1 appearing on the left column and Vol.2 appearing on the right column. The only way to access spirits exclusive to the DLC boards without the DLC being purchased is by spending Gold on them in the Vault Shop, although their Spirit Battles can not be rematched in the Spirit List.

Completing all the Spirit Battles on a board will reward the player with 10,000 Gold.

Trivia

  • Every DLC Spirit board contains one support spirit of the Legend-class.
    • Each of these spirits contains a unique ability not featured on any other spirit in the game.
  • Persona and Dragon Quest are the only DLC Spirit Boards that contain no primary Neutral type spirits.

      • However, Geese Howard, the Spirit board's Legend-class spirit, is the last Fatal Fury spirit in order, as all other spirits after him are considered "Others" spirits.

  • Fire Emblem, ARMS and Minecraft are currently the only DLC Spirit Boards to not have any Spirit Battles featuring King Dedede as a puppet fighter.
  • The art representing the Fatal Fury Spirit Board on the DLC Spirits selection screen repurposes the fireball from Mario's SSB4 render.
