In ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'', Mr Game. & Watch's appearance now matches his appearance from "Oil Panic" when using the move, with the move having updated animations. Outside of aesthetic changes, Oil Panic has seen some improvements mainly to an unfilled bucket. The move can start absorbing projectiles 1 frame sooner and it does not need to be held out for as long before it can be cancelled, making it less risky to use. Additionally, the move now functions like other moves with loop properties, as letting go of the special button will now immediately end the move, rather than the player having to wait for Mr. Game & Watch to finish the looping animation. The move now also immediately ends after absorbing a projectile, rather than going back into the looping animation, making it safer to absorb projectiles, particularly while offstage.

Another useful buff the move received is that the move now acts as a [[reflector]] against non absorbable projectiles. The reflector is small, weak, and only works when facing the projectile although it does give the move some extra utility in certain matchups, making it more useful.
