Kirby (SSBU)

Kirby (カービィ, Kirby) is a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. He was confirmed on June 12th, 2018.

Changes from Super Smash Bros. 4

Aesthetics

  • Change Stone has been given some new items to transform into, some of them outside of the Kirby series, such as a treasure chest found in Breath of the Wild's shrines.
  • Change Like many other characters, Kirby is more expressive.
  • Change When Kirby gains a new Copy Ability, he briefly poses like he does in his home series. This animation can be canceled.
    • Change Likewise, he has a pose for removing a copy ability.
  • Change Kirby's cap for Zelda has been changed from her wimple she wore in Ocarina of Time to a hairstyle matching her new A Link Between Worlds-inspired look.

Standard attacks

  • Buff Kirby's dash attack has reverted to its Melee iteration, where Kirby does a tackle identical to the "Burning" copy ability. It no longer goes off of ledges and is stronger than his previous dash attack.
  • Buff Forward smash sends Kirby further, improving its range.
  • Buff Down smash has increased range.

Special moves

  • Buff Stone has a faster startup.
  • Buff Hammer KOs even earlier when fully charged.
