Diddy Kong (ディディーコング, Diddy Kong) is a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, officially confirmed on June 12th, 2018.

Changes from Super Smash Bros. 4

Aesthetics

• As with all veterans returning from SSB4, Diddy Kong's model features a more subdued color scheme. His fur is less detailed. Diddy's model and textures otherwise appear unchanged.
• Diddy Kong is more expressive. His hat also appears to be "looser" around his head, popping off slightly while performing many actions.
• Diddy Kong now faces more towards the screen.

Ground attacks

• Diddy Kong's neutral attack appears to now end with a quick side kick instead of attacking rapidly with his tail (though it is possible Diddy Kong now has something like Captain Falcon's Gentleman).

Special Moves

• Banana now disappears after tripping one time.
