Zero Suit Samus leaps to her Gunship and, donning her Power Suit, takes aim using a targeting reticle. Once fired, the laser hits consecutively and deals major damage. It finishes with one last energy blast that launches opponents.
—Description from Ultimate's Move List

Zero Laser is Zero Suit Samus's Final Smash in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. It is a variation of the Zero Laser used by her suited self.

Overview

Zero Suit Samus rises into the air, then appears in the background atop her Gunship, wearing her Power Suit. A player-controlled crosshair then appears, and when the attack button is pressed, the now-suited Samus begins firing her Zero Laser with an area roughly equal to that of the crosshair. Like the Zero Laser used by the playable suited Samus, it hits multiple times and builds up damage. At the end of the move, there is a brief pause, then one final burst is fired with enough power to launch opponents. Once the move concludes, Samus reverts to her Zero Suit; unlike with Power Suit Samus in Brawl, she does not retain her Power Suit for gameplay after use.

Trivia

  • This is one of two Final Smashes in Ultimate that involve a non-playable appearance by another playable character, along with Pair Up. However, unlike Pair Up, this is because Samus and Zero Suit Samus are the same individual.
  • Zero Laser is one of two Final Smashes in Ultimate to share the same name as another, mechanically different Final Smash, the other being Critical Hit. Additionally, both versions of Zero Laser are used by two versions of the same person, much like Zelda's and Sheik's Light Arrow in Brawl and SSB4; however, both variants of Light Arrow were mechanically similar.
