Aesthetics

  • Change Dark Pit retains his Kid Icarus: Uprising appearance. His clothing and wings now feature simple detailing, and like Pit, his eyes and hair appear more detailed.
  • Change Dark Pit's idle animation has been slightly altered.
  • Change Dark Pit's down and side taunts are performed faster.

Attributes

  • Buff Like all characters, Dark Pit's jumpsquat animation now takes three frames to complete.

Special Moves

  • Buff Guardian Orbitars comes out faster when activated.
  • Change Guardian Orbitars will shrink when attacked.
  • Buff Dark Pit can act out of Electroshock Arm faster if it connects.
  • Change He always shouts "Electroshock!" when using Electroshock Arm. His other voice clip is used when he activates the Power of Flight.

Role in World of Light

Dark Pit was among the fighters that were summoned to fight the army of Master Hands.

Dark Pit was present when Galeem unleashed its beams of light. He was flying alongside Pit to escape the beams, but after Palutena was vaporized, they lost their Power of Flight and fell victim to the beams as well. They were both transformed into spirits along with the rest of the fighters, excluding Kirby.

Trivia

  • Dark Pit and Lucina are the first and only full clones to retain their full clone status in two games in a row.
  • In the World of Light trailer, Dark Pit is seen losing his Power of Flight with the loss of Palutena, and his wings glow blue during use. This is unlike the ingame move, where his wings use a green glow, which occurs when the ability is granted by Viridi.
