Luigi (ルイージ, Luigi) is a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. He was revealed along with the rest of the roster on June 12th, 2018.
Changes from Super Smash Bros. 4
Aesthetics
- As with all veterans returning from SSB4, Luigi's model features a more subdued color scheme. His hair and clothing now features simple detailing, similar to Brawl.
- Like most of the returning roster, Luigi has become much more expressive than in the previous games.
- His eyes during the last pose of his up taunt are now shut, displaying terror rather than surprise.
- Luigi has a new dashing animation akin to how he runs in Luigi's Mansion.
- His attacks are much more vibrant such as a vortex forming when he performs Luigi Cyclone, spinning when Green Missile misfires, or wincing in the final part of his up taunt. Additionally, Luigi's charging animation for the Green Missile has been changed.
Attributes
- Like all characters, Luigi’s jumpsquat now takes three frames to complete.
Ground Attacks
- Luigi has a new up tilt, a short uppercut.
- Side tilt has an altered animation.
- Side tilt appears to be slightly faster.
Special Moves
- Like several other powerful attacks in the game, Luigi's Super Jump Punch sweetspot displays a dramatic slow motion effect when it successfully hits an opponent.
- Super Jump Punch has significantly decreased landing lag.
