List of unlockables (SSBU)
The following contains a list of unlockables a player can obtain in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.
Characters
The starter characters are the same as in Super Smash Bros.: Mario, Donkey Kong, Link, Samus, Yoshi, Kirby, Fox, and Pikachu. Most other characters can be unlocked by playing Versus Mode matches, clearing Classic Mode with a specific character, or awakening them in Adventure Mode: World of Light.
Mii Fighters
Each of the three types of Mii Fighter can be unlocked by simply creating one in the Games & More menu, or by awakening the Mii Fighter of that type in Adventure Mode: World of Light, which is based on the type's default Mii.
DLC
Players who purchased the game in the eShop or registered a physical copy with My Nintendo before January 31st, 2019 received a free download code for Piranha Plant. After this date, it became available for purchase. The pricing is $5 USD.
Joker, Hero, Banjo & Kazooie, Terry, and Byleth are available as a bundle through the Fighters Pass Vol. 1. A second Fighters Pass consisting of Min Min, Steve, Sephiroth, Pyra/Mythra, Kazuya and Sora is available to purchase as well. All DLC fighters are also available to purchase individually.
