Changes from Super Smash Bros. 4

Aesthetics
As with all veterans returning from SSB4, Captain Falcon's model features a more subdued color scheme. The top piece of his racing suit appears to be armor with visible scuffs. His eyes are larger, akin to Brawl.- Captain Falcon has a slightly altered dashing animation.
- The palette swap based on Blood Falcon now reads "Hell Hawk" on the logo on his back, which is the name of his Japanese vehicle. In previous games, it used the translated name Blood Hawk.
Attributes
Like all characters, Captain Falcon’s jumpsquat animation now takes three frames to complete.
Ground attacks
- Captain Falcon has a new forward smash: a backhand punch enveloped in fire.
Aerial attacks
- Neutral aerial's hits transition faster.
Special Moves
- Like several other powerful attacks in the game, Falcon Punch displays a dramatic slow motion effect when it successfully hits an opponent.
- Falcon Punch's falcon flames seem bigger than in previous games, somewhat akin to the Mighty Falcon Punch in Smash 4.
- Raptor Boost now has a slightly altered animation, and seems to gain Captain Falcon super armor if the move connects, somewhat akin to the Heavy Raptor Boost in Smash 4.
- Falcon Dive has Captain Falcon flash with an orange tint when grabbing an opponent. It additionally has a new animation, in which he grabs his opponent with one hand while leaning more, and the flip after grabbing an opponent now has him spin slightly.
