Sephiroth is the main antagonist of Final Fantasy VII, its high-definition remake, and its related media, the Compilation of Final Fantasy VII, from Square Enix's Final Fantasy series.

Sephiroth will make his Super Smash Bros. debut in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate as a playable character via downloadable content in December 2020.

Origin

Before his fall from grace, Sephiroth was one of the most lauded success stories of the Shinra Electric Power Company's SOLDIER program. His successes in the field of battle during the conflicts surrounding Shinra's bid for global domination led to his status as a celebrity war hero and the poster boy for both the Shinra Military and the company's SOLDIER program. Learning of his true origins drove him insane, causing him to be driven by a desire to destroy the world. Being both the penultimate and final boss of Final Fantasy VII, he is often seen in spin-offs as Cloud's arch-enemy, a symbol of Cloud's past.

In Super Smash Bros. 4

Sephiroth is mentioned in the description of the Omnislash trophy.

In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

As a playable character

Sephiroth is part of the Fighters Pass Vol. 2 as Challenger Pack 8. He was revealed on December 10, 2020, during the Game Awards.

Trivia
