Luigi (SSB4)

Luigi (ルイージ, Ruīji) will be a playable character in Super Smash Bros. 4. He was announced during the Nintendo Direct on August 7, 2013, as part of Nintendo's "Year of Luigi". It is unknown if he will be unlockable as with previous installments. His official artwork is based on his side taunt, thus making him the first character in Smash history to have artwork based off of a taunt. This also marks the first time where any character has such artwork. No changes to Luigi's moveset from Super Smash Bros. Brawl have currently been seen.

    • All taunts, including down taunt spike.
  • Luigi has a new jumping animation where he pedals his legs, a reference to the scuttle ability he has in some games.
