Bayonetta (ベヨネッタ, Bayonetta) is a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. She was confirmed as a playable character on June 12th, 2018. Bayonetta is once again voiced by Hellena Taylor in the English version, using recycled voice clips from Super Smash Bros. 4.

Changes from Super Smash Bros. 4

NOTE: SmashWiki is not speculative. Please refrain from adding detailed data values derived from pre-release gameplay footage, such as the E3 demo. Such data (damage values, launch trajectories, frame data, etc.) are subject to change before the official release.

Aesthetics

• As with all veterans returning from SSB4, Bayonetta's model features a more subdued color scheme.
• Love is Blue and Scarborough Fair have louder sound effects to distinguish the two.
• Bayonetta's taunts are sped up.
• When the victory screen shows her name, Bayonetta's glasses glint at the edge. While this was present in her victory poses in Smash 4, it only showed for a brief moment.

Attributes

• Like all characters, Bayonetta's jumpsquat animation now takes three frames to complete.
• Bayonetta's bullet arts can now be angled slightly upwards or downwards, depending on the move.

Throws/other attacks

• Bayonetta's hand now grabs characters using a form of umbran magic, as seen via a slightly updated animation where she swings her hand around, which is sparkling with a noticeable umbran purple.

Role in World of Light

Bayonetta was among the fighters summoned to the cliffside to fight against the army of Master Hands.

Bayonetta was present when Galeem unleashed its beams of light. Bayonetta dodged a beam of light, activating her Bat Within, but she was then vaporized immediately after she reformed her body, and transformed into a spirit alongside the rest of the fighters, excluding Kirby.

Trivia

  • Likewise, Bayonetta's official artwork based on the first game resembles her official artwork for Bayonetta, only mirrored.
