Super Smash Bros. 4 continues to include palette swaps - players can pick a different color for their character. This time around, all characters, with the exception of Little Mac, will have eight palette swaps, instead of having up to six.[1]
Certain characters possess palette swaps with more drastic design differences than simple recolors, similar to Wario in Brawl.
Team matches, at least on the 3DS version, no longer require specific palette swaps, with team colors being indicated by colored outlines around characters instead. It is unknown how this feature will work if outlines are turned off.
All palette swaps are available in both versions of the game.
Some characters will change their names depending on the costume.
