''Samus's Final Smash. The beam emerging from her Arm Cannon is dreadfully powerful and causes great damage to enemies. The beam travels slowly but can be swept up and down. The recoil of the beam is so great that it tears off her Power Suit, revealing Zero Suit Samus. The pieces of her armor can be picked up and thrown as weapons.''

{{Flag|pal}} ''In Samus's Final Smash, she unleashes a huge laser beam from her Arm Cannon that draws opponents to the centre of the beam. Quite handy, since the closer they are to the centre, the more damage they'll take! You can also angle it up and down (albeit slowly), letting you catch more of your enemies and create more havoc.''

The Zero Laser move is unique to ''Smash Bros.'', although certain games have had Samus use similarly powerful laser beams as attacks in certain situations:

* In the climax of ''[[Super Metroid]]'', the {{s|metroidwiki|Metroid Hatchling}} gives Samus the ability to use the devastating {{s|metroidwiki|Hyper Beam}} to defeat [[Mother Brain]].
* In the climax of ''[[Super Metroid]]'', the {{s|metroidwiki|Metroid Hatchling}} gives Samus the ability to use the devastating {{s|metroidwiki|Hyper Beam}} to defeat [[Mother Brain]].
* In ''Metroid Prime'' and ''Metroid Prime 3: Corruption'', when Samus enters the {{s|metroidwiki|Hypermode}} state via exposure to Phazon, she gains access to a powerful beam called "Phazon Beam"/"Hyper Beam". Unlike the Zero Laser, this attack consists of two intertwined, rapid-fire streams of Phazon rather than a single massive laser beam. As with ''Super Metroid''<nowiki>'s</nowiki> Hyper Beam, the ''Metroid Prime'' Phazon Beam is accessed temporarily during the final boss fight with [[Dark Samus|the Metroid Prime]] by standing in pools of Phazon. Additionally, rival bounty hunter {{s|metroidwiki|Gandrayda}} can use a move nearly identical to the Zero Laser when mimicking Samus's form in ''Metroid Prime 3: Corruption'', though due to the game's release date, this is likely a coincidence or a possible reference to ''Brawl'' instead.

* In the ending sequence of ''Metroid Dread'', Samus uses the {{s|metroidwiki|Hyper Beam}}, a powerful laser attack similar to the Zero Laser that annihilates everything in its path after obtaining the {{s|metroidwiki|Metroid Suit}}.
* In ''Metroid Dread'', Samus again uses the {{s|metroidwiki|Hyper Beam}}, this time appearing as a continuous large laser blast very similar to the Zero Laser. It appears near the end of the game after obtaining the {{s|metroidwiki|Metroid Suit}}. In the internal game files, the Hyper Beam is referred to as "zerolaser", suggesting that its appearance in this game was directly inspired by the Final Smash.


The ''Brawl'' functionality of the beam causing Samus's Power Suit to be lost is original to ''Brawl''. While Samus does lose her Power Suit temporarily in ''Metroid: Zero Mission'', it is lost in a crash when her starship is shot down, not in any way that involves any type of beam on her part.

*Zero Suit Samus' version of Zero Laser is one of two Final Smashes in ''Ultimate'' that involve a non-playable appearance by another playable character, along with [[Pair Up]]. However, unlike Pair Up, this is because {{SSBU|Samus}} and {{SSBU|Zero Suit Samus}} are the same individual.

** As such, it is the only Final Smash that depicts the fighter "powering up" in which the "powered-up" state is also a separate playable fighter.
*Zero Laser is one of two Final Smashes in ''Ultimate'' to share the same name as another while being mechanically different, the other being [[Critical Hit]]. Additionally, both versions of Zero Laser are used by two versions of the same person, much like [[Princess Zelda|Zelda]]'s and [[Sheik]]'s [[Light Arrow]] in ''Brawl'' and ''SSB4''; however, both variants of Light Arrow were mechanically similar.
