===Masterpieces===
The Japanese version of ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'' has {{FE1}} playable as a [[smashwiki:Masterpieces|Masterpiece]], a free time-limited trial of the game, available from the beginning.  The demo allows at least 123 seconds of gameplay in [[Marth Embarks|Chapter 1]] of the game, giving players a small taste of Marth's origins. Owing to the game's Japan-exclusive status, this Masterpiece was not included in international releases of ''Smash Bros''; it is the only Japan-exclusive Masterpiece.
==''Fire Emblem'' reveal trailers==
''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' and ''Wii U'' has a tradition of unveiling new fighters in [[smashwiki:List of Super Smash Bros. 4 character trailers|cinematic trailers]] which were released live during Nintendo Direct presentations or other similar events.  Prior to release, these trailers consisted of unique animated vignettes involving the new fighters which, after a splash screen proclaiming their entrance into the game with an amusing tagline, would go on to show the character in action in gameplay. Post-release trailers, which deal exclusively in DLC characters, do not have the opening vignettes and instead consist entirely of gameplay.
Two of these trailers have been released which are devoted to ''Fire Emblem'' characters: the first for Lucina and Robin, and the second for Roy.
===By Book, Blade and Crest of Flame===
[[File:SSB4 Trailer Lucina Robin Falcon.jpg|thumb|right|250px|Lucina and Robin confront Captain Falcon in "By Book, Blade and Crest of Flame".]]
'''[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N9ytrX0wweA By Book, Blade and Crest of Flame]''' (Japanese: {{hover|剣と魔法と炎の紋章|Tsurugi to mahō to honō no monshō}} ''Sword and Magic and the Fire Emblem'') first debuted as a live streaming event on the ''Super Smash Bros.'' website on July 14th, 2014. Revealing both Robin and Lucina as new playable characters, as well as confirming the return of ''F-Zero'' character [[fzerowiki:Captain Falcon|Captain Falcon]], it was the eighth in a series of similar trainers introducing newcomers to the series. Like its predecessors it is divided into two parts: a unique animated introduction segment introducing the two characters, followed by a demonstration of the two characters in action in actual ''Super Smash Bros.'' gameplay; the animated introduction was produced by the studio '''anima''', who were previously responsible for the cutscenes in ''Awakening''.<ref>Sakurai, Masahiro (2014). ''[https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYMHAAACAADMUKl3WtcEQg Director's Room]'' [online] Miiverse. [Accessed July 24 2014]</ref>
The trailer opens in the [[Arena Ferox]] as Lucina duels with Captain Falcon to protect her father, [[Chrom]], who is seen severely wounded presumably after being defeated by Falcon. Despite her trouble keeping up with Captain Falcon's power, Lucina resolves to keep fighting and lunges at Falcon, who deflects her blow and knocks her off balance with a kick. Before Falcon can unleash a [[smashwiki:Falcon Punch|Falcon Punch]] to finish her off, he is interrupted by a blast of [[Elwind]] from above. The blast is revealed to come from Robin, who slowly descends from above and brandishes his [[Levin Sword]] to engage Falcon in battle.
The gameplay segment mostly focuses on introducing Robin's unique playstyle and variety of [[Tome|usable tomes]], before moving onto a brief introduction of Lucina which demonstrates her status as a [[smashwiki:Clone|clone]] of Marth. The segment concludes with Lucina and Robin confronting Marth and Ike, cutting to the game's logo. After the logo, a further segment reveals that, despite his own doubts that he would ever get a chance to participate, Chrom will still appear as part of Robin's [[smashwiki:Final Smash|Final Smash]] and that a female version of Robin is also playable.
===Roy seals the deal!===
[[File:SSB4 Trailer Roy.jpg|thumb|right|250px|Roy proclaims his return to ''Super Smash Bros.'']]
'''[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w8XIj05irtU Roy seals the deal!]''' (Japanese: {{hover|ロイ参戦!!|Roi sansen!!}} ''Roy Joins the Battle!!'') debuted at the start of the "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WWM-SCjIuNg New Content Approaching!]" streaming event, which was broadcast on June 14th, 2015 in the prelude to the [[wikipedia:Electronic Entertainment Expo 2015|Electronic Entertainment Expo 2015]]. As its title suggests, it revealed [[Roy]]'s return as a downloadable character. Like the other DLC character trailers, it deals exclusively in actual gameplay footage.  Roy speaks several times in the trailer, but exclusively in Japanese as he still lacks an English voice; the English version of the trailer subtitles all of his lines.
The trailer opens with Marth, Ike, Lucina and Robin fighting against each other in a free-for-all on the Coliseum stage, which is interrupted by somebody shouting "Don't forget about me!" This, of course, is Roy, who emerges into Coliseum through a wall of fire and prepares to join the fight.  After humorously attacking [[mariowiki:Roy Koopa|Roy Koopa]], a playable character who shares his name, Roy is shown in action, highlighting his changes from and differences compared to Marth. It ends with Roy executing his [[smashwiki:Final Smash|Final Smash]], [[Critical hit|Critical Hit]], and then declaring that "For those I must protect... I cannot lose!"
===Corrin Chooses to Smash!===
''Corrin Chooses to Smash'' (Japanese: {{hover|カムイ参戦!!|Kamui sansen!!}} ''Kamui Joins the Battle!!'') debuted at the beginning of the Smash Bros. Final Presentation, on December 15th, 2015. The trailer starts similarly to [[The Path Is Yours|Chapter 6]] of {{FE14}}, with the [[Hoshido|Hoshidan]] and [[Nohr|Nohrian]] royals attempting to persuade him to join them. The options of Defend Hoshido, Fight for Nohr and Refuse to choose a side are shown, but after a few seconds a fourth option, Join the battle in Smash, is added. Corrin goes on to choose said option. They go on to fight multiple characters in the game with both of their families talking to him.-->

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate (Japanese: 大乱闘スマッシュブラザーズ SPECIAL Great Melee Smash Brothers Special) is a fighting video game for the Nintendo Switch, releasing December 7, 2018 in all regions it is being released in.

As with other games in the franchise other than the first game, it features characters from the Fire Emblem series participating in the game alongside those of other Nintendo franchises.

Characters

Smash Bros. Ultimate contains every single character from the past four games, including six Fire Emblem characters: Marth, Roy, Ike, Robin, Lucina, and Corrin; in addition to these, Chrom makes his playable debut as a clone of Roy. Lyn also returns as an assist trophy, and the Black Knight and Tiki debut as new assist trophies.

Playable cast

Only the eight starter characters from the original Super Smash Bros. will be unlocked by default, with all other characters needing to be unlocked. However, the Mii Fighters are instead available via customization, and unlocks will be much faster and easier than in previous games.

Characters making their Super Smash Bros. debut in this game are listed in bold. Characters who are officially considered "echo fighters" (a subcategory of clones) are marked with an ε. Characters who are available from the start are marked with a ‡. Characters who will be available for separate purchase through downloadable content are marked with a §, and downloadable characters who are not presently available in the games are also listed in italics. Characters who are available via customization are marked with an asterisk.

Marth returns from the previous titles. His voice in the Japanese version was redone (though keeping the same actor, Hikaru Midorikawa),[1] and his voice in other versions is now in English.[2] His design was changed somewhat to match New Mystery of the Emblem.

Lucina

Chrom is a new character. He is an "echo fighter" of Roy, though he has a unique final smash, called "Awakening Aether", in which he performs Aether, and a different up special attack, which resembles Ike's (though it isn't exactly the same).

Ike

Ike returns from the previous titles. He now has his Path of Radiance and Radiant Dawn designs as alternate costumes, with the former being the default. He has different voice clips between the two variants as well (they sound only slightly different in English, but are noticeably different in Japanese),[3][4] and he is now voiced by Greg Chun in English, replacing Jason Adkins.[5]

Stages

All three Fire Emblem stages from past Super Smash Bros. games appear: Castle Siege from Smash Bros. Brawl, Arena Ferox from Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS, and Coliseum from Smash Bros. for Wii U.

Items

One item from the Fire Emblem series appears.

Assist Trophies

Assist Trophies are non-playable characters who can be summoned temporarily into a battle using the Assist Trophy item, in order to aid their summoner. Three Fire Emblem characters are available as Assist Trophies.

Collectibles

Spirits

Replacing trophies from previous titles, Spirits are new collectibles depicting characters from a host of iconic franchises. These Spirits can be used to grant fighters extra abilities, relating to the character the Spirit depicts. The Spirits are divided into four types.

Fighter Spirits

These Spirits represent the playable fighters. They cannot be equipped for battle and are simply for the player's viewing pleasure. There are 10 for the Fire Emblem series including alts.

Primary Spirits

These Spirits are equitable spirits that will boost the user's attack and defense. They are further divided into four categories: Attack, Shield, Grab, and Neutral. There are 42 for the Fire Emblem series.

Support Spirits

These Spirits can be equipped with Primaries to boost certain aspects of the user, like allowing them to heal over time, strengthening their magic attack, or start the battle with an item like the Killing Edge. There are 25 for the Fire Emblem series.

Master Spirits

These are unique Spirits found in the World of Light campaign. Instead of equipping them, defeating them in battle will allow the player to use their facilities to buy items or train Spirits. There are two for the Fire Emblem series.

  • Anna (runs a shop)
  • Ryoma (runs the Demon Style dojo)
