Roy returned to the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series in {{SSB4}} as [[smashwiki:Downloadable content|paid downloadable content]], released on June 14th 2015 alongside [[wikipedia:Ryu (Street Fighter)|Ryu]] from the [[wikipedia:Street Fighter|''Street Fighter'' series]] and [[wikibound:Lucas|Lucas]] from ''[[wikibound:Mother 3|Mother 3]]''.

Roy now sports a revised design which is primarily based on his original ''The Binding Blade'' appearance with elements of his ''Awakening'' DLC design added. Unlike [[Lucina]], his fellow clone of Marth, he has been reworked to distance himself from Marth in both aesthetics and gameplay, which now makes him a "semi-clone". In many of his attacks he now slashes with a reverse grip, altering his range, and some of his moves are completely new and different from Marth, such as his new down aerial attack. Like Marth, his range is now shorter than what he had in ''Melee'', but he compensates for this with drastic increases to his speed, allowing him to act as the close-quarters fighter he was originally intended to be. He also gains a [[smashwiki:Final Smash|Final Smash]], [[Critical hit#Super Smash Bros. series|Critical Hit]], which is radically different from Marth and Lucina's version of the move in both style and function, and imitates his critical hit animation with the Binding Blade from his native game. In competitive environments he is regarded as having been significantly improved compared to his ''Melee'' appearance, but his flaws combined with a near-total lack of representation in tournaments result in poor standings on the | Roy now sports a revised design which is primarily based on his original ''The Binding Blade'' appearance with elements of his ''Awakening'' DLC design added.

Like all playable characters in ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U'', Roy has an [[amiibo]] figurine. This amiibo can be scanned by ''Smash Bros.'' to add a trainable AI Roy into matches, which can be ported between copies of the game. | Like all playable characters in ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U'', Roy has an [[amiibo]] figurine.
