Suzaku Castle (朱雀城, Suzaku Castle) is a stage in Super Smash Bros. 4 based on Ryu's stage from Street Fighter II. The stage takes place on the rooftop of the Japanese castle, and features two long walk-off platforms on the right side of the stage and two smaller platform on the left side. Signposts located on the longest platform will break if a fighter is launched past them. Once all the signs are broken, they will eventually repair.

Ω Form

As the Ω Form of the stage consists of only the main platform centered without the smaller platforms and walk-off areas, it resembles a traditional Street Fighter match. Interestingly, the signposts can be broken even on the Ω version of the stage, making it the only Ω Form stage to have interactable parts (albeit background parts that don't affect the match).

Trivia

• During the video that showed off Suzaku Castle, it stated that the music changes with 30 seconds remaining, and claimed this was a series first; this is false, as the Mushroom Kingdom stage in SSB, and the Mushroom Kingdom and Mushroom Kingdom II stages in Melee, also had distinct music that would play near the end of a time match. However, the music on Suzaku Castle also changes when one player is down to one stock in a stock battle, which is a first for the series.
• The kanji written on the destructible signs obi are "風林火山", or "fūrinkazan", a Japanese expression meaning something along the lines of "As fast as the wind, as quiet as a forest, as daring as fire, and as immovable as a mountain", in reference to The Art of War. These same kanji appear on Ryu's obi.
• The Suzaku Castle is currently the first and only downloadable stage to be purchased along with a DLC character, of which is Ryu.
