Ike is a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. He was officially confirmed on June 12th, 2018.

Ike now has new voice clips in both versions of Ultimate. Michihiko Hagi reprises his role in the Japanese version, and Greg Chun voices Ike in English, the latter reprising his role from Fire Emblem Heroes and replacing Jason Adkins who voiced him in Brawl and SSB4.

Aesthetics

  • Change As with all veterans returning from SSB4, Ike's model features a more subdued color scheme. His clothing now features simple detailing, similar to Brawl.
  • Change Ike's appearance as a Ranger in Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance - the basis of his appearance in Brawl - is his default costume. His appearance as a Hero in Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn, which was his default design in SSB4, is now an alternate costume, and his previous costumes have been distributed among the two appearances save for the Chrom-based costume from SSB4.
  • Change The model for his Radiant Dawn appearance is largely similar to SSB4, though his muscles seem more pronounced.
  • Change Ike's voice changes depending on the costume. In the Japanese version, Ike's voice is deeper and more masculine in his Radiant Dawn costume. The difference is barely noticeable in the English version.
  • Change Ike has a new idle animation, which is more similar to his idle stance in Path of Radiance.

Attributes

  • Buff The universal 3-frame jumpsquat significantly improves Ike's ground-to-air mobility, down from frame 7.

Ground attacks

Aerial attacks

  • Buff All aerials have less landing lag.
  • Change Neutral aerial has a different animation, with Ike facing more towards the screen and no longer tucking his legs in. His entire body moves with the sword now.
  • Buff Due to the new animation, the range of the attack is heightened and it is slightly safer to use.
  • Buff Due to neutral aerial having lower ending lag, it is more effective for combos and now functions as a better landing option.
  • Nerf Forward aerial has increased ending lag and no longer autocancels in a short hop.
  • Nerf Forward aerial has noticeably reduced knockback.
  • Buff Up aerial is now a wide upward swing above Ike's head, similar to the rest of the Fire Emblem cast, but going inwards rather than outwards. Compared to his previous up aerial, it has a wider arc and faster startup.
  • Nerf Up aerial now has a shorter hitbox duration.
  • Nerf Back aerial has slightly less knockback.
  • Buff Down aerial has reduced startup lag.

Throws and other attacks

  • Change As with many other characters, Ike's pummel is faster but deals less damage.
  • Nerf Up throw no longer combos into aerials.
  • Buff Down throw now combos into aerials more easily at low percents.

Special moves

  • Buff Eruption now produces multiple flaming pillars as it charges, to a maximum of three pillars of decreasing sizes. This greatly improves its range and edgeguarding potential.
  • Change Counter now gives off flaming visuals from Ragnell after Ike performs a successful counterattack.
  • Change Great Aether is significantly flashier, with a dark blue blackdrop alongside flaming visuals. Before the final hit, the victim flashes with blue light, and the landing eruption now appears significantly more cartoony, with fewer smoke effects.

Trivia

  • In the segment in which Ike uses Great Aether from his character showcase video, there is an error in which his portrait displays him in his Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn outfit despite currently being in his Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance outfit.
  • Ike's official artwork strongly resembles the Mii Swordfighter's artwork from Super Smash Bros. 4.
