'''Suzaku Castle''' ({{ja|朱雀城|Suzaku-jō}}, ''[[wikipedia:Vermilion Bird|Suzaku]] Castle'') is a stage in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'', available as [[downloadable content]] in a pack with {{SSB4|Ryu}}. The stage returns in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''.

In ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'', the Ω form and [[Battlefield form]] are very similar to the Ω form in ''SSB4''; however, the main platform is resized and reshaped to match {{SSBU|Final Destination}} and {{SSBU|Battlefield}}, respectively. The three [[soft platform]]s of the Battlefield form resemble the platform on the bottom left of the normal form.

In ''Street Fighter II'', Suzaku Castle (Japan) is Ryu's stage. Like all ''Street Fighter'' stages it is a simple flat surface with no hazards. The twilight setting and breakable signs in the ''Smash'' stage are inspired by the version of this stage which appears in the SNES version of the game.<ref>[https://youtu.be/tRMerBq4Hro?t=6m50s A battle on the original stage in ''Street Fighter II''.]</ref>

This stage is banned from tournaments (except the Ω form) due to containing walk-off blast lines, and that the stage layout forces most of the gameplay to take place on the right hand side of the stage.

*On this stage, if the current music playing is {{SSB4MusicLink|Street Fighter|Ryu Stage Type A}}/[[List of SSB4 Music (Street Fighter series)#Ryu Stage Type B|B]] or {{SSB4MusicLink|Street Fighter|Ken Stage Type A}}/[[List of SSB4 Music (Street Fighter series)#Ken Stage Type B|B]] and either the [[Match timer|timer]] has reached 30 seconds in a [[Time|timed match]]; the last opponent has one stock left in a [[Stock|stock match]]; the last opponent's HP is under 100 in a [[Stamina Mode|stamina match]]; or during [[Sudden Death]], a sped-up version of the respective song will play. This references ''{{s|wikipedia|Street Fighter II}}'', where the stage music speeds up when a fighter loses half of their health.

**This also applies to the stage themes of E. Honda, Chun-Li, Blanka, Zangief, Guile, Dhalsim, Balrog, Sagat, Vega, M. Bison, Dee Jay, T. Hawk, Fei Long, and Cammy in ''Ultimate'' with both types.

*Suzaku Castle is one of six stages in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series to be featured as a stage in other fighting games, with the others being the [[Pyrosphere]], [[Green Hill Zone]], [[Fountain of Dreams]], [[Midgar]], and [[Dracula's Castle]]. Of these, Suzaku Castle is the only one originating from a fighting game.

*Despite being a ''Street Fighter'' stage, neither Ryu nor Ken are fought on this stage for their unlocking battles in ''Ultimate''. Ryu is fought on {{SSBU|Battlefield}} and Ken is fought on [[Boxing Ring]].
