'''Umbra Clock Tower''' ({{ja|アンブラの時計塔|Anbura no Tokei-tō}}, ''Umbra Clock Tower'') is a stage from the {{uv|Bayonetta}} series. It is the final [[downloadable content]] stage in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'', released on February 3rd, 2016. The stage returns in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. In ''Ultimate'', {{SSBU|Bayonetta}} is fought here for her unlock battle.

==Stage overview==

Umbra Clock Tower is identical in layout in both {{for3ds}} and {{forwiiu}}. The battle begins and takes place on the face of the clock tower, while in an infinite free fall. The clock face itself is slightly recessed from the surface of the broken tower piece, creating a small incline. Occasionally, falling debris comes close to the main clock face [[platform]], serving as extra platforms; both hard and soft platforms can appear, creating temporary [[walk-off]]s and [[Cave of life|caves of life]]. There are seven possible layouts that appear in a random but sequential order. Similarly to [[Town and City]], the layouts themselves contain many platforms moving in different directions, then eventually leaving the stage. Unlike [[Kalos Pokémon League]] and [[Wily Castle]], and similar to [[Wii Fit Studio]], this stage forces characters to fall through soft platforms as they exit, preventing [[Star KO]]s.

*Two soft platforms, one just above the ledge on the right and another one higher the first one to the left of it

*Three soft platforms, two lower than the stage on either side and one in the middle just above

*Two soft platforms, one at the center of the main stage slightly above it and another smaller one above the other platform to it's left

*Two soft platforms to either side of the stage (both of which are walk-offs)

*Two soft platforms, one below the stage that acts as a Cave of Life and another one just below the ledge on the right side (this platform can be used to reach the former for characters with short recoveries)

*Three soft platforms, two above the ledge on either side which slant away from the stage and a third that is close to the top of the screen in the middle of the main stage (this platform can fall to the height of the other two platforms)

The soft platforms tend to move around sporadically, but generally don't move far.

 

 

===Ω forms and Battlefield form===

In ''Super Smash Bros. 4'', the [[Ω form]] is mostly identical to the normal form of the stage, but the extra debris platforms will no longer appear, and, as a result, the camera will no longer zoom and shift. The clock face is no longer slightly recessed and is completely flat. The angels still appear, including Fortitudo and its roar.

 

In ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'', the Ω form and [[Battlefield form]] are 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 are made of stone and resemble the stone debris platforms that occasionally appear in the normal form.

===Hazards Off===

With hazards turned off in ''Ultimate'', the pieces of rubble that serve as extra platforms do not appear, leaving the clock tower itself as the only platform.

As it begins crumbling, Rosa calls the tower the "''Symbol of the Umbran Way''" and begins mourning its destruction, showing that the tower itself had significant meaning to the Umbran culture and their way of life.

*The time shown on the face of the clock [[Time change|matches]] the respective game system's internal clock in real-time. If the game is [[paused]], the clock stops counting, and when un-paused, the clock instead skips ahead and resumes counting from the current time on the system.

*In {{forwiiu}}, both the Fortitudo and Inspired angels in the background are rendered as 3D models, while in {{for3ds}} they are sprites due to hardware limitations.

**The Affinities appear as sprites in both versions of the game, but animate at 60 FPS in {{forwiiu}} and 30 FPS in {{for3ds}}.

*This is the only stage in {{forwiiu}} without [[Screen KO]]s to appear in demo sequences.

*In ''Ultimate'', the following [[Assist Trophy|Assist Trophies]] cannot appear on this stage: [[Skull Kid]], [[Mother Brain]], [[Nightmare]], [[Andross]] and [[Nikki]], the latter due to the dark background obscuring her drawings. Additionally, the following [[Poké Ball]] Pokémon cannot be summoned: [[Lugia]], [[Palkia]] and [[Lunala]].

** Despite prominently featuring the moon in the background of the stage, the [[Moon]] Assist Trophy can still be summoned here.
