Chrom appears in {{SSB4|Lucina}} and {{SSB4|Robin}}'s trailer. In the beginning, he is shown lying on the ground after being incapacitated by {{SSB4|Captain Falcon}} in battle. Lucina defends him but is almost defeated herself. For the majority of the trailer, he is only seen laying on the ground. However, in the end, still badly hurt, he remarks that he "will get [his] chance another day;" a gameplay video immediately after this scene displays Robin’s Final Smash and states that Chrom will get it today instead, confirming his involvement as part of the Final Smash. He also appears at the top of Lucina and Robin's "New Challenger" artwork on the official website.

While he was considered to be a playable character due to the seemingly credible [[Gematsu leaks]], he is not a playable character in ''SSB4''. According to [[Masahiro Sakurai]], he did initially consider adding Chrom as a playable character after playing ''Fire Emblem Awakening'' in his spare time, but denied him in favor of Robin when he saw that Chrom would end up another swordsman made redundant by the existing fighting styles of {{SSB4|Marth}} and {{SSB4|Ike}}. Robin would allegedly remedy this by providing a plethora of unique moveset options with Tomes and the Levin Sword.<ref>http://www.gonintendo.com/s/233268-sakurai-talks-lucina-s-inclusion-in-smash-bros-wii-u-3ds-why-chrom-didn-t-make-the-cut</ref> This is referenced in Pit's [[Palutena's Guidance|Smash Taunt]] for Robin, where [[Palutena]] and [[Viridi]] deride Chrom for being a "carbon copy" of Ike, irking Chrom by saying so.<br clear=left>
