The Dragonborn was released as a DLC {{SSBU|Mii Swordfighter}} costume on June 29th, 2021, alongside [[Kazuya Mishima]]. While the Dragonborn can wear a multitude of equipment in ''Skyrim'', the Mii costume is based on their equipment seen in most ''Skyrim'' promotional material: a Steel Sword, Studded Armor, and Iron Boots, Gauntlets and Helmet. Similarly, the Mii used in the costume's reveal trailer depicts the Dragonborn as a male Nord.
The Dragonborn was released as a DLC {{SSBU|Mii Swordfighter}} costume on June 29th, 2021, alongside [[Kazuya Mishima]].

Similarly, the Mii used in the costume's reveal trailer depicts the Dragonborn as a male Nord.  


In the costume's reveal trailer, the Dragonborn Mii Swordfighter is first seen in [[Kapp'n]]'s bus, in reference to the opening scene of ''Skyrim'', where the player awakes inside of a carriage on their way to be executed. The scene with the Dragonborn Mii Swordfighter fighting a giant {{SSBU|Ganondorf}} holding a [[Home-Run Bat]] is a reference to ''Skyrim''{{'}}s common Giant enemies and the clubs that they wield. The [[Ω form]] of [[Distant Planet]] is most likely a reference to the fields outside of the city of Whiterun, where the Dragonborn will likely encounter their first Giant to fight. The Dragonborn Mii Swordfighter is later seen knocking out {{SSBU|Wolf}} and {{SSBU|Yoshi}}, possibly a reference to the Khajiit and Argonian races respectively. At the end of the trailer, the Dragonborn Mii Costume is standing at the base of the Statue of the Goddess on [[Skyloft]]. This is likely a reference to the Dragonborn standing in front of a Word Wall that they may discover on their journey throughout Skyrim.

This is likely a reference to the Dragonborn standing in front of a Word Wall that they may discover on their journey throughout Skyrim. It could also be a reference to the Shrines of the Nine Divines and the various Standing Stones that, when prayed to or activated by the Dragonborn, give them a specific buff or buffs.  


Although it isn't available in-game, ''Skyrim'''s main theme, "''[https://youtu.be/6fILxnBH1Tg/ Dragonborn]''", is used in the trailer and when [[Masahiro Sakurai]] talks about Dragonborn's inclusion. Notably, the main vocals from the song are absent.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*As with other Mii Costumes based on characters from primarily M-rated franchises, the logo for ''The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim'', the game the Dragonborn hails from, is absent in the American version of his [[Mii Costume]] reveal trailer, being replaced with a wordmark featuring the character's name. Unlike previous examples, this change was also present in the UK presentation. This also applies to [[Dante]] and [[Doom Slayer]].

**Despite this, Masahiro Sakurai can be heard saying the name ''Skyrim'' when talking about the costume's inclusion, though it isn't referred to by name in the subtitles.

*The Dragonborn is the second character from Bethesda Game Studios to be released as a DLC Mii Fighter Costume in ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'', following [[Vault Boy]] from the {{uvm3|Fallout}} series. Unlike ''Fallout'', however, ''The Elder Scrolls'' was always a franchise owned by Bethesda, as opposed to being bought from Interplay.
*The Dragonborn is the only Bethesda character from a franchise that was always owned by Bethesda. {{uvm3|Fallout}} was originally owned by Interplay Entertainment before selling the IP, while id Software, the original IP holder of {{uvm3|Doom}}, was an independent company until Bethesda's acquisition of the company in 2009.
