(I expect a bit of pushback for this, but I think it's better for this page not to have a "latest installments" section for each universe. Not only does it save a ton of bytes, but the significantly less finite nature of this page compared to its inspiration pages makes it incredibly difficult to track the latest games for each and every one of these universes.)

An icon used in notice templates. READ THIS FIRST
Although this sandbox is not marked as a draft, it is free for anyone to edit.
Before making any contributions here, however, I suggest you read this ruleset first.

With how many third-party universes that are being included in the Smash series recently, whether they get playable fighters or not, I decided to make a safe-haven for potential third-party candidates which anyone can include, provided they follow the ruleset.

Do note that this page is only for the major third-party companies in Smash (i.e. the ones that have playable fighters). For universes owned by companies that don't have any of their IPs represented with a fighter, refer to here.

All universes on this page were added by me unless stated otherwise. Universes that were added by other users are to be marked with <big>'''Added by *insert username here*'''</big>, which should go below the universe's title header and above its infobox.
