EVO 2015 allowed [[character customization|custom special moves]] in ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'' by utilizing the [[Official Custom Moveset Project]], while several of the game's [[DLC]] characters, {{SSB4|Lucas}}, {{SSB4|Roy}}, and {{SSB4|Ryu}}, were not allowed due to how soon before the tournament they became available<ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/EvilMrWizard/status/610484724033662976 |title=Why Roy, Ryu and Lucas are banned at EVO 2015  |publisher=Joey "MrWizard" Cuellar, EVO 2015's tournament director |accessdate=2015-06-22}}</ref>.

==Official game lineup==
The official game lineup for EVO 2015 was announced on January 20th, by Joey Cuellar, during a live stream on Twitch.tv, with Mike Ross as host. Notably for this year's edition was the inclusion of two ''Smash'' games on the official lineup, for the first time, with the return of ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' alongside {{forwiiu}}. The decision to include both games was made after continued interest in Melee was noted by the staff, following the release of  {{forwiiu}}, with the record breaking numbers for [[Apex 2015]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kjiscOndons&feature=youtu.be&t=35m51s |title=Evolution 2015 Games Reveal |publisher=Twitch |accessdate=2015-06-23}}</ref>
