Samus is a heavy fighter who is unusually floaty, a characteristic defying those of her weight class. She utilizes a unique array of powerful projectiles in her arsenal, including [[Charge Shot]] beams, [[missile]]s, and [[bomb]]s. Additionally, new to Samus's ''Project M'' iteration, using her side taunt allows her to switch between either fire and ice elements (with the former being default). This mechanic changes the elements of her forward smash, forward air, up smash, down tilt, and missiles (unusually, it does not change the element for her bombs), which allows Samus to utilize a new set of skills that players are able to use in strategic methods. | Samus is a heavy fighter who is unusually floaty, a characteristic defying those of her weight class.

Super Missiles travel straight forward instead of homing in the opponent, and are faster and stronger than homing missiles. Super Ice Missiles have a shorter range than its plasma counterpart. Homing Ice Missiles do not explode after a certain distance, they keep on going until they either hit their target, terrain, or go offscreen. | ||

In ''Project+'', Samus is one of few characters to receive a new character model, with said model now incorporating elements from ''Metroid Prime'' series and ''Metroid: Samus Returns''. It received a new blue recolor to replace the one previously inspired by [[Dark Samus]], and an alternate costume inspired by the Phazon Suit from ''Metroid Prime.'' | |||
Samus' alternate costumes from ''Project M'' were significantly revamped to match the proportions of her new design. In addition, the previously unused PED Suit in ''Project M'' is included as an alternate costume, sharing the same touch ups as her other costumes. The Fusion Suit and the Classic Suit received recolors for team battles, with the recolors for the Classic Suit inspired by the various suit upgrades in ''Metroid Fusion.'' | |||
