Zelda returns as a playable character in ''Super Smash Bros. 4''. She retains her appearance from ''{{s|zeldawiki|The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess}}'', but is no longer capable of transforming into {{SSB4|Sheik}}, who has become a separate character entirely. As a result, she has a new down special move, [[Phantom Slash]]. | Zelda returns as a playable character in ''Super Smash Bros. 4''.

Despite her status as a bottom-tier character in ''Brawl'', Zelda was nerfed in ''SSB4'' due to the aforementioned removal of Transform, which was further compounded by the vast number of buffs that other characters (Sheik included) received in ''SSB4'', as well her flaws not being properly compensated. However, Zelda has received notable buffs courtesy of game updates. These included increased damage outputs, improved multi-hit connectivity, decreased ending lag and, in regards to Phantom Slash, the removal of a critical blind spot. An indirect buff Zelda received was due to the changes to shield mechanics, as her multiple hit moves and Lightning Kick have became safer on shield and enable her to avoid being punished better than before. As a result, Zelda has become slightly better than she was in ''Brawl'', yet has not improved much compared to the majority of other veterans in ''SSB4''. As such, Zelda is currently placed 55th out of 58 on the ''SSB4'' [[tier list]], in F tier. | Despite her status as a bottom-tier character in ''Brawl'', Zelda was nerfed in ''SSB4'' due to the aforementioned removal of Transform, which was further compounded by the vast number of buffs that other characters (Sheik included) received in ''SSB4'', as well her flaws not being properly compensated.
