''Ultimate'' introduces a new animation for Star KOs; the characters now tumble away from the screen, similar to [[Screen KO]]s in the first three games, and seemingly go a much further distance away from the stage (though this is an illusion, since the characters actually start shrinking the further they fly away, as easily seen in the [[King of Fighters Stadium]]). Most characters also now use a sideways version of their tumbling animations, with the exceptions of {{SSBU|Cloud}}, {{SSBU|Corrin}}, {{SSBU|Incineroar}}, {{SSBU|Inkling}}, {{SSBU|Shulk}}, {{SSBU|Joker}} and {{SSBU|Min Min}}, who spin forwards like their normal tumbling animation, and by extension, similarly to the previous games, alongside {{SSBU|Mr. Game & Watch}} (due to his 2D nature). The star is also now a purple color. Additionally, the [[Boss Galaga]] will always cause a Star KO and cause the character to go into their normal Star KO animation seen in the previous games. The physics of Star KOs are otherwise unchanged from ''Smash 4''.

{{SSBU|Isabelle}} and {{SSBU|Piranha Plant}} also remain silent when Star KO'd, in addition to all previous veterans that were silent during their Star KO. For the first time in the series, there are characters who speak a complete sentence during Star KO; {{SSBU|Pit}} has a unique Star KO line, where he yells "I never learned how to read...!". This is a reference to Chapter 17 in ''Kid Icarus: Uprising'', where he yells the same line after his Power of Flight is cut en-route to the Aurum Fortress [https://www.twitter.com/theSirToasty/status/1006943013640261632]. {{SSBU|Byleth}} speaks during a Star KO, shouting "My battle ends here...!", a reference to one of their defeat lines from ''Fire Emblem: Three Houses''. Both characters also do not speak in the Japanese version. In addition to all previous cases retained from ''Brawl'' and ''Smash 4'', {{SSBU|Daisy}}'s Star KO also has her shouting "No!", as she do when falling off of race track/a platform in ''Mario Kart Wii'' and ''Mario Party 9''. Min Min has similarly her shouting "{{ja|哎呀!|Āi yā!}}" (''Oh no!''). {{SSBU|Mr. Game & Watch}} now uses the same beep used for his up and side taunts, while {{SSBU|Dark Samus}} reuses {{SSBU|Samus}}' Star KO sound. {{SSBU|Roy}}'s English Star KO voice clip, much like Zelda in ''Melee'', is infamous for being overdone and horrifying, to the point that his voice actor, {{s|wikipedia|Ray Chase}}, [https://www.twitter.com/RayChase/status/1093679605796397056 acknowledging this influence on Twitter].
