During the [[Final Video Presentation]] on December 15, 2015, it was revealed that {{SSB4|Bayonetta}} officially won the ballot. She was the #1 choice in Europe and in the top 5 in North America. She was also the #1 choice among "realizable and negotiable" characters, which was the real deciding factor. Bayonetta was released as the final ''Smash 4'' DLC fighter on February 3, 2016. The game was later datamined in June, 2018, and the dataminers discovered evidence that parameters for Bayonetta were added to the game as early as version 1.0.6 on April 15, 2015, only two weeks after the ballot went live, despite not actually releasing until nearly ten months later with version 1.1.5.<ref>[https://sourcegaming.info/2018/07/03/bayo106/ Bayonetta datamine]</ref> This information suggests that Bayonetta might have already been decided as a character before the ballot ended. | During the [[Final Video Presentation]] on December 15, 2015, it was revealed that {{SSB4|Bayonetta}} officially won the ballot.
