On February 14, 2015, multiple pictures taken of Ubisoft's Rayman supposedly in ''SSB4'' were posted onto 4chan by an anonymous user. The images were of Rayman's CSS icon, his render, his character unlock splash art, and the main menu of ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'' with a new sub menu for a shop. Several hours later, video footage of Rayman's icon in the CSS being highlighted was posted onto YouTube, but it was later taken down by the uploader. Mewtwo can also be seen above Rayman on the CSS. Many people were led into believing it since the images and the video were seemingly error free, were of reasonably high quality, and had renders not seen in any official material. A similarly-updated CSS from the 3DS version also surfaced. This rumor also lined up with another [[#Rayman "leak"|rumor]] with similar information.

It was later deconfirmed the next day in a [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IaoB7lnOiXM YouTube video showing the fabrication] by the user Artsy Omni who revealed that he did it as a promotional stunt for his new series "Smashified". Artsy Omni was also the author of another [http://hextupleyoodot.deviantart.com/art/Klonoa-for-Smash-459604523 high quality fake] of [http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/633202-super-smash-bros-for-wii-u/69400428 Klonoa being a playable character] which was quickly debunked because of errors in the Japanese texts. He would later apologize for leaks and as a result continued his series featuring various other fan-favourite characters.

A DLC shop for the game, however, was added in a future update, albeit in an entirely different spot.
