Sonic appears as an unlockable character in ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'', with his return being confirmed during Nintendo's E3 2018 presentation on June 12.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L93H7YC-83o Super Smash Bros. Ultimate - E3 2018 - Nintendo Switch]</ref> Due to being the first character in {{SSBU|Mario}}'s [[Classic Mode (SSBU)|Classic Mode]] character unlock tree, Sonic can potentially be the first character unlocked in the game.

Sonic was slightly nerfed in the transition from ''Smash 4'', with the changes he received demanding a more aggressive playstyle. Most notably, Spin Dash can no longer be shield-canceled nor cross up shields, greatly reducing its neutral and camping utility. Up air also links less reliably, limiting its use as a KO confirm. However, Homing Attack is faster and more controllable, giving it greater combo potential and neutral utility, and most of his standard attacks are either stronger or more effective at starting combos. He also benefits the most of any character from the addition of [[run cancel]]ing due to his unrivaled running speed, and directional air dodging allows Sonic to extend his recovery after Spring Jump.
