'''Suzaku Castle''' ({{ja|朱雀城|Suzaku-jō}}, ''[[wikipedia:Vermilion Bird|Suzaku]] Castle'') is a stage in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'' based on Ryu's stage from ''Street Fighter II''. The stage takes place on the rooftop of the Japanese castle, and features two long walk-off platforms on the right side of the stage and two smaller platform on the left side. Signposts located on the longest platform will break if a fighter is launched past them. Once all the signs are broken, they will eventually repair.

Suzaku Castle (朱雀城, Suzaku Castle) is a stage in Super Smash Bros. 4.

Layout

The stage takes place on the rooftop of the Japanese castle, at sunset. It features two long walk-off platforms on the right side and two smaller platform on the left side. Signposts located on the longest platform will break if a fighter is launched past them. Once all the signs are broken, they will eventually repair.

Ω Form

As the Ω Form of the stage consists of only the main platform centered without the smaller platforms and walk-off areas, it resembles a traditional Street Fighter match. The signposts can be broken even on this version of the stage, making it the only Ω Form stage to have interactable parts (albeit background parts that don't affect the match).

Origin

Suzaku Castle (Japan Stage) as it originally appeared in Super Street Fighter II.

In Street Fighter II, Suzaku Castle (Japan) is Ryu's stage. Like all Street Fighter stages it is a simple flat surface with no hazards. The twilight setting and breakable signs in the Smash stage are inspired by the version of this stage which appears in the SNES version of the game.

Trivia

  • On this stage, if the current song playing is Ryu Stage Type A or B or Ken Stage Type A or B and the timer reaches 30 seconds in a timed match, or the last opponent has one stock left in a stock match, or when the last opponent's HP is under 100 in a stamina match, or during Sudden Death, a sped-up version of the respective song will play. This references Street Fighter II, where the stage music speeds up when a fighter loses half of their health.
    • During the video that showed off Suzaku Castle, it stated that the music changing was a series first; this is false, as the Mushroom Kingdom stage in SSB, and the Mushroom Kingdom and Mushroom Kingdom II stages in Melee, also had distinct music that would play near the end of a time match. However, the music on Suzaku Castle also changes when one player is down to one stock in a stock battle, which is a first for the series.
  • The kanji written on the destructible signs are "風林火山", or "fūrinkazan", a Japanese expression meaning something along the lines of "As fast as the wind, as quiet as a forest, as daring as fire, and as immovable as a mountain", in reference to The Art of War. These same kanji appear on Ryu's obi.
  • Suzaku Castle is the first and so far only downloadable stage bundled with a DLC character.
