Villager (むらびと, Villager) is a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, officially confirmed on June 12th, 2018.

Changes from Super Smash Bros. 4

  NOTE: SmashWiki is not speculative. Please refrain from adding detailed data values derived from pre-release gameplay footage, such as the E3 demo. Such data (damage values, launch trajectories, frame data, etc.) are subject to change before the official release.

Aesthetics

  •   As with all veterans returning from SSB4, Villager's model features a more subdued color scheme. His clothing features subtle detailing.
    •   The 7th Villager skin has red eyes instead of brown.
  •   Clothing such as Villager's shorts have more movement while fighting.
  •   Villager now faces more towards the screen like many other characters. Several animations, particularly those relating to walking and dashing, have been altered as a result.
  •   Villager's bowling ball from his forward smash now lingers a bit on the ground.
  •   Players can now see what's inside the Villager's Pocket on the character HUD.

Attributes

  •   Like all characters, Villager's jumpsquat animation now only takes three frames to complete.

Ground attacks

  •   Villager now has a neutral infinite and a finisher, a straight jab.

Aerial attacks

Throws/other moves

  •   Villager now has a shocked expression when he misses with his grab.
  •   Villager can now Pocket items using his net.
  •   Villager's edge attack covers more range.

Special Moves

  •   After catching a projectile with Pocket, Villager can act faster.
  •   Timber can now bounce of the ground once, and also does more damage.
  •   Dream Home now has the house rotate while Tom Nook, Timmy and Tommy build it.

Alternate costumes

Trivia

  • Villager is the only SSB4 newcomer to appear on the game's boxart.
  • In the E3 demo of the game, Villager's portrait, strangely, used his in-game model as opposed to the render made for him in the game, which has since been fixed. This was also the case with Mario and Pikachu.
