Cloud Sea of Alrest is a stage in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate based on Xenoblade Chronicles 2. It is bundled with Pyra and Mythra in Challenger Pack 9, which is also part of the Fighters Pass Vol. 2.
Stage overview
The stage takes place on top of Azurda (also known as Gramps), which is the home of Rex in Xenoblade Chronicles 2. The stage continuously floats through the skies as other titans fly by. There is a single floating platform on the left end of the stage, and Azurda's neck acts as a mild slope on the right side. Occasionally, Gramps will raise and lower his head, which will affect the angle of the slope. He will also turn his head to look at the titans, which temporarily shrinks the size of the stage. The stage contains indications for when he is about to turn his head, such as his neck shaking, a windmill spinning faster than usual, and the door to Rex's home closing. Throughout the battle, Azurda will provide banter and comment on the state of the battle.
Origin
The general aesthetic of the stage comes from the beginning of Xenoblade Chronicles 2, when Rex lives on the back of Azurda and the fly around in search of salvaging missions. The titans and other entities spotted in the background are all areas that can be explored in the game. The various background characters that appear on the stage are party members that Rex befriends and recruits throughout the game.
Trivia
- The Ω form and Battlefield form of this stage do not feature Azurda as the main platform, and instead use a haphazardly constructed airship.
- The reason given by director Masahiro Sakurai is that Azurda would be 'crushed into jelly' if they tried to make him battlefield-sized.
