List of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate character trailers: Difference between revisions

This trailer, titled [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=82Q2XTJ8jWk The Last Key] ({{ja|最後のカギ|Saigo no Kagi}}, ''The Last Key''), begins with the opening cinematic freezing mid-way through. It then transitions into an image of the burning ''Smash'' insignia from Inkling's trailer, with [[Cloud]], [[Sephiroth]], and nearly every first-party fighter in ''Ultimate'' staring into it from below. The flames forming the insignia dissipate, and all the fighters promptly become [[trophies]]; one flame falls from the insignia as it disappears, which awakens Mario. He slowly approaches the flame before grabbing and throwing it forwards. The flames dissipate to reveal the [[List of swords#Keyblade|Kingdom Key]] within, which fires a beam of light behind the fighters to reveal a Keyhole, the light from which awakens the fighters. Sora emerges from it and happily flies around the fighters with Pixie Dust; he then lands, grabs the Keyblade, and poses, saying "Let's go!" ("{{ja|お待たせ！|Omatase!}}"; "Sorry to have kept you waiting/Thank you for waiting"). His tagline, "Sora is Finally Here!", then appears, before transitioning into a gameplay montage. The montage ends with Sora jumping back to the insignia room (with the flames relit) and shaking hands with Mario as the other fighters from the beginning of the trailer cheer behind him. The montage ends with the ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'' logo followed by "× ''Kingdom Hearts''".

[[File:Everyone is Here.png|thumb|250px|"Everyone is here!" trailer.]]Uniquely, all of the returning characters in ''Ultimate'' were revealed simultaneously in the "[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3YmIl3jA758 Everyone is here!]" (PAL)/"Challenger Approaching Intro Video" (NTSC) trailer, as well as the formal reveal of Inkling. Every character is given a number corresponding to their debut in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series. The trailer opens up with a shot of {{SSBU|Battlefield}} before showing fighter number one, Mario, emerging from a [[Warp Pipe]] before demonstrating gameplay footage of him, then moving on to {{SSBU|Samus}}; {{SSBU|Kirby}}; {{SSBU|Bowser}}; {{SSBU|Link}}; {{SSBU|Donkey Kong}}; {{SSBU|Fox}} and {{SSBU|Falco}}; {{SSBU|Marth}}; {{SSBU|Zelda}} and {{SSBU|Sheik}}, {{SSBU|Villager}}; {{SSBU|Meta Knight}} and {{SSBU|Mewtwo}}; Sonic; Peach; then Pikachu. The {{SSBU|Ice Climbers}}, who were absent from ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'', are shown on [[Summit]]; followed by the first in-game footage of {{SSBU|Inkling}}; then {{SSBU|Captain Falcon}}; {{SSBU|Zero Suit Samus}} and {{SSBU|Wii Fit Trainer}}; {{SSBU|Charizard}}, {{SSBU|Ivysaur}}, and {{SSBU|Squirtle}} returning as part of {{SSBU|Pokémon Trainer}}; {{SSBU|Ness}} and {{SSBU|Lucas}}; {{SSBU|Ryu}} and {{SSBU|Ganondorf}}; {{SSBU|Ike}}; then Cloud. {{SSBU|Snake}} appears on [[Shadow Moses Island]] and as he stands up, the text "EVERYONE IS HERE!" appears in front of him. The trailer then proceeds to show {{SSBU|Jigglypuff}} and {{SSBU|Pichu}}; {{SSBU|Roy}}; {{SSBU|Olimar}} and {{SSBU|Diddy Kong}}; {{SSBU|Lucario}}; {{SSBU|Lucina}} and {{SSBU|Robin}}; {{SSBU|Bayonetta}}; {{SSBU|Mr. Game & Watch}} and {{SSBU|Greninja}}; {{SSBU|Dr. Mario}}, {{SSBU|R.O.B.}}, and {{SSBU|Duck Hunt}}; {{SSBU|Pit}}, {{SSBU|Dark Pit}}, and {{SSBU|Palutena}}; {{SSBU|Corrin}}; {{SSBU|Bowser Jr.}}; {{SSBU|Toon Link}} and {{SSBU|Young Link}}; {{SSBU|Rosalina & Luma}} and {{SSBU|King Dedede}}; the {{SSBU|Mii Fighter}}s; {{SSBU|Wario}} and {{SSBU|Little Mac}}; {{SSBU|Pac-Man}}; {{SSBU|Shulk}}; {{SSBU|Wolf}}; and Mega Man. After showing the game's full logo for the first time, revealing its title as ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'', the trailer shows {{SSBU|Luigi}} and {{SSBU|Yoshi}} who, despite being two of the [[Original 12]], are notoriously often revealed to be in the game late in development, something that [[Masahiro Sakurai]] commented on when revealing Luigi for ''Super Smash Bros. 4''.

On March 26, 2020, [https://youtube.com/watch?v=Yi9KsF7YJZk a Nintendo Direct Mini] announced that Challenger Pack 6 would contain an ''ARMS'' character. All 15 characters of the ''ARMS'' roster as well as Biff were then shown to be possibilities, and their release date was revealed to be sometime in June 2020. These characters were: [[Spring Man]] (who is represented as an [[Assist Trophy]], Mii Costume and [[spirit]] in the base game), [[Ribbon Girl]] (who appears as a Mii Costume and spirit in the base game), Min Min, Twintelle, Ninjara (all of whom are spirits in the base game), Master Mummy, Mechanica, Byte & Barq, Kid Cobra, Helix, Max Brass, Lola Pop, Misango, Springtron and Dr. Coyle. Finally, on June 22, 2020, it was revealed that the ''ARMS'' character is [[Min Min]], likely in part due to popularity and confirmed to be influenced by the request of the ''ARMS'' producer. In her Final Smash, she is joined by Spring Man, Ribbon Girl, [[Master Mummy]], [[Mechanica]], [[Twintelle]], and [[Ninjara]]; Ninjara also appears as a Mii Fighter costume. Master Mummy, Mechanica, Byte & Barq, Kid Cobra, Helix, and Max Brass were added as spirits, while all of the game's fifteen fighters, including Lola Pop, Misango, Springtron, and Dr. Coyle, appear on advertisements in the background of [[Spring Stadium]]. However, Biff does not appear in the game in any capacity.
