This is the first time in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series where Marth is not solely voiced in Japanese. In international releases, Marth is voiced in English by {{s|wikipedia|Yuri Lowenthal}}, who reprises his role from {{uvm|Code Name: S.T.E.A.M.}} onwards. {{s|wikipedia|Hikaru Midorikawa}} reprises his role in the Japanese version, with newly recorded voice clips for the first time since ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''.<ref name="nindsp">Nintendo Dream (February 2019) interview ([https://nintendoeverything.com/sakurai-on-smash-bros-ultimate-his-health-choosing-bosses-and-spirits-new-stages-much-more/ translation])</ref> | This is the first time in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series where Marth is not solely voiced in Japanese.

Marth is ranked | Marth is ranked 55th out of 82 on the current [[tier list]], placing him in the C+ tier. This is a large drop from his placement of 11th/12th out of 54 in ''SSB4'' where he was tied with {{SSB4|Ryu}}, and is his worst placement in the series to date. This is also a significant drop compared to his [[Echo Fighter]], {{SSBU|Lucina}}, who is currently ranked 22nd out of 82 and is placed in the A+ tier. This drastic difference in tier placement is due to Marth's reliance on landing tipper hits to get KOs. This combined with ''Ultimate''{{'}}s faster engine and removal of certain microspacing techniques (such as [[perfect pivoting]]) makes it more inconsistent at landing those sweetspots and netting KOs, while his sourspots, though effective for setting up combos and tech-chases, struggle to take stocks even at high percentages. Lucina's attacks, on the other hand, deal the same amount of damage and knockback regardless of where on her sword the attack lands, giving her more consistent KO capabilities. | ||
