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, Peach's model features a more subdued color scheme. Her hair and gloves now feature simple detailing, similar to Brawl. Her dress retains its design from the previous iteration, but now features a glossy satin texture.
• Like other fighters, Peach is much more expressive, now having facial expressions for many more attacks.
• Peach's dress now has independent physics.
• Peach always faces the screen regardless of which direction she turns. As a result, her stance, moveset, and animations are now mirrored.
• Peach's down taunt now has a heart pop up next to her head. She also no longer spins, and winks immediately.
• Peach's side taunt has been shortened, she now only dances back and forth instead of the 3 step dance, though the music notes still appear.

Attributes

• Like all characters, Peach’s jumpsquat animation now takes three frames to complete.
• Peach jumps slightly higher.
• Peach runs slightly faster.

Ground Attacks

• Peach's down tilt has been changed from a sweep with her hand to a sweep kick.
• Down tilt covers more range, and comes out significantly faster.
• Dash attack does more damage and knockback and KOs more easily.
• Forward smash has gone back to a random order between a tennis racket, golf club, and frying pan. This prevents her from preparing whichever weapon the player may want to use.
• Forward smash has less endlag.
• Up smash now has a heart at the end of the ribbon. The heart has a hitbox that extends the range of the attack and has less endlag.
• Down smash covers more range and has less endlag.

Aerial attacks

• Forward aerial is now a magic attack and has slightly more range does more damage and knockback, and has less landing lag.

Throws/other attacks

• Toad now appears when Peach grabs an opponent to attack alongside her when she uses her pummel and throws. It is currently unknown if Toad affects the properties of her pummel and throws.

Special Moves

• Toad's counterattack now has Toad immediately appear on the ground next to Peach, bodyguarding her, instead of Peach using him as a shield. The move's startup lag was also significantly reduced.
• Peach Bomber does more damage and has less startup and endlag.
• Turnips now bounce off the ground once instead of disappearing immediately.
• Despite footstools now being techable, Peach’s turnips can still lock.
• Peach Parasol has less landing lag.
