Announced at E3 2001, ReDeads are enemies that are found in the Underground Maze stage in Super Smash Bros. Melee's Adventure Mode.
They also appear as stickers in Super Smash Bros. Brawl.
Character description
The ReDeads in Melee take the appearance of zombies or undeads, and are based on the Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask version of the ReDead. They come in two different colors:
- Light brown, which are only found in the Underground Maze.
- Dark brown, that appear out of container items.
Despite their structure, ReDeads can still attack any character, independent of size.
Role in Super Smash Bros. games
ReDeads appear "freely" in the Underground Maze, and come out of crates and barrels in a regular battle in Melee. They attack other characters by limping towards them. Once the ReDead identifies its victim, it will charge at it, latch on, and bite it. The amount of damage the ReDead deals depends on the difficulty. The higher the difficulty, the more damage it deals. Mashing the controller buttons shakes the creature off, stopping its damaging process. After a few attacks, the ReDead will fall down on the ground, and will remain so for some seconds. Now is the time for the player to deliver a final blow to destroy it.
The ones in the Underground Maze are usually found in the main area with the broken, floating platforms. Usually, there are about 1-2 ReDeads per platform. These usually fall down when attacked, or sometimes, on their own. In other areas, especially in the tunnels connecting the map, they can be found in groups of 3-4. ReDeads will sometimes leave a trophy behind when they are KO'ed.
The ReDeads that come out of container items are harder to spot, because they are darker than the regular ones. They are one of the four common enemies that can appear on any stage. For every ReDead the player KOs, they will get 800 points added to their total score.
Trophy
ReDead Seven years after Ganondorf took control of Hyrule, ReDeads roamed the ruins of castle town, moaning. Link was shocked at the state of the town, and the apparent lack of survivors. He later learned that the townsfolks had evacuated to safety, and the ReDeads were magic animated into hideous humanoid shapes.
