The X Bomb (十文字爆弾, Cross Bomb) is an item set to appear in Super Smash Bros. 4. It will be an item that releases a cross-shaped explosion on detonation, either aligned diagonally or orthogonally. It can detonate after it is thrown or struck.
Origin
The origin of the X Bomb is muddled. In terms of the bomb's design, it originates from Kid Icarus: Uprising, where it was an item that Pit could throw at opponents, which then fires four balls of energy in a cross pattern that proceed to bounce around. However, the item's apparent behaviour in SSB4 is to deal instant damage along two lines; this behaviour instead originates from the Meteos series (which predates Uprising), where the X Bomb would destroy all Meteos diagonal to itself upon detonation. Despite this, the Miiverse post that revealed the item specifically says the X Bomb is not from Meteos.
It's worth noting that the X Bomb from Kid Icarus: Uprising is called a "Cross Bomb" in Japan, which in Meteos is a different item altogether that destroys all Meteos in its row and column. The X Bomb in SSB4 exhibits this behaviour simply by rotating differently.
