Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

The upcoming Super Smash Bros. game in 2018 for the Nintendo Switch will be the fifth installment of the Super Smash Bros. series. The game is set to release sometime in 2018.

The game was announced for the Nintendo Switch at the end of the March 8, 2018 Nintendo Direct, which was introduced as a teaser with the Inklings from Splatoon having a skirmish. Their fight was later interrupted by the area darkening and the flames of the Super Smash Bros. logo lighting up. Below the logo stood some characters from previous installments of the franchise, including a close-up of Mario and another of Link from The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, as opposed to the traditional Link from The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess.
