Super Smash Bros. XZ is a platform-fighting game made by Hyper Kaito for Nintendo Switch, PC, HKConnect and The Next Nintendo Console. It was released on November 6th 2025 for Switch and PC, and December 18th 2025 for the rest.
==Development==
Development started after Super Smash Bros. Ultimate released its final character (Sora), in 2021-2022. Masahiro Sakurai was pretty much exhausted after he finished Ultimate, so he temporarily passed the torch to Hyper Kaito to develop a new game of the franchise, so he could publish a new Smash game on time and rest after his burnout. With the developer changed, the new game was changed. The game still had a lot of things from Ultimate and previous titles, but the roster was changed, the Classic mode was slightly changed, the Adventure mode was changed, and a lot more things were changed. As Hyper Kaito said on the Smash Bros. website: I will change a lot of things for the next game to make this one better than the last one (Ultimate) and make the wait totally worth it for long-time and new fans. Some modes from previous games (like Master/Crazy Orders from SSB4) will return and some current modes are being overhauled. This will be the best Super Smash Bros. game yet, period. The game was presented in E3 2024, revealing its name, all characters from Ultimate returning, a presentation of a newcomer and the release date.
==Modes==
===Smash===
====Versus====
One of the staple features of Smash Bros.. You can battle up to 7 players (not including you, so it's 8 in total) in a stock/timed battle with or without items. With the items, make good strategies with them and defeat your foes. Without the items, make use of your arsenal of attacks and show everyone that you're the king of Smash. With the Stage Change mode, battle your enemies in a changing stage. With Stage Hazards, use them wisely to show everyone who's boss.
==== Squad Strike ====
Up to 4 players can strike each other as 3 or 5 characters at the same time. Your characters are your stocks, so use your characters wisely to end the game for the other players.
==== Smashdown ====
Battle up to 8 people total in a fight that only ends when there's no available characters for everyone or 20 battles are over. Every character already used gets eliminated and can no longer be used.
==== Tourney ====
Fight all your way to victory in a 16/32/64-player tournament. As the first game of the series that's multi-platform, there's cross-play.
==== Special Smash ====
Same as the Versus mode, but now you can modify the characters' size, headwear, bodywear, status, weight, speed, knockback, camera settings, etc.
=== Solo ===
==== Classic ====
In process...
