## Changes from Smash 4

Super Smash Bros. Universe has undergone many changes from the previous installment. Many of these changes are purely aesthetic, while the other changes actually affect gameplay and affect many characters.

* The game's overall speed and attacks have been sped up once again to reflect *Melee's* fast-paced style. This was changed due to intense fan demand.
* A scrapped feature from *Brawl* which involved characters gaining visible damage to their bodies and clothing has now been applied to all characters and will also appear prominent during screen KO's. In addition, Little Mac's damage will show during battle rather than only appearing during his Screen KO's, and Victory Poses.
* The game's art style has been changed to a mix between *Brawl's photo-realistic* designs, and *Smash 4's* brighter color palettes with added details.
* In addition to Palette Swaps, every character on the roster now has access to alternate costumes which actually change the character's appearance. Many of the costumes are based on various games, while other's are designed specifically for the game. Some of these costumes also come with recolors.
* Characters that didn't speak in previous games such as Bowser, Donkey Kong, Diddy Kong, Pac-Man, and Mega Man now have full voice acting applied to them. In the case of Bowser, Donkey Kong, and Diddy Kong, they use their regular voice actors from the Mario games, while Pac-Man and Mega Man use their voice actors from previous games/cartoons. In addition, Marth and Roy now speak English in the international versions of the game. Marth will be voiced by Yuri Lowenthal once again, while Roy's English voice has yet to be determined.
* Adventure Mode returns from Melee and has been greatly expanded to include many of the playable universes. In addition, Bowser is no longer the only villain fought at the end, as many of the other playable villains can appear for the final battle instead.
* Brawl's Single Player Campaign mode has returned with a brand new story and a new final boss. Rather than a big generic world, the mode takes various locations from many Nintendo and Third-Party games. In addition due to Melee's Adventure Mode returning, the single-player mode has been renamed Story Mode.
* Blast Zones have been reduced once more, and it is now possible once again to have a higher chance of gaining more Screen KO's and Star KO's. The Blast Zones have reverted once again to the way that they were originally were in both *Melee* and *Brawl*.
* Characters that are KO'd once again use their Star KO screams upon being defeated in Stamina Mode. This feature was absent in *Smash 4* and Ultimate.
* Stickers have returned once again and can be used in Story Mode once again to boost attack power. These replace "custom parts" such as ties, and shoes from Smash 4.
* The game's engine is now able to show effects such as characters getting wet from rain and or swimming. It also showcases characters getting dirty or muddy, similar to both Mario Kart 8, and a metal effect from the Kalos Pokemon League in Smash 4.
* Many veterans have been given updated movesets to breathe new life into them.
* Third-Parties now have no limit on characters, and series such as Street Fighter, Final Fantasy, and Sonic the Hedgehog can have more than one representative.

## Trivia

* This is the first Super Smash Bros. game to feature two playable characters that did not originate from a video game. According to Sactown Studios, the development team made room on the roster for two characters that did originate in a video game, but they still had to have had some significant history with Nintendo as a whole, therefore cementing the reasons for the characters Popeye, and Scrooge McDuck being playable characters in the game.
* Super Smash Bros. Universe is the first game in the franchise not to be directed by Masahiro Sakurai, who is succeeded by Dennis Muldrew in his place. Sakurai, however, served as the executive producer for the game's development. In addition, the game is also the first in the series to be developed by a Western developer.
