Alternate costume (SSB4)
![]() | NOTE: Every claimed source needs a cross-reference link; claimed sources need to be plausible, not awfully obscure; default costumes usually don't need descriptions since they are not alternate costumes; returning costumes original toSmash do not need references to their appearances in previousSmash games. |
Each character inSuper Smash Bros. 4 has a set ofalternate costumes. Due to the presence of8-Player Smash, all characters now have eight costumes (except forLittle Mac, who has 16) for a total of 448 costumes in the game. Some costumes have slight visual differences between the 3DS and Wii U versions.
Some characters possess certain alternate costumes with more drastic design differences, and are not merely recolors of their standard outfits.Wario,Zero Suit Samus, Little Mac,Shulk,Cloud andBayonetta have different outfits available;Villager,Wii Fit Trainer,Robin andCorrin all have male and female variants;Olimar andBowser Jr. have model swaps that change them into new characters, complete with corresponding voice andAnnouncer clips, though like all other alternate costumes, they bear no gameplay differences.
Team Battles no longer confine characters to using their respective team color schemes, as teams are now indicated by colored outlines around the characters, giving players the freedom to pick whichever alternate costume they want to use in Team Battles.
On theFind Mii stage inSuper Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS, theDark Emperor uses magic that affects all players of the same color. Each alternate costume is allocated to one of the twelveMii colors: black, brown, red, orange, yellow, light green, green, light blue, blue, purple, pink, and white. These colors are noted in the below lists as a bar underneath the corresponding portrait; as several characters have multiple costumes that share this color, the main color names as used on this page do not conform to this system.
