Critic Reviews for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
A chaos of details and features come together for one of the Switch's most generous - and exhilarating - games.
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is an absurdly content-rich fighting game experience with a massive roster of fighters and a slew of entertaining match types.
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is Smash Bros. done right, and done bigger than ever before.
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate takes characters we've played for decades and remasters them into a robust, fantastically enjoyable package
A wealth of tweaks and new additions like the World of Light campaign help to keep Ultimate from feeling like a greatest-hits retread
Ultimate is a comprehensive, considered, and charming package that refines and builds on Smash's already strong and enduring fighting system.
It's not an exaggeration to say that Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is the biggest accomplishment in the series thus far.
