Joker, a character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, originates from the Persona series, a popular Japanese role-playing game (RPG) franchise developed by Atlus. Joker is the main protagonist of “Persona 5,” which was first released in 2016 for the PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4.

Appearance: Joker is known for his stylish and distinctive appearance. In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, he retains the design from “Persona 5,” featuring his black and white school uniform, red gloves, and the iconic mask that he wears during heists.

Abilities and Fighting Style: Joker is an agile and versatile fighter with a unique twist – his Persona, Arsene. Arsene grants Joker enhanced abilities, and many of his attacks involve quick and acrobatic movements. Joker excels in both close-quarters combat and using his Persona for ranged attacks.

Special Moves:

• Neutral Special – Gun / Gun Special: Joker fires a single gunshot, and with Arsene, the move transforms into a rapid-fire gun.
• Side Special – Eiha / Eigaon: Joker casts a curse attack, and with Arsene, it becomes a more potent projectile.
• Up Special – Grappling Hook / Wings of Rebellion: Joker uses a grappling hook for vertical recovery, and with Arsene, he gains wings for extended recovery.
• Down Special – Rebel’s Guard / Tetrakarn / Makarakarn: Joker counterattacks with Rebel’s Guard, and with Arsene, the move can also reflect projectiles.

Final Smash – All-Out Attack: Joker’s Final Smash involves trapping caught opponents in a cinematic sequence where he and his teammates from “Persona 5” unleash a powerful All-Out Attack.

In-Game Unlocking: Joker is a downloadable content (DLC) character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. Players can acquire him by purchasing the Challenger Pack 1, which includes Joker, his stage, and additional music.

Trophies and Spirits: Joker has associated trophies and spirits in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. These collectibles provide additional information about Joker’s role in “Persona 5” and various poses or scenes.

Crossover Gameplay: Joker’s inclusion in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate allows players to experience battles featuring the iconic Persona protagonist against characters from different Nintendo franchises and beyond. Joker’s unique moveset, the incorporation of Persona mechanics, and the stylish aesthetic from “Persona 5” make him a compelling addition to the diverse roster of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.
