Super Smash Bros. Ultimate update history

This article is under construction. Therefore, please excuse its informal appearance while it is being worked on. We hope to have it completed as soon as possible.

This article requires a cleanup to meet the Super Smash Bros. Wiki's quality standards. Please edit this page to improve it. Feel free to discuss this cleanup on the article's talk page.

The following is an update history for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.

Note that the most recently released software update must be downloaded in order to access Online. In addition, most updates invalidate replay data created before that update, making them unplayable, due to replays reading game data and inputting recordings of data live, rather than actual footage. Release dates are in Pacific Standard Time.
