Super Smash Bros. Universe

Super Smash Bros. Rumble, or just SSBR, is the fifth game in the Super Smash Bros. series and the successor to Super Smash Bros. 4. Unlike SSB4, it is only released for one system (which is the Wii U). The game mainly focuses on keeping almost all Smash veterans in some form, so very few cuts have been made. Transformations do return. Every Melee character who was cut from Brawl returns except for Pichu.

Home-Run Contest

Home-Run Contest is a minigame where the player must hit Sandbag several times in 10 seconds in order to send him flying. The more damage Sandbag takes, the longer the home-run is.

Break the Targets

Break the Targets is a mode where the player must break 10 targets as quickly as possible. Like Brawl, stages aren't character exclusive, however there are now 20 stages instead of just 5.

Multi-Man Rumble

In this minigame, the player must defeat a variety of different Alloys. The Alloys are now not clones of other characters; all six have their own movesets. And yes, two more Alloys were added; the Orange and Purple Alloys.

• 10-Man Rumble- The player must defeat 10 opponents. This is one of the shortest out of all of the Multi-Man Rumble minigames.

• 100-Man Rumble- The player must defeat 100 opponents.

• 3-Minute Rumble- The player must defeat as many opponents as possible within the time limit.

• 15-Minute Rumble- This mode is similar to 3-Minute Rumble except that the time limit is much longer.

• Endless Rumble- The player must defeat as many opponents as possible before getting knocked out.

• Cruel Rumble- The opponents have increased handicap and aggressiveness. This is one of the hardest Multi-Man Rumble modes.

Training Mode

Training is a mode where a player can manipulate the gameplay of a match. This mode has several selectable modifiers, which are these:

• Speed- Allows the player to speed up or slow down the match.
• Item- Allows the player to spawn an item of their choice.
• CPU- Modifies the behavior of the CPUS.
• No. of CPUS- Allows the player to decide how many CPUS are in the match.
• CPU Damage- Allows the player to modify the amount of damage all of the CPUS have.
• Camera- Allows players to modify how the camera looks at the stage.

Boss Battle Mode

In this mode, the player must fight against every boss in the game with only one stock. This mode is unlocked after Story Mode is completed. The battles occur in random order except the final boss.

All-Star Mode

This mode pits the player against every playable character in the game, in order by when their series debuted. This mode is unlocked after all of the characters in the game have been unlocked.

Smash Run

First introduced in Super Smash Bros. for 3DS, this mode is making its first console appearance in this game. Characters traverse through one large map defeating enemies to collect patches which power them up. After 5 minutes, the powered-up fighters warp into one arena to battle. It can be played in multiplayer like in SSB3DS, however only two people can play at a time (one on the TV and one on the Game Pad) due to how the system works.

Tourney

Tourney mode is a mode where several players, 1-64, can battle. Several options can be chosen for them.

Rotation

Rotation is similar to Versus mode but lets anyone with more than four players swap out to take turns brawling. Up to 16 can play in this mode.

For Fun

In this mode, players battle in four player free-for all stock matches with items turned on. Team For Fun exists too.

For Glory

In this mode, players battle against each other, except that it is only in Final Destination, and items are turned off. To keep the matches from getting bland, Final Destination versions of every stage in the game exist. Team For Glory exists too.

Smash Run

Smash Run is playable online, and it is virtually the same as non-online matches except with multiple human players.

Vault

Trophies & Stickers

In this mode, players can view every trophy or sticker they have collected. To see all of the trophies or stickers, click on these links: Super Smash Bros. Rumble (CtM)/Trophies or Super Smash Bros. Rumble (CtM)/Stickers.

Album

Album is a mode where players can view photos that they have taken during battles.

Stage Builder

The stage builder returns in Super Smash Bros. Rumble, however a lot more features have been added, including more backgrounds, tiles, and stage hazards.

Challenges

Challenges shows a large grid that displays most of the unlockables in the game, excluding characters. When something is unlocked, the part of the grid representing that object will break.

Replays

This mode allows players to watch previous gameplay moments. When the match ends, players can press a button to save the replay to the Wii U or to a SD Card. Unlike its debut in Brawl, replays can be used in matches that lasted for more than 3 minutes.

Masterpieces

Masterpieces are free versions of popular Nintendo or third party games which fighters in SSBR have appeared in.
