Super Smash Bros. Zelda Stages: Great Plateau Tower


Last but not least, we're taking a look at the one new Zelda stage in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate: the Great Plateau Tower from The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, the new and revolutionary game in the series. It sets itself apart by being a very simple stage for a change, which takes place on the Sheikah Tower of the Great Plateau as a simple flat stage. You can destroy the top for an additional platform, but that's really it.

Overall, this feels like the perfect representation for the game. The Great Plateau is the one thing that every Nintendo fan should have experienced or at least seen from the game. Using the Sheikah Tower as a the stage itself is as simple as it is clever and nicely brings the Sheikah technology into the mix, while the beauty of Hyrule's open and vast landscape can be beheld in the background. It's pretty much perfect.

As a fun detail the Old Man can appear with his Paraglider. And if the Smash team is really good, they will use floating platform from the end of the "Final Trial" as this stage's Omega form. We'll see about that.
