Super Smash Bros. Zelda Stages: Skyloft


This is the last of the returning Zelda stages in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate and with it we really got all eight Zelda stages back. It was the only new Zelda stage in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, while previous Smash games usually added two new Zelda stages.

The stage itself offers a set of moving platforms flying around Skyloft from The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword. It works similar to Delfino Plaza and lands in a total of twelve different spots around the sky island. While the platforms are moving, you can see Skyloft in the background, which looks very close to the Wii original in detail.

The stage itself takes place during the middle of the game, because the three beams of light are there and Light Tower is opened, but the Statue of the Goddess is still in its rightful place.

It's the only Zelda stage with this travel platform mechanic and there isn't really much to say about it except that it's quite nice... Sadly, there is no atmospheric night variant with Remlits attacking the players.
