On October 5, 2021, Sora was announced to be the last DLC character for ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' and was released alongside his home stage [[Hollow Bastion]] as part of Challenger Pack 11 on October 18, 2021. According to Sakurai in Sora's reveal trailer, Sora was the real winner of the Smash Bros. Fighter Ballot held in 2015 for ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]''; though the contest concluded with [[Bayonetta]] being added to the game, Sakurai stated that this was because Sora was not considered a realistic option at the time.<ref name=Sora>Nintendo (October 5, 2021). [https://youtu.be/L-q6Gz_4Yqc Super Smash Bros.™ Ultimate – Battling with Sora – Nintendo Switch]. ''YouTube''. Retrieved October 5, 2021.</ref>
 
Sora is a lightweight character who possesses a unique midair jump, ascending a further distance in a curved trajectory in a similar manner to [[Ness]] or [[Mewtwo]]. If Sora wins a stamina battle, the screen will zoom in and slowly fade to white, a reference to the victory animation that occurs when defeating a boss in the ''Kingdom Hearts'' series.
 
All of Sora's alternate costumes are based on each of his outfits in the series. While the default one is from the first ''[[khwiki:Kingdom Hearts (game)|Kingdom Hearts]]'', the second one is from ''[[khwiki:Kingdom Hearts II|Kingdom Hearts II]]'', third from ''[[khwiki:Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance|Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance]]'' and fourth from ''[[khwiki:Kingdom Hearts III|Kingdom Hearts III]]''. The rest are various forms of him from the games; the fifth, sixth and seventh are the [[khwiki:Timeless River|Timeless River]] form, the [[khwiki:Valor Form|Valor Form]] and [[khwiki:Wisdom Form|Wisdom Form]] from ''Kingdom Hearts II'' respectively, and the eighth and last is the [[khwiki:Ultimate Form|Ultimate Form]] from ''Kingdom Hearts III''.
 
====Classic Mode route====

===Palutena's Guidance===
Sora shares this stock conversation with all other DLC characters except [[Piranha Plant]]. It was originally used for [[Mewtwo]], [[Lucas]], [[Roy (Fire Emblem)|Roy]], [[Ryu]], [[Cloud Strife|Cloud]], [[Corrin]], and [[Bayonetta]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'', who are downloadable fighters in that game.
*'''[[Pit (character)|Pit]]''': Who is THAT?
*'''[[Palutena]]''': I have no data on this fighter. I can't believe it!
*'''[[List of Smash Taunt characters#Viridi|Viridi]]''': It must be an intruder from another dimension!
*'''Pit''': Whoever it is, the goal remains the same: to fight and win!
