It is the fifth installment in the Super Smash Bros. series (sixth if both versions of Super Smash Bros. 4 are counted separately). The game was released worldwide on December 7th, 2018.

Banjo & Kazooie were announced as playable characters via the Best Friends trailer aired during the E3 Nintendo Direct on June 11th, 2019.

Spiral Mountain is included as a playable stage, along with a new version of the level's music arranged by Grant Kirkhope which incorporates a medley of melodies from many other Banjo-Kazooie levels[1]. Gruntilda, Mumbo Jumbo, Bottles, Buzzbomb, and Tooty make cameo appearances as background characters on the stage.[2]
