The item first appeared in ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'' and [[Super Mario RPG (Nintendo Switch)|its Nintendo Switch remake]]. In this game, the Ultra Hammer is Mario's second most powerful weapon, being beaten by the [[Lazy Shell]]. It is found in the [[Weapon World]] inside a [[treasure chest|treasure box]], shortly before fighting [[Count Down]]. In the official artwork for the Ultra Hammer, the hammerhead has metal linings on each end and has the word "ULTRA", in red, at the side.

In ''Paper Mario'', the Ultra Hammer is found within the caverns of [[Mt. Lavalava]], and allows Mario to smash [[Metal Block]]s. This new ability allows him and [[Kolorado]] to delve deeper into the volcano and eventually face the [[Lava Piranha]]. It can also be used to flip hidden panels on the ground just like the [[Super Boots]], revealing [[Star Piece (Paper Mario series)|Star Pieces]] from underneath.

In ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'', the Ultra Hammer is found inside a chest placed on a high platform in [[Rogueport]]'s plaza that Mario must use the [[Spring Jump]] to dislodge it from underneath. This Ultra Hammer has been downgraded somewhat from the previous game in that it can only destroy [[Stone Block]]s at the most and cannot reveal Star Pieces in the ground.

This Ultra Hammer has been downgraded somewhat from the previous game in that it can only destroy [[stone block]]s at the most and cannot reveal Star Pieces in the ground. The Ultra Hammer command in battles will knock the front enemy back into every enemy behind it and will always deal 3 damage to enemies attacked behind the front enemy, regardless of attack boosting power-ups and enemy defense.
 
Like the Super Hammer, the Ultra Hammer can be used to perform a spinning hammer swing, also known as [[Ultra Hammer (move)|Ultra Hammer]], which is capable of destroying Big Stone Blocks, in addition to the [[Yellow Block|Big Yellow Block]]s that the [[Super Hammer (move)|Super Hammer]] can destroy. It can also be used to get the [[First Strike]] on enemies, allowing Mario to start the battle with an Ultra Hammer attack without using any [[Flower Point]]s. The Ultra Hammer attack in battles costs 4 FP and similarly acts as a stronger variant of the Super Hammer move.

In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'' and its [[Nintendo 3DS|3DS]] remake, ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]'', the Ultra Hammer is the third and last Hammer upgrade Mario and [[Luigi]] receive. After being tasked by [[Bowletta]] with going to [[Joke's End]] so the brothers can give her the revived [[Beanstar]], Mario and Luigi can return to the [[Hammerhead Bros.]] in their cave in eastern [[Beanbean Fields]], who have mastered a "brand-spankin' new hammer makin' technique". The two then continue to reforge Mario and Luigi's [[Super Hammer]]s into Ultra Hammers using their new technique.

The two then continue to reforge Mario and Luigi's [[Super Hammer]]s into Ultra Hammers using their new technique.


With them, they can break [[Black Rock]]s on the field (golden rocks in the remake), most notably giving the duo access to [[Surfing Spot]]s on the shoreline of [[Oho Ocean]], which are needed to reach their next destination, Joke's End. They also gain access to the second room behind the Hammerhead Bros.' cave, allowing them to have the chance to win the [[Secret Scroll 2]], and with it, the new [[Bros. Attack]], [[Cyclone Bros.]] by playing a [[minigame]] hosted by a [[Thwomp]]. Unlike the Ultra Hammers in the ''Paper Mario'' series, these hammers are not any stronger in battle in the original game, but they give higher damage variance. They also lack the red stripe.
