History

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

Richter makes his Super Smash Bros. debut in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate as a third-party character, alongside fellow Konami characters Solid Snake and Simon Belmont, Sega’s Sonic the Hedgehog and Bayonetta, Capcom’s Mega Man and Ryu, Bandai Namco’s Pac-Man, and Square Enix’s Cloud Strife. He and Simon were confirmed to be in the game via a Nintendo Direct that took place on August 8th, 2018. Richter is voiced in English by David Vincent, reprising his role from previous Castlevania titles, including Portrait of Ruin, Harmony of Despair, and The Dracula X Chronicles.

Richter is an Echo Fighter based on Simon, meaning that, although his moveset will be the same as Simon's, he will have his own unique animations and voice, among other minimal things. Richter's special attacks are Axe, an axe that is a powerful projectile; Holy Water, a magical, multi-hitting projectile dealing flame damage; Cross, a projectile with boomerang-esque properties; and Uppercut, a powerful uppercut that functions as his recovery move.
