The initial proposal for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate was completed in December 2015, while the team was still working on DLC for the previous games.[4] Development for the new title officially started in February 2016.[5] officially started in Bandai Namco was once again contracted to develop the game, with much of the staff that worked on Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U returning.[4] For this installment, the team chose to build off of what was already established in the previous title rather than completely overhauling the game systems.[4]
