Unfortunately, King K. Rool isn’t one of the original eight playable characters in Super Smash Bros Ultimate, so you will have to unlock him. Thankfully, there are multiple simple ways in which you can do so. As with any unlockable character in Smash Ultimate, however, you will need to beat King K. Rool in a fight before you can unlock him.

The easiest way to unlock King K Rool is through Classic Mode. To unlock King K Rool via Classic Mode, all you need to do is complete it (at any difficulty level) with Link. Upon doing this you will have to beat King K Rool in a one-on-one fight, unlocking him when you win. Find out how to replay the new challenger fights with our guide.

There are other ways of unlocking King K. Rool, however. You can unlock him simply by taking part in regular battles. Based on your levels of input, you will unlock new characters every so often simply by playing Smash Ultimate. It will count your button input on every mode, but the unlock order will remain the same (missing out any characters you’ve already unlocked via Classic Mode and World of Light). Based on this, King K Rool is the sixteenth fighter you will unlock, after Jigglypuff, and before Sonic.
