Dark Pit appears as an unlockable playable character in the games as a newcomer. He was formally announced on October 9, 2014, but he was previously [http://www.twitch.tv/hamayama leaked] by a user's Twitch channel who got a copy of the 3DS game early. Even prior to the Twitch stream, he was mentioned in another [[smashwiki:Leak#ESRB_leak|leak]]. Dark Pit can be unlocked by completing [[smashwiki:Classic Mode|Classic Mode]] three times, or playing 50 VS matches. Before his confirmation, he made an ambiguous cameo at the end of [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xqTW13AYniY#t Palutena's trailer] when the goddess questions if he has dropped in to crash her party, with which he responds with a smug "uh-huh". Interestingly, he also appears on the [http://www.kidicaruswiki.org/File:PalutenaSSB4_poster.jpg promotional artwork for Palutena], as seen in the distance.

Dark Pit is a [[smashwiki:clone|clone]] of [[Pit]], and uses his [[Silver Bow]] as his main weapon, but has a few minor differences, such as his [[smashwiki:side special|side special]], which is the [[Electroshock Arm]]. Despite his render depicting him wielding his [[Dark Pit Staff]], he only uses it for one move—his [[smashwiki:Final Smash|Final Smash]]. He also has an unique victory fanfare which takes tunes from his iconic theme song. In the complete roster, Dark Pit's slot is placed between [[mariowiki:Dr. Mario|Dr. Mario]] and [[fireemblemwiki:Lucina|Lucina]], instead of next to his fellow ''Kid Icarus'' comrades, this is likely due to the fact that Dark Pit originally was just an alternate costume for Pit who was later turned to his own character, just like Dr. Mario and Lucina.<ref>http://www.forbes.com/sites/insertcoin/2014/10/10/super-smash-bros-for-wii-u-director-has-harsh-words-for-clone-critics/</ref>
