Classic Mode is a traditional 'arcade ladder' style experience where you pick a character and play through a series of battles against AI opponents.Smash Ultimate's solo modes basically split into three key categories: Classic Mode, Adventure Mode (also known as World of Light) and Spirit Board. Things could change over the course of many hours and these modes absolutely could outstay their welcome, but my initial impressions are clear - I'm loving this single-player mode more than anything since Melee introduced Adventure Mode and All Star Mode - and equally, in time Smash Ultimate's solo offering could well become my favourite in the series.

Ultimate for the Switch - after all, I've only played about twenty minutes of each of the key single-player offerings in the game. I want to slap a great big caveat on that headline and initial conclusion about the single-player offerings of Super Smash Bros. At its heart, Smash Bros is a multiplayer extravaganza - but Smash Ultimate's attempt to create meaningful single-player content may be Nintendo's best attempt yet.
