Suzaku Castle

""Since this is Ryu's home stage we're talking about, it's probably no surprise that it focuses on the fundamentals of platform fighters. If you launch an opponent into the signposts, they might break!""

Suzaku Castle is a stage in Nexed, resembling the stage of the same name from the Street Fighter II series (specifically its appearance in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U).

History
Suzaku Castle is Ryu's home stage in the Street Fighter II series and several other Street Fighter entries (although it has also been considered Akuma's home stage in Ultra Street Fighter II: The Final Challengers' instruction manual). It is an abandoned castle set in the mountains of Japan, having a dojo where Ryu had trained ever since he was a young boy.

Suzaku Castle is renowned as one of the most iconic Street Fighter stages due to its association with Ryu, the most iconic character. As such, it has appeared in Street Fighter entries such as Street Fighter III and V, as well as Street Fighter Alpha 3. It also appears in several crossover titles, most notably Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U and Brawlhalla, where it is available as a downloadable stage. The Smash for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U variant also returns in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate as a base game stage, and is the basis for the Nexed version of the stage.

Layout
The background of Suzaku Castle depicts the rooftops at the castle at sunset, with the dojo where Ryu trained being present on the left side. Several signposts are also present; If a fighter is launched into them with enough force, the signposts will break. Once all signposts are broken, they will eventually be repaired.

The stage itself consists of a series of platforms. Two walkoff platforms on the right serve as the stage's largest platforms, with the one at the top being a soft platform, while the one on the bottom is larger by nearly double. There are also two soft platforms on the left, although these are much smaller.

Hazards
Suzaku Castle has no hazards.
