Link was the first character to be announced for ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. Unlike in previous installments, this Link is the "Hero of Twilight", the descendant of the Hero of Time and the protagonist of ''[[zeldawiki:The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess]]''. This Link's moveset also references ''The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess'' in a number of ways. The bow (now called "Hero's Bow") and bombs have been aesthetically updated to match their ''The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess'' designs, while the boomerang has been replaced with the [[#Gale Boomerang|Gale Boomerang]], which generates a whirlwind that can drag in opponents as it returns. The Hookshot has also been replaced with the [[zeldawiki:Clawshot|Clawshot]] from ''The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess'', which, when used offstage, can home in on edges and grab them unlike the Hookshot; however, it is now a tether recovery, as opposed to a wall grapple. Dark Link also appears in the game, both as one of Link's alternative colors and as an opponent in an Event Match. The "Hero of Winds" from ''[[zeldawiki:The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker]]'' also appears in the game as a playable character under the name [[Toon Link]], complete with a moveset very similar to Link's. | Link was the first character to be announced for ''[[Super Smash Bros.

Dark Link also reappears in this game, where he returns in two Event Matches. The first, [[smashwiki:Event Match 18: Dark Link Duel|Event Match 18: Dark Link Duel]], is similar to the match from Melee, but it is fought on the [[Bridge of Eldin]] instead, and is a stamina match rather than using lives. The second, [[smashwiki:Co-Op Event 7: Battle of the Dark Sides|Co-Op Event 7: Battle of the Dark Sides]], is the same as Dark Link Duel, but with the addition of [[Samus | Dark Link also reappears in this game, where he returns in two Event Matches.

Versions of Dark Link also appear as palette swaps for both Link and Toon Link. Link's is based on the [[zeldawiki:Dark Interlopers|"interlopers"]] from ''[[zeldawiki:The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess]]'', whereas Toon Link's is based off Shadow Link from ''[[zeldawiki:The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures|The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures]]''. | Versions of Dark Link also appear as palette swaps for both Link and Toon Link.
