Within the comic, Pit is seen alongside various characters including Mario, Luigi, Princess Toadstool, [[Toad]], [[Yoshi]], Link, and [[Mega Man]].

Pit appears as a new fighter in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. Pit's design has been significantly altered from his design in the two ''Kid Icarus'' games before, based on [[Masahiro Sakurai]]'s interpretation of what Pit would look like if the ''Kid Icarus'' series had continued after ''Of Myths and Monsters''.<ref>"In bringing [Pit] to Super Smash Bros. Brawl, I [Masahiro Sakurai] designed him imagining, 'if the series had continued and he had evolved with it over these long years, what kind of character would he be?'"

While Minami Takayama reprised her role in the Japanese version, Pit is now voiced in English by Anthony Del Rio, his voice actor from ''[[icaruspedia:Kid Icarus: Uprising|Kid Icarus: Uprising]]'', which was also developed by Masahiro Sakurai. While part of his moveset is the same as in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', such as Palutena's Arrow (now named Palutena Bow, as the weapon is known in ''Kid Icarus: Uprising''), all of his other special moves as well as his [[Final Smash]] have been replaced, mostly to reflect his appearance in ''Kid Icarus: Uprising''. While Pit still has multiple jumps, the gliding mechanic has been removed entirely.

▲Pit returns in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', as an unlockable playable character, retaining his special moveset from the previous installment. He has a new Final Smash, where instead of wielding the Three Sacred Treasures, he rides in on the [[#Lightning Chariot|Lightning Chariot]]. This makes him one of the few fighters that have appeared since ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' to have a different Final Smash in each appearance (along with [[King Dedede]], [[R.O.B.]], and [[Zero Suit Samus]]). [[Dark Pit]] is also specified as an Echo Fighter based on Pit in this game. Pit gains a new quote for his Star KO'd animation. Pit's up tilt is called Anti-Air Attack, while his down aerial is called Under-Arch Slash.
Pit has received many improvements compared to the previous installment, such as faster mobility, reduced short hop timing and landing lag in aerial attacks, the reintroduction of directional air dodging, the ability to dash cancel any ground attack, and the ability to use aerial attacks on ladders. Pit also receives improvements such as decreased ending lag in his up tilt, down tilt, and down throw; increased ability to knock back opponents in his dash attack, forward smash, back aerial attack, and down aerial attack; and increased damage for his standard, forward, and up aerial attacks.

▲The '''[[icaruspedia:Palutena Bow|Palutena Bow]]''' (known as '''Palutena's Arrow''' in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''; also referred to as the '''Sacred Bow of Palutena'''<ref>[http://www.smashbros.com/wii/en_us/characters/pit.html Pit] on the Smash Bros. DOJO!! website.</ref> and '''Palutena's Bow''') is Pit's standard special move. Pit fires an arrow from the bow that can be controlled with the analog stick. The move can also be charged by holding down the special move button before firing, and can be aimed in either direction or directly up as it charges.
In ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'' / ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U|Wii U]]'', this move has two custom variants. The first is '''Piercing Bow''' (named '''Bow of Piercing''' in the PAL version), which is more powerful but takes longer to charge, travels more slowly, and cannot be guided. The second is '''Guiding Bow''' (named '''Bow of Guidance''' in the PAL version), which gives greater control over the arrow but makes it less powerful.

Ultimate]]'', replacing Angel Ring from ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''. When used, Pit dashes forward and uppercuts any opponents in his path. The move can also deflect projectiles when executing the uppercut.
In ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' / ''Wii U'', this move has two variants: '''Interception Arm''' and '''Quickdash Arm'''. Interception Arm turns the move into a counter move, allowing Pit to counterattack opponents with an uppercut when attacked. Quickdash Arm has a longer and faster dash which continues after dealing the attack.

When used, Pit's wings turn blue, and the player is able to fly freely for a limited time. The move gives Pit extra height when used from on the ground, also pushing away nearby opponents and items.

The '''[[
▲The '''[[icaruspedia:Power of Flight|Power of Flight]]''' is the up special move used by both Pit and Dark Pit in ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' / ''Wii U'' and ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'', replacing Pit's previous up special move from ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', Wings of Icarus. It is based upon the limited flight power granted to Pit by [[Palutena]] in ''Kid Icarus: Uprising'' for the game's flight combat sections, as Pit cannot fly on his own. When used, Pit briefly charges up and takes off in the direction the player holds the stick in a quick burst of movement.
Pit and Dark Pit also share custom variations of this move in ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' / ''Wii U''. The first is '''Striking Flight''', which deals damage as Pit takes off, but can only be used to move at a slight left or right angle. The second variation is '''Breezy Flight''', which does not send Pit as high, but is faster to execute and creates a whirlwind when taking off that pushes away opponents.

It can also protect against physical attacks, though only when the attacker is facing Pit. The player can keep the shield out longer by holding down the special button, and can also angle the shield upward with the control stick.

The '''[[
▲The '''[[icaruspedia:Guardian Orbitars|Guardian Orbitars]]''' are weapons in the [[icaruspedia:Orbitars|Orbitar]] weapon class in ''Kid Icarus: Uprising'', appearing as the down special move for both Pit and Dark Pit in ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' / ''Wii U'' and ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'', and replacing Pit's Mirror Shield move from ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''. Pit summons the Guardian Orbitars to project a pair of shields around both sides of himself that can block attacks from both sides. They also push away opponents upon use, and remain active for a limited time as long as the player holds down the special move button, or automatically after a few seconds. If the shields are attacked enough, however, they shatter, preventing the player from using them for a time.
Pit and Dark Pit also share this move's custom variations in ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' / ''Wii U''. The first is '''Impact Orbitars''', which makes the move a proper attack at the cost of defending Pit. The second is '''Amplifying Orbitars''', which increases the power of reflected projectile attacks but makes the Orbitars weaker.

The treasures make an appearance as Pit's Final Smash in ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' / ''Wii U'', replacing Palutena's Army from ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''. When used, Pit dons the treasures and starts firing off light arrows in the direction he's facing. Pit fires several small arrows, homing bursts of light, and a large light arrow that is fired in an arc toward an opponent. After launching all of the arrows, Pit calls down several beams of light that are spread across the stage, damaging opponents and breakable obstacles they connect with. Afterwards, Pit unequips the Three Sacred Treasures. Despite having all three treasures equipped, Pit only uses the Arrow of Light for this attack.

The '''[[icaruspedia:Lightning Chariot|Lightning Chariot]]''' is a sacred vehicle from ''Kid Icarus: Uprising'' drawn by two unicorns, Phos and Lux, and formerly owned by the [[icaruspedia:Chariot Master|Chariot Master]]. It appears as Pit's Final Smash in ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'', replacing the Three Sacred Treasures in ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' / ''Wii U'', and functions similar to the [[Dragoon]]. Upon activating the Final Smash, Pit rides the Lightning Chariot into the background and crosshairs appear on the screen, allowing the player to aim their attack. After doing so, Pit charges onto the stage, damaging and launching any opponents within range.
