The characters form teams based on the developments of the story. All hidden characters can be unlocked by simply playing through The Subspace Emissary. A second player can join at any time, though the camera will focus on player one.

In order to obtain trophies of the enemies in this game, the player must throw a Trophy Stand at them. This acts just like a [[Poké Ball]] as it 'captures' the opponent when they are at low health. It also works against bosses, such as {{p|Rayquaza}}.

Led by a being known as the {{sbw|Ancient Minister}}, the {{sbw|Subspace Army}}'s plan is to cut apart the world and carry it into {{sbw|Subspace}}. This is achieved by two {{sbw|Robotic Operating Buddy|R.O.B}}s detonating a {{sbw|Subspace Bomb}} and the minions known as {{sbw|Primids}}, which are created from {{sbw|Shadow Bugs}} from {{sbw|Mr. Game & Watch}}, attacking anyone who resists. Now everyone must team up to stop this threat. After finding the Ancient Minister, who turns out to be a {{sbw|R.O.B. (SSBB)|R.O.B.}} in disguise, all the Subspace Bombs in the factory detonate, creating a portal into Subspace from which {{zw|Ganondorf}} and {{smw|Bowser}} emerge on a giant battleship. The characters of Super Smash Bros. Brawl team up and enter Subspace, where they see {{sbw|Master Hand}} chained by what appear to be chains made of light. Master Hand crashes to the ground just as a mysterious being known as {{sbw|Tabuu}} emerges. Tabuu attacks with his wings, turning all the characters into {{sbw|Trophy|trophies}}. {{wk|Kirby}} awakens due to the effects of the badge he earlier spotted lying on the ground, dropped by {{wk|King Dedede}}. He then proceeds to pick up the trophies of other characters. The player then goes through {{sbw|the Great Maze}}, a mashed up version of the real world that Tabuu has made in Subspace. When the player finds all the characters and fight their Subspace versions, the door to Tabuu is unlocked. Once again, the characters confront Tabuu. He is about to turn them into trophies with his wings again, when {{sbw|Sonic the Hedgehog|Sonic}} shows up, tearing through Tabuu's wings, rendering them useless. He is also unlocked for use against Tabuu. Once the player defeats Tabuu, the credits roll and afterwards {{sbw|All-Star Mode}} can be unlocked; provided that {{sbw|Classic Mode|Classic mode}} has been beaten as well.
