I will be listing the changes of the 1.1.3 patch for Smash 4. It's a little late since this patch happened in December 2015 and 1.1.4 patch has been released already. I plan on covering 1.1.4 and more patches in the future for Smash 4.

Characters:

Bowser:

Up throw's knockback and angle altered: 90 base/80 growth → 25 base/155 growth, 70° → 82°. These changes repurpose it into a combo starter, which can be performed even up to high percents.
Up throw's ending lag decreased: 68 frames → 61.
Up throw's loop hits deal 0.5% less damage: 1% → 0.5%.
Up throw's loop hits' hitlag multiplier decreased: 1x → 0.5x.
Up throw's final hit's knockback increased: 0 → 80 (base), 100 → 200 (growth).
Flying Slam's grab to slam transition speed increased. This makes it function similarly to how it did in Brawl.
All variations of Flying Slam now have invincibility frames before Bowser leaves the ground.
All variations of Whirling Fortress can now grab ledges from behind.

Charizard:

Dash attack hitbox 0 angle: 70° → 50°.
Dash attack hitbox 1 angle: 80° → 60°.
Several minor tweaks made to up smash.
Down smash hitbox 0/1 knockback growth: 76 → 79.
Down smash hitbox 2/3 knockback growth: 82 → 85.

Aerial Electroshock/Electrocut Arm knockback growth decreased: 60 → 58.

Ganondorf:

Down smash's second hit's angle changed: 130° → 50°, now pushing shielding opponents away rather than towards him. The first hit now flips non-shielding opponents, leaving the launch angle against them unchanged.
Neutral aerial first hit has drastically reduced knockback, allowing it combo into the second hit more effectively, similar to Captain Falcon's.
The drastically reduced knockback on neutral aerial's first hit makes the move less safe on hit and on landing until extremely high percentages, less effective as a spacer, and completely removes its KOing capabilities.
Neutral aerial first hit (clean) damage: 12% → 7%.
Neutral aerial first hit (late) damage: 8% → 4.5%.
Neutral aerial second hit startup: 20 → 17.
Neutral aerial second hit (clean) damage: 10% → 12%.

Forward aerial landing lag: 23 → 22.
Back and up aerial landing lag: 20 → 19.

Grounded, reverse Warlock Punch now has super armor on frames 11-58.
Grounded, reverse Warlock Blade now has super armor on frames 11-54.

Down smash knockback growth: 108 → 109.
Forward aerial knockback growth: 145 → 148.

Up throw knockback growth: 63 → 74.

Link:

Forward smash second hit knockback growth: 85 → 89.
Down smash first hit angle: 75° → 78°.
Down smash's first hit's knockback altered: 26 (base)/90 (growth) → 40/88. This allows it to KO slightly earlier.
Forward aerial first hit damage: 8% → 11%.
Forward aerial first hit base knockback: 10 → 20.
Forward aerial first hit knockback growth: 132 → 130.
Forward aerial second damage: 10% → 13%.
Forward aerial second hit knockback growth: 105 → 100.
Down aerial no longer meteor smashes grounded opponents.
Down aerial has a new early hitbox designed to hit only grounded opponents; it deals less knockback (25 base/40 growth) and launches at an angle of 55° instead of meteor smashing. This allows Link to hit foes a second time with the attack right after bouncing off them, dealing a massive amount of damage (26% if both hits connect), which works until they reach about 60% damage.
Down aerial's second bounce deals more damage: 8% → 11%.

Smash Bros is a Nintendo first party game which means it is only on Nintendo systems like the 3DS of Wii-U and will not be found on any other system like a PS4, Xbone, or even PC.
