Hello everyone, I was just looking at that Nintendo's video where the Ultimate's Final Destination stage displayed at the E3.2018 was actually a Ω-version of Battlefield (source). At the moment, the actual stage remains hidden. Why didn't they showed us the actual stage ? Maybe that's because it's unfinished, but that would be hard to believe when we see all the content they already put in the game.
According to some people, the new Final Destination stage appears in those screenshots taken from the official website of the new game (source, Black Hole Item). At first it might looks like a stage from Metroid but the background makes it impossible. In fact, the gloomy-blue and bloody-looking background feels similar to the previous Final Destination from Super Smash Bros. 4 with its duality-themed apocalyptic scenery. It also have futuristic features that makes it looks a little like Super Smash Bros. Melee's Final Destination.
Anyway, the real question remains "why does the stage remains unseen ?". I know that they did the same thing back in 2013 with the demo-version of Super Smash Bros. 4 for Wii U where you only had Battlefield, Mushroom Kingdom U, Skyloft, Coliseum, Town & City, Pilotwings, Dr. Wily's Castle and the Box Ring, but they didn't put a Omega-version to replace an existing stage. Also, the new stages were shown in a very-explicit way.
We know back in Super Smash Bros. Brawl that Sakurai likes to surprise the player so it might be just that but I still think that there's something that I'm missing. Maybe that the stage could hint of a big story-mode such as the Subspace Emissary II (or something similar). It could fit the description of the Nintendo's showcase at E3.2018 (source).

Or it might have to do something about Master-Hand & Crazy-Hand (and Master-Core?) boss battle. To this day the stage section on the official website is still unavailable for some reasons so we'll have to wait until further announcements to know more about that new Final Destination. What are your thoughts on this ? What are you expecting on the new version ?Your starting roster may be as small as their original Nintendo 64 game. We've streamlined the conditions for unlocking fighters and we want to make the process interesting so it feels like you're constantly recruiting popular characters to your side.
