Super Mario Odyssey: release & info

Super Mario Odyssey is the next big adventure with Mario in the lead role for the Nintendo Switch.

Release of Super Mario Odyssey

Super Mario Odyssey will be released on October 27, 2017, exclusively for the Nintendo Switch.
So far there is no information about possible special or limited versions. It is also unknown whether the game will be released in a bundle with the Nintendo Switch.
Nintendo EPD (Nintendo Entertainment Planning & Development), an internal division of Nintendo, is responsible for the development. The game will therefore not appear for other manufacturers' consoles or the PC.

In his adventure on the Nintendo Switch, the popular plumber travels to a new world with different sections.
The city of New Donk City, which is modeled on real New York, stands out. A desert and ruin world as well as the Wooded Kingdom, a forest kingdom, have also been revealed.
In Super Mario Odyssey, instead of stars like in the previous games, you now have to collect moons that are scattered all over the place.
As in other Mario games, your job will be to save Princess Peach from Bowser. He planned a wedding with the princess in the new game.
A big innovation is Mario's hat called Cappy, which not only lets you jump higher and defeat opponents, but also take over and control the enemies.
Mario can also collect and unlock costumes. In addition, certain sections can be played as Pixel Mario in retro style and new amiibo characters are supported.

We will tell you in another practical tip why Super Mario Odyssey no longer has a game over screen.
