Super Mario Bros. Wonder is the first new 2d title in quite a while
Ending the recent Nintendo Direct was Super Mario Bros. Wonder, the first new side-scrolling Mario game in 11 years. It has a new art style, new playable characters and the ability for things to get really weird when you interact with a Wonder flower.
When you touch a Wonder Flower in the game, the wonders of the world unlock – pipes could come alive, hordes of enemies may appear, characters might change their looks, for example – transforming the gameplay in unpredictable ways.
Super Mario Bros. Wonder features Princess Peach, Princess Daisy and Yoshi as playable characters, in addition to familiar characters like Mario, Luigi and Toad; no word on Nabbit or Toadette.
Plus, Super Mario Bros. Wonder sees the debut of Mario’s newest power-up, which allows him to transform into Elephant Mario, joining the some traditional ones.
The game will release on Switch on October 20th, with digital pre-orders available to be made here.
