Nintendo Announces New 2D Mario Game, Super Mario Bros. Wonder

During Nintendo Direct June 2023, Nintendo announced Super Mario Bros. Wonder, a brand new 2D Mario adventure.

From the trailer, it looks like multiple characters will be playable, including Mario himself, Luigi, Princess Peach and most likely for the first time ever in 2D form, Princess Daisy.

The next evolution of 2D side-scrolling Super Mario Bros. games is headed to Nintendo Switch! 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. Plus, Super Mario Bros. Wonder sees the debut of Mario’s newest power-up, which allows him to transform into Elephant Mario.

Super Mario Bros. Wonder will launch for the Nintendo Switch on 20 October 2023.
