The game also features two voiced theme songs, 'Jump Up, Super Star!' and 'Break Free (Lead The Way)'. Unlike previous installments such as New Super Mario Bros., and Super Mario 3D Land, which were aimed at a more casual audience, the team designed Super Mario Odyssey to appeal to the series' core fans. Various ideas were suggested during development, and to incorporate them all the team decided to employ a sandbox-style of gameplay. The game supports multiplayer and virtual reality with a Nintendo Labo virtual reality kit.ĭeveloped by Nintendo's Entertainment Planning & Development division, the game entered development in 2013 soon after the release of Super Mario 3D World.

After completing the main story mode, other post-game kingdoms are unlockable as well as an additional minigame, ' Luigi's Balloon World'.

Cappy's main function is the 'capture' ability, letting Mario possess enemies and other objects, helping him solve puzzles and progress in the game. In the game, Mario explores various kingdoms and collects Power Moons hidden inside them, used as a fuel source to power an airship known as the Odyssey to travel to new locations.

In contrast to the linear gameplay of prior entries, the game returns to the primarily open-ended, 3D platform gameplay featured in Super Mario 64 and Super Mario Sunshine. An entry in the Super Mario series, it follows Mario and his new ally Cappy-a sentient hat that allows Mario to control other characters and objects-as they journey across various kingdoms to save Princess Peach from his nemesis Bowser's plans of forced marriage.

Super Mario Odyssey is a 2017 platform game developed and published by Nintendo for the Nintendo Switch.
