This Friday, fans of the most famous plumber in the history of video games will have a perfect plan to live a different Valentine's Day or enjoy with their friends wherever they are, because Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury arrives on Nintendo Switch .
This is a 3D Mario adventure that, for the first time, can be enjoyed not only in local multiplayer but also online. Choose your character based on his abilities and prepare to travel through the fairy kingdom and face Bowser's wrath.
What is Super Mario 3D World ?
35 years of life of Super Mario go a long way and that includes a wide variety of games, among which Super Mario 3D World stands out.
Super Mario 3D World is an adventure that brings together all the magic of the license in a single game and that contains many references and nods to the great titles in the history of the plumber.
In addition, this edition presents a great novelty: the new Bowser's Fury mode . This is a second adventure, unpublished, in which we will unfold in a fascinating open world in which Mario will have to assume a new and gigantic feline form to face a Bowser of colossal proportions that is out of control.
Do you want to see them in action? Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury Trailer – Bowser's Furious Strength! (Nintendo Switch) contains all the information about the new threat that hangs over Mario.
What do you think? What is very interesting? Well, we are going to talk about the game modes, which are the most attractive. We have two main modes to choose from: campaign mode or cooperative multiplayer.
How do we face this adventure?
Will we decide to play alone and prove ourselves, or will we look for the best allies to join forces and, incidentally, maximize the fun? It can be a perfect plan to enjoy as a couple (and celebrate Valentine's Day doing what we like the most) or as a family. Up to 4 players can play Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury on the same console or with local play as usual.
And we still have more to present! The great novelty is that, for the first time, it will also be possible to play online, which will allow several friends to agree to connect and enjoy the adventure together, wherever they are.
And how does multiplayer work?
First of all, choose the characters and pay close attention to their different abilities : Mario is the most balanced character, while Luigi can jump the highest, Princess Peach can float in the air and Toad is the fastest on the ground.
Once they are chosen, they can explore every corner of the fairy kingdom and play as a team to reach the pennant... or compete to see who can get the most points and win a shiny crown. These options make it an ideal game both for the most competitive and for those families or friends in which there is someone who wants to start playing video games in a fun way and without getting frustrated.
All this makes it a perfect first Mario game for many, but those who have accompanied the plumber throughout his 35-year history will enjoy it just the same, because in Super Mario 3D World fans will find so many references and winks throughout the levels that will practically be like playing all the Mario games in one.
The multiplayer experience that they were able to experience in New Super Mario Bros. Wii (Wii, 2009), will also be present in Super Mario 3D World . The level design will be very reminiscent of SUPER MARIO 3D LAND (Nintendo 3DS, 2011) and will revive the gold rush of New Super Mario Bros. 2 (Nintendo 3DS, 2012). And all in HD, so that we can see Mario with the best face, as we have done since New Super Mario Bros. U (Wii U, 2012).
What are the main references that we will find in the game?
The creators of Super Mario 3D World wanted players to once again enjoy the king of platforms in the same way they did in Super Mario Bros. (NES, 1985). Or that they get excited about choosing their favorite character to play as, as they did for the first time in Super Mario Bros. 2 (NES, 1988), and the love of Mario costumes, which was first seen in Super Mario Bros. 3 (NES, 1988). And, in case they missed them, they will also meet the multitude of enemies they encountered in Super Mario World (SNES, 1990).
Some of the levels in Super Mario 3D World will remind you of the tracks in Super Mario Kart (SNES, 1990). Speaking of speed, you will run into levels that you must complete in the shortest possible time, specifically, 100 seconds, as happened in New Super Luigi U. (Wii U, 2013) Nostalgics cannot help but remember Super Mario 64 (Nintendo 64 , 1996), after all, that was the first Mario in three dimensions.
With SUPER MARIO 3D WORLD they will once again play the giant Mario who first appeared in New Super Mario Bros. (Nintendo DS, 2006), and they will meet again Estela , the friend of the stars they met in Super Mario Galaxy (Wii, 2007). ).
And references aside, what's new in Super Mario 3D World?
In this title, Mario has no choice but to climb and to do so he has an infallible weapon, the new cat Mario costume . Plus, the catalog of items (and special abilities ) continues to grow.
Alongside the classic Mario Tanuki and Mario Boomerang (which, by the way, is a tribute to Mario Hammer from Super Mario Bros. 3), there are new abilities: a "super bell" will turn Mario into a cat that scratches and climbs, a box cannon in the head it will allow you to launch projectiles, and if you collect duplicerezas you will get a clone that is most practical in double attacks.
In addition, Bowser's Fury mode brings with it an unprecedented adventure that will make the plumber sweat a little. A huge Bowser unleashes his wrath and will put Mario on the ropes until he manages to assume a gigantic new cat form to face him.
Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury , the first 3D Mario adventure playable online, comes to Nintendo Switch on February 12.
