Super Mario Bros. Wonder Brings New Transformations and Multiplayer to Switch for First 2D Mario in Over a Decade

Super Mario Bros. Wonder is the first new 2D Mario platformer in over a decade, set to release on October 20 for Nintendo Switch.
The game introduces new power-ups like elephant, bubble, and drill transformations, as well as magical "Wonder Flowers" that trigger trippy effects.
You can play as Mario, Luigi, Peach, and many other characters in single player or online co-op with up to 4 friends.
Online features include friend rooms, persistent online mode, races, and standees to leave messages for other players.
With creative new mechanics and evolved multiplayer, Super Mario Bros. Wonder looks to be an exciting send-off for the Switch if it's the last core Mario game.
