When Super Mario 3D World makes the leap from Wii U to the Nintendo Switch in February, it will add more than just the Bowser’s Fury bonus adventure. The switch port Super Mario 3D World will also feature some welcome news, including online cooperative play, a photo mode and faster movement for Mario, Luigi, Peach and Toad.
In a new video overview trailer for Super Mario 3D World + Bowser Fury, Nintendo detailed what’s new in the 3D platform game. The online game for up to four friends is new to Super Mario 3D World, and requires a Nintendo Switch Online subscription. Instant mode will allow players to pause the action, take photos, apply visual filters and decorate the world with collectible stamps. And Nintendo fans who played 3D World on Wii U you’ll notice that Mario and friends move considerably faster than in 2013.
Nintendo also delves into details about Bowser’s Fury, revealing that a second player can take on the role of Bowser Jr. for two player cooperative action. We also get some tips on the story of why Bowser is so angry and big, and we find Giga Bell that makes Cat Mario super saiyan in Bowser’s Fury.
Super Mario 3D World + Bowser Fury will arrive on the Nintendo Switch on February 12th. The original Super Mario 3D World was released in 2013 for the Wii U. The four-player cooperative platform game was one of the best games of that year (and one of the best Super Mario games of all time).
