Nintendo announces “Super Mario Odyssey” for the Nintendo Switch

Nintendo’s switching things up (see what I did there?) with the announcement of a new gaming experience coming to us via the Nintendo Switch. And it involves the Italian plumber with the moustache. The famous one.

Super Mario Odyssey is set to join the slew of 3D platformers in the Nintendo roster, but one key difference as seen in this trailer is the environment. World 1-1 aesthetics are now replaced with real life cityscapes and scenery. Let’s hope he doesn’t get hit by a cab.

Description reads:

Super Mario Odyssey sees Mario leave the Mushroom Kingdom to go on a new sandbox-style journey! Coming to Nintendo Switch Holiday 2017.

Super Mario Odyssey is slated for release late 2017
