The game lets you choose from familiar characters like Mario, Luigi, Peach, Daisy, Yoshi and Toad, and introduces a new Power-Up: Elephant Mario, who can use his trunk to trounce enemies. You can also team up with up to three friends locally and share the wonder together.

The game will be released on October 20, 2023 for the Nintendo Switch system. Customers can pre-order the digital version of the game from the Nintendo Official Site for $59.99 USD or buy Nintendo Switch Game Vouchers for $99.99 USD and redeem them for two eligible games, including Super Mario Bros.
