Super Mario Odyssey – Holiday 2017 (Switch)
Mario is one of the most recognizable character in the world, and his newest game looks like it’ll be as charming and inventive as any other. Super Mario Odyssey sees the plumber go on yet another sprawling adventure, this time going to dense forests, arid deserts, and even a massive New York looking city. Odyssey returns to more of an open world kind of design, giving players huge areas to explore instead of linear platforming levels.
A new partner comes along with him on the journey in the form of a sentient hat, that also has a use in gameplay. You can throw your hat to take out enemies, or jump on it to reach high platforms. With the added power of the Switch, the series looks better than ever before. We still haven’t seen a ton of the game, but Mario is consistently a hit with players of all ages, and is sure to delight the younger crowd.
