Nintendo Breaks Silence on New Super Mario Game
Key Points:
- Nintendo has confirmed a follow-up to Super Mario Odyssey will be released during the current console generation, though no specific release date was provided.
- Shigeru Miyamoto acknowledged the Mario series' absence since Odyssey's 2017 release and expressed excitement about the new game's development.
- The next Super Mario game is not expected to launch this year or next, with speculation suggesting a release possibly in the late 2020s or early 2030s.
- Unlike previous Mario titles that launched with new consoles, the follow-up was delayed as Nintendo prioritized Donkey Kong Bonanza instead.
- Fans should anticipate a wait for the new Super Mario game, but Nintendo remains committed to delivering a major title within the Nintendo Switch 2 generation.
