A new character appears in Dr. Mario World for a limited time, all in celebration of the franchise’s 30th anniversary.
Yes, 30 years ago today, Dr mario first released for the Famicom in Japan. Everyone’s favorite plumber underwent a career change on July 27, 1990, abandoning his usual Goomba adventures, stomping, pipe riding, saving princesses in a beautiful lab coat, and an enormously addictive drop block puzzle game! .
It is appropriate, then, that the new character in question is an 8-bit version of Dr. Mario himself. As you can see in the preview above, you will be able to get your hands on 8-bit Dr. Mario from now until the end of August, so be sure to log in for the next month or so if you want to claim him.
Dr. Mario World Players can now receive 8-bit Dr. Mario, a playable character with special abilities, as a free login bonus. Use Dr. Mario’s 8-bit magnifying glass to quickly work through the challenges with your stage mode skill. Use his versus mode ability to prevent opponents from controlling half capsules.
