Nintendo has a surprise for Mario fans. The publisher is working on a new Paper Mario game, and it will be released for the Nintendo Switch soon. Paper Mario: The Origami King opens July 17 with an all-new story and characters for $ 60. And Nintendo revealed the game in a two-minute trailer, which you can see by clicking play above.
Paper Mario: The Origami King brings back the two-dimensional plumber from previous games. This time, however, he is fighting “an origami threat,” according to Nintendo. And that threat has already surpassed family territory, including Princess Peach’s castle. The trailer opens with an origami peach that threatens Mario by demanding that it double as a sign of respect. When Mario refuses, she throws him down a well.
But this game not only has a new enemy. Mario will also have a new partner named Olivia. She is a good piece of origami, and here I thought all origami was evil! But Mario and Olivia will also get help from the Toads and even a dubbed version of Bowser.
On the gameplay side, Mario will also acquire the 1,000 folding arms ability. This gives the hero extendable arms to solve puzzles and more.
Paper Mario: The Origami King is the “traditional Paper Mario” game that I referenced in my March report on Nintendo’s release schedule. Nintendo released the ad suddenly and out of Direct because the company is struggling with the transition from work from home.
But Nintendo obviously has games in progress. Intelligent Systems only supervised the production of Tecmo Koei’s Fire Emblem: Three Houses because he was working on this. Other Nintendo studios will also have games ready for release soon. That includes Mario’s 3D remasters, but it should also include Pikmin 3 Deluxe.
