There are a lot of games that are coming out on the Switch this year, but it’s hard to think of one that is more anticipated than Super Mario Odyssey. The Mario series has always been one of Nintendo’s biggest and best franchises, with each main release (and even many of its spin-offs) being critically acclaimed. Now we know when the next adventure will begin.
Nintendo announced today during their E3 2017 stream that the game will launch for the Switch this October, which is even a little earlier than most were expecting. It’s not like fans are going to be complaining about that, as they want to get this game inside their Switch consoles ASAP. This news was revealed in a brand new trailer for the game, which you can check out for yourself below.

The game is described as a being “massive, globe-trotting 3D adventure” that has Mario trying to rescue Princess Peach from Bowser’s wedding plans. Mario will have plenty of new powers and abilities thanks to his new hat, which will make this an adventure unlike any other that has come before it. The trailer shows Mario taking control of things like cars and dinosaurs, which seems like it will be end up being pretty crazy. There are also plenty of really unique locations for a Mario game, from a bustling city to wide open fields.
It’s great to see that the game is still on track to launch this year, and even launching earlier than the previously-suggested November release month. Mario is a fantastic series that is always a must-have for whatever console it is releasing on, and this one looks to be no different. If you’ve got a Switch, then you’ll need to be sure that you’re ready pick the game up this October.
