Super Mario Odyssey

Super Mario Odyssey is the latest entry in the Super Mario series and takes a return to a sandbox approach like Super Mario 64, to explore levels inspired by real world locations. It will launch on the Nintendo Switch on October 27, 2017.

Plot
The plot seems to be about Bowser stealing Princess Peach and attempting to marry her. He travels across the world and Mario chases after him in his flying hat airship. Mario comes across Cappy, who possesses his hat to help him fight Bowser. Bowser enlists the help of Broodals to help plan his wedding and beat Mario.

Each level is a part in preparation for Bowser's wedding. For instance, the Wooded Kingdom is holding a greenhouse where Bowser is growing the bouquet.

Gameplay
It is known that Mario will retain his moves from the previous 3D games, among them the Long Jump, the Roll, the Ground Pound, and the Dive, the latter of which hasn't been in the series since Super Mario 64 DS. He will also be wearing Cappy, which he can throw like a boomerang, and he can also jump off of it in mid-air as if it were a platform. However, Cappy's main feature is turning Mario into whatever Mario throws him on including enemies.

Coins have changed wildly in this version. Regular coins are now used to buy costumes and items at Crazy Cap stores. Each Kingdom also has 100 of their own purple currency
