The game will retain the classic gameplay of the Hudson Soft entries, since the previous Super Mario Party game.

Modes[]

The game features the standard board game mode of the previous Mario Party games. Players roll a dice and roam around the board. They can buy and store up to three items and use them to their advantage. The goal is to have the most stars with mechanics changing between boards.

The new online mode is the Koopathalon mode which has 20 players compete in various minigames to progress along the board. The goal is complete a certain amount of laps around the board with success in minigames moving the player along.
