'''''Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury''''' is an expanded [[Reissue#Ports|port]] of ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'' for the [[Nintendo Switch]], released on February 12, 2021 as part of the [[Super Mario Bros. 35th Anniversary|35th anniversary]] of ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' It features a standalone campaign known as ''Bowser's Fury'', which takes place in an open-world area called [[Lake Lapcat]] and involves [[Mario]] and [[Bowser Jr.]] cooperating to bring [[Fury Bowser]] back to an uncorrupted state. The ''Super Mario 3D World'' campaign also supports local wireless and online play with up to four players, both of which were absent from the original version.

This game was involved in two [[My Nintendo]] missions related to the [[Super Mario Bros. 35th Anniversary]], both of which were necessary to complete to enter the My Nintendo Super Mario Bros. Sweepstakes: Wave 2. The first involved purchasing the game itself (physically or digitally), and the second involved finding five hidden stickers on the official website for the game. Four of these stickers were the main playable characters in [[Cat Suit]]s, and the fifth was a [[Super Bell]].

===List of changes===

====Gameplay====
*Functionality for [[#amiibo|amiibo]] has been added.
*Multiplayer mode now supports both local wireless and [[Nintendo Switch#Nintendo Switch Online|Nintendo Switch Online]] connections. Up to two players can play on a single system in local wireless mode.
*[[Captain Toad's Adventures]] can now be played with up to four players, unlike the original game where it was single-player only. For these levels, additional players play as the [[Toad Brigade]] members, with all players being able to select one to play as before a level begins.
**Similarly to normal levels, the game ranks each player's points in multiplayer in the Captain Toad levels as well, though the winning player does not get a [[crown]].
*The characters' movement speed has been increased. All characters except Captain Toad are approximately 40% faster than in the original game.
**Certain levels such as [[Conkdor Canyon]] have had some changes to their level objects to accommodate for this change.
**On the World Map, the player's walk speed is also increased.
*[[Rosalina]]'s jump is slightly less floaty and lands slightly faster.
*The game now has four save files, rather than three. ''Bowser's Fury'' also has four separate save files.
*The yellow path that connects levels is created more quickly when a new level is unlocked.
*After exiting a level, the player regains control quicker, as the game now saves in the background.
*Cutscenes can now be skipped.
*Switching between the map, course list, and [[Stamp]] chart is now done by pressing the {{button|ns|L}} and {{button|ns|R}} buttons, rather than buttons on the screen.
*If the player dies after collecting a [[Green Star]] or a Stamp, they will keep it instead of having to collect it again. This does not apply to Captain Toad's levels.
*''[[Luigi Bros.]]'' can only be unlocked by defeating [[Meowser]] in [[The Great Tower of Bowser Land]] of [[World Bowser]]; having ''[[New Super Luigi U]]'' save data on the system through ownership of ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe]]'' no longer unlocks it from the beginning.
**There is also an option to quickly exit to the title screen from Luigi Bros., as opposed to being forced to exit to the Home Menu.
*In some areas, such as the beginning of [[Piranha Creeper Creek]], the camera will no longer zoom if the player remains idle.
**The idle zoom also does not reset if the player presses {{button|ns|y}} like in the original version.
*Due to the discontinuation of [[Miiverse]], the Stamps are now used as decorations in a new [[Snapshot Mode]], which is similar to the one seen in ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]''.
**Also due to Miiverse's discontinuation, [[Mii]]s no longer appear on the overworld or when revisiting a cleared stage.
*As in the Nintendo Switch version of ''[[Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker (Nintendo Switch / Nintendo 3DS)|Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker]]'':
**Due to the lack of a microphone on the Nintendo Switch console, [[Propeller Platform]]s have been replaced in every level where they appeared; they are replaced by [[Lift]]s in [[Captain Toad Goes Forth]] and [[Puffprod Peaks]], invisible [[Cloud Lift|clouds]] in [[Blast Block Skyway]], and [[Touchstone]]s in [[Captain Toad's Fiery Finale]].
**In TV mode, gyroscopic pointer controls replace the touchscreen controls of the Wii U version, which are activated by pressing {{button|ns|r}}. An [[emblem]] of the character controlling the pointer is present. Touchscreen controls are still used in handheld mode.
**The pause menu now features the ability to retry a course, rather than having to return to the world map to do so.
**Captain Toad's headlamp can now defeat [[Boo]]s and [[Peepa]]s, similarly to the [[Light Box]].
*As in ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]'':
**Save files are saved, loaded, and copied in the same manner.
**Characters can now [[roll]] in midair, similar to the [[dive]].
**Characters can perform a roll or [[Ground Pound#Super Mario 3D World|Ground Pound Jump]] immediately after landing from a [[Ground Pound]].
**Characters now fall through upright [[Warp Pipe]]s when performing a Ground Pound through the center from above. Similarly, characters now enter sideways Warp Pipes immediately when rolling through the center without their momentum being interrupted. The sped-up variant of the Warp Pipe sound effect from ''Odyssey'' is reused upon entering Warp Pipes these ways.
*Bouncing off of an enemy while [[Long Jump]]ing will result in the character doing another long jump, rather than a standard [[jump]].
*[[Side Somersault]]s can now be performed while walking.
*In order to hold onto other characters or grabbed objects, the player no longer has to hold {{button|ns|y}}; pressing the button again is required to throw the object or player.
**Because of this, [[Rosalina]] can no longer [[spin]] while holding an object or player.
*The range for throwing objects has increased.
*Performing [[handstand]]s atop [[tree]]s now has varying distances with directional inputs.
*When handstanding, characters turn clockwise if the player holds right, and counterclockwise if they hold left. In the original version, this was reversed.
*When [[crouch]]ed on a slope, characters will remain crouched for about one second before beginning to [[slide]] down it, rather than sliding the moment they touch the slope.
**When jumping while crouched and sliding down a slope, characters will Long Jump instead of jump.
*When jumping while facing a wall with no directional input, characters will now slide against the wall, enabling them to [[Wall Jump]]. 
*In multiplayer, entering a [[bubble]] must be performed by pressing {{button|ns|l}} and {{button|ns|r}} together instead of either one alone.
*[[Green Shell]]s can no longer be occupied idly; the shell always slides in the direction the user is facing when entered. They also move faster than in the original game.
*[[Fireball]]s move faster and cover a longer distance. They also have a slightly different angle when thrown.
*Characters can climb higher when in their [[Cat Mario|Cat forms]].
*The claw dive now continuously dives until the player touches the ground, similarly to ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]'', though it will still stop at extremely long distances.
*When crouched in a [[Tanooki Mario|Tanooki Suit]], the window to perform a [[charge jump]] during a tail spin is much smaller. Most attempts will be cancelled out by a normal charged jump instead.
**It is also more difficult to perform a Long Jump while using a tail spin, as it will usually be cancelled out with a normal Long Jump.
*Rows of [[Coin]]s appear slightly more quickly than the original game.
*It is no longer possible to jump over the [[Goal Pole]], as the character will snap to the top if they attempt to go past it.

====Aesthetic====
[[File:SM3DWBFUpdatedGraphics.png|200px|thumb|right|The updated graphics]]
*The game's graphics have been slightly updated.
*The typeface used for menus and general text has been changed from [[List of fonts#Seurat|Seurat]] to [[List of fonts#Rodin NTLG|Rodin NTLG]], which belongs to the same font family as the typeface used in ''Super Mario Odyssey'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. Super Mario 3D World's Switch port switches out the font it uses in its UI, this time using Rodin NTLG Pro DB instead of Seurat Pro B. Bowser's Fury also uses Rodin NTLG Pro DB. Both fonts were produced by Fontworks.
*On the world map, the [[Sprixie Princess]]' "Help!" text before a world's castle is completed has been changed to "HELP!".
*Button prompts are red with white characters, instead of white with red characters and outlines.
*Touch input prompts now show only a hand, instead of a hand with the Wii U [[GamePad]].
*The pause menus have been given a different appearance.
*The UI has received minor changes:
**The [[Item Storage]] has been revamped with a dark translucent circle and new button icons.
**The UI for lives and [[coin]]s lacks the "×" icon between the images and numbers.
**The interior shadows have been removed.
**The UI is smaller than in the [[Super Mario 3D World|original game]].
*[[Stamp]]s' pictures are now colored instead of black and white, and are more spread out on the stamps page.
*For the English version only, the game will always show the American spellings and namings for all subjects, rather than having different spellings and namings for certain subjects depending on the game's or console's region.
*When entering a Captain Toad's Adventures course, the loading screen is red with dark red spots instead of white with red spots.
*If the final [[Green Star]] in a [[Captain Toad]]'s Adventures course is collected as a small Toad, they will do the victory pose with their mouth opened instead of closed.
*In some shallow pools of water, such as the beginning area of [[Pipeline Lagoon]], characters will walk on the seafloor instead of floating on the surface of the water. While doing so, the camera stops following their movement.
*All characters have a brief start-up animation when beginning to walk.
*The cat scratch attack has a new animation when used underwater.
*A light source on top of the broken [[Koopa Chase]] in The Great Tower of Bowser Land does not appear.
**In the same level, the rain particle effect is slightly more visible.
*The [[Clear Pipe]] at the end of the swimming section in [[Champion's Road]] becomes invisible when within the moving body of water.
*In the original version, jingles in the following pitches play after collecting each [[Red Coin]] in a group of eight: C#, D, D#, E, F, F#, G, G. This has been changed to a more natural progression: C, C#, D, D#, E, F, F#, G.

==''Bowser's Fury''==
As a bonus addition to the port, ''Bowser's Fury'' was added as a side mode to the game, starring as its own standalone adventure.

===Story===
[[File:Bowser'sFuryPrologue.png|thumb|right|250px|Mario finds a trail of black paint just outside the castle.]]
This story begins with [[Mario]] strolling down a path in front of [[Peach's Castle]] during a bright day, near the same spot where the characters find the broken [[Clear Pipe]] at the beginning of the main story. Mario notices small puddles of black goop and darts after them, eventually stopping at a mass of black [[graffiti]] in the form of [[Shadow Mario]]'s logo. The graffiti expands, creating a portal Mario falls into, taking him to a new and unfamiliar place - [[Lake Lapcat]].

Shortly after Mario lands, he encounters [[Bowser]], who has become much larger and more powerful, known for a majority of the game as [[Fury Bowser]]. He finds a [[Cat Shine]] in the surrounding area, which clears the goop off a nearby [[Lighthouse (Bowser's Fury)|lighthouse]]. Fury Bowser is damaged, if only very slightly, by the beam of light that shines from the lighthouse. He curls into his shell and retreats to the middle of the lake. Immediately afterward, several of the first islands to be explored in the game rise out of the water.

Shortly thereafter, Mario finds a panicking [[Bowser Jr.]], who informs him more or less of what has happened. He shows Mario a picture he painted of his father and paints it black with his [[Magic Paintbrush]], suggesting that this began with him painting his father and the black paint corrupting Bowser, similarly to the events of ''[[Paper Mario: Color Splash]]''. Bowser Jr. explains that both he and his father are in trouble, reluctantly asking Mario to help him but clarifying this would not happen under normal circumstances. Mario agrees to do so, with Bowser Jr. nearby at all times for the rest of his adventure.

For much of the remainder of the game, Mario must simply recover Cat Shines from available islands. After several minutes of gameplay, Fury Bowser rises completely out of the lake and goes on a rampage for some time before returning to his passive state. Mario may stop his rampage by collecting a Cat Shine and lighting the corresponding lighthouse. After collecting certain amounts of Cat Shines, Mario unlocks [[Giga Bell]]s, allowing him to transform into [[Giga Cat Mario]] during Fury Bowser's next rampage. During this time, a massive amount of Fury Bowser's health can be drained, with Mario being required to do this at least once throughout his entire adventure. Every time Fury Bowser's health is completely drained, he sinks into the lake, causing several more islands to rise out of the water before this process repeats. A minimum of fifty Cat Shines are required to defeat Fury Bowser and finish the game.

The final time he is defeated, Fury Bowser expels all of the black paint inside of him before slightly shrinking and getting blown out of the water. Drained of black paint, he then turns into [[Giant Bowser]], serving as the true final boss of the game. Summoning the three Giga Bells, he fuses them together into a crystal ball. With the help of [[Plessie]], Mario must launch the crystal ball into Bowser multiple times before he is finally defeated.

[[File:Bowser'sFuryVictoryPose.png|thumb|right|250px|Mario and the kittens strike a victory pose in synchronization.]]
Finally back to normal, Bowser falls from the sky and lands near Bowser Jr. and a few colorful [[kitten]]s. The former two both become excited; however, after Bowser notices Mario, now in his [[Cat Mario]] form, he becomes angered and attempts to attack him as Bowser Jr. holds him back. Once he is dragged away, Bowser Jr. pauses and threatens Mario himself before leaving. Mario shrugs before being nuzzled by the kittens. They jump and freeze in the air, as it is revealed the ground on which the scene took place was actually the back of Giga Cat Plessie, the form Plessie took after collecting all three Giga Bells simultaneously. The credits then roll, featuring various paintings by Bowser Jr. that depict the story from his perspective.

The first time the player resumes the game after this, Bowser Jr. tells Mario that he was relaxing with Bowser on the lake until the latter turned back into Fury Bowser, requesting that Mario collect more Cat Shines to help restore peace again. Bowser Jr. then grants Mario the ability to warp to islands he has already visited to thank him for his help, and marks the locations of new Cat Shines on the map. From this point on, Plessie permanently remains as Cat Plessie, and gains the ability to carry kittens on its back. 

If all one hundred Cat Shines are collected and Giant Bowser is then defeated again, an additional painting by Bowser Jr. is shown after the credits; following this, Mario's [[Cat Mario|Cat]] form changes to look like Giga Cat Mario (albeit much smaller), and Bowser Jr. becomes a cat variant of himself. Fury Bowser's appearance is also different, as the orange sections of his spikes, belly and eyebrows all turn white. However, all of these changes are purely visual.

===Gameplay===
The game revolves around freeing every island from the black goop that [[Fury Bowser]] is covered in by recovering [[Cat Shine]]s from corrupted lighthouses. At random time intervals, Fury Bowser emerges nearby from the [[Fury Sun]]. When this happens, the weather becomes stormy, and he terrorizes the surroundings of the island with large beams of fire and meteors falling from the sky. Additionally, he drops many [[Fury Stake|spikes]] from the sky around the islands, which can be used as platforms. All [[kitten]]s and [[calico cat parent]]s on Lake Lapcat also [[Fury Cat|become corrupted]] and start attacking Mario. Bowser will fall back into slumber either after a brief period of time or if a Cat Shine is collected. 

[[Giga Bell]]s are situated in three different areas of [[Lake Lapcat]], also sleeping due to the black goop, and can only be activated by collecting a certain amount of Cat Shines. When this happens, [[Mario]] can touch the bell while Fury Bowser is rampaging to become [[Giga Cat Mario]], who is then able to fight Fury Bowser and force him into slumber, allowing Mario access to more islands. Lake Lapcat is a vast open-world setting that is gradually unlocked as more locations are freed from black goop, extending the sandbox concept of ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]''. Mario can run around the island, climb up lighthouses, and go between islands quickly by riding [[Plessie]], who teleports around the water in order to stay close to Mario. Every island makes usage of Mario's different power-ups and abilities. Throughout all islands, there are a variety of gameplay concepts, objects, and enemies from the main ''Super Mario 3D World'' game.

===Playable characters===

|-style="background:gold" align=center
!Character
!Description
|-
|align=center|[[File:SM3DWBF Mario Solo Art.png|150x150px]]<br>'''[[Mario]]'''
|The main playable character in ''Bowser's Fury'', and the only one to return from the playable characters in ''Super Mario 3D World''. He controls identically to how he does in the main campaign, and can utilize power-ups to traverse Lake Lapcat and collect Cat Shines.
|-
|align=center|[[File:SM3DWBF Bowser Jr Solo Art.png|150x150px]]<br>'''[[Bowser Jr.]]'''
|Bowser Jr. reluctantly helps Mario collect Cat Shines in an attempt to save his father from corruption. In single-player, he is an AI-controlled helper; the player can choose to have him help a little, a lot, or not at all. Alternatively, he can be controlled by a second player in two-player mode. 

Bowser Jr. cannot use power-ups, but instead can fly freely in his [[Junior Clown Car]], and use his [[Magic Paintbrush]] to attack enemies or reveal items from special [[graffiti]] on walls. Additionally, he can use a [[Ground Pound]] attack to defeat enemies from above, and he produces items the player selects from the [[Item Storage]].

In single-player, the player can use the cursor (with touch or gyro controls) to send Bowser Jr. to any location on the screen by selecting it. He will then swing his paintbrush once he reaches his destination. By doing this, the player can have Bowser Jr. collect items such as [[Cat Shine Shard]]s and [[coin]]s for them, as he will collect these items on contact. The only item Bowser Jr. cannot interact with that Mario can are Cat Shines, which must be contacted by Mario to register as collected. If Bowser Jr. moves too far away from Mario in single-player, he will automatically teleport back to Mario; in multiplayer, the second player can do this manually. 

After all 100 Cat Shines are collected and the final boss is then beaten again, Bowser Jr. transforms into a cat variation of himself, with his [[Junior Clown Car]] also gaining whiskers, though these are merely aesthetic changes.

|align=center|[[File:SM3DWBF Cats Art.png|150x150px]]<br>'''[[Kitten]]s'''
|The residents of [[Lake Lapcat]]. If [[Mario]] approaches them while not in his [[Cat Mario|Cat]] form, then they will flee; however, if he is in one of these forms, then they will be affectionate towards him and follow him. If Mario picks one up, then it will scratch in front of itself, which can be used to attack enemies. If Mario mounts [[Plessie]] while holding a kitten after defeating the final boss at least once, then it will ride alongside him. If a kitten comes into contact with water or [[lava]], then it will instantly teleport back to its original location. When [[Fury Bowser]] is awake, kittens become [[Fury Cat|corrupted]] and attack Mario.
|-
|align=center|[[File:Mothercalicocat.png|150x150px]]<br>'''{{conjectural|[[Calico cat parent]]}}'''
|A larger cat who is a parent of calico kittens, which have gone missing. There are three of them, one for each [[Giga Bell]]. If Mario brings all of the kittens back to their parent, he will be rewarded with a [[Cat Shine]]. Like the kittens, the parents become corrupted when Fury Bowser attacks.
|-
|align=center|[[File:SM3DWBF Plessie.png|150x150px]]<br>[[File:Catplessie.png|150x150px]]<br>'''[[Plessie]] / Cat Plessie'''
|Plessie from the ''Super Mario 3D World'' adventure reappears in this mode, where it has the ability to dive, which allows it to avoid low-hanging obstacles, or perform a high jump if it jumps right after diving. After collecting the three Giga Bells at the end of the final boss battle, Plessie becomes Giga Cat Plessie, and permanently stays as Cat Plessie after the main story is completed.
|-
|align=center|[[File:SM3DWBF Toad Brigade.png|200x200px]]<br>'''[[Toad Brigade]]'''
|After completing the main story, [[Toadette]] appears next to a tent on [[Fur Step Island]] and asks Mario and Bowser Jr. to find [[Captain Toad]], [[Hint Toad]], [[Banktoad]], and [[Yellow Toad (Toad Brigade)|Yellow Toad]] around Lake Lapcat, who will each give a Cat Shine when found. Each Toad Brigade member will then celebrate at the camp with Toadette.

|-
|align=center|[[File:Corruptcat.png|150x150px]]<br>'''{{conjectural|[[Fury Cat]]s}}'''
|All [[kitten]]s and [[calico cat parent]]s become corrupted when [[Fury Bowser]] begins rampaging. They chase [[Mario]] upon sight and can damage him upon contact. They can be stunned if Mario or [[Bowser Jr.]] attack them, and revert to normal when Fury Bowser stops rampaging.
|-
|align=center|[[File:Furyshadowluigi.png|150x150px]]<br>'''[[Fury Shadow]]s'''
|Dark, goop-covered enemies resembling [[Luigi]] that Mario must chase to get a [[Cat Shine]], much like [[Shadow Mario]] in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]''. They must be hit three times to defeat them, and every time they are hit, they transform into a spiky black goop ball and dash away.
|}

====Cat variations====
While ''Bowser's Fury'' does not introduce many new enemies, the enemies that come from ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'' are seen with cat-like features, such as cat ears, fur, paws, and a tail, though unlike the [[Cat Goomba]]s in ''Super Mario 3D World'', these cat appearances are only aesthetic changes, without gaining any differing abilities (the only exceptions to this are [[Cat Bullet Bill]]s, which still home in on the player like their ''Super Mario 3D World'' counterparts). As such, the Cat Goombas in ''Bowser's Fury'' behave like regular Goombas, and have their standard brown coloring.

===Locations===
[[Lake Lapcat]] is split into three main areas, each represented by a [[Giga Bell]]. Each Giga Bell is surrounded by four different islands, with each island containing a lighthouse that is covered in goop. By collecting the first Cat Shine of the island, the goop is removed and the lighthouse's light gets rid of the goop nearby, though after Fury Bowser attacks, they become covered in goop again. 

There are a total of 100 [[Cat Shine]]s in the game, some of which can only be collected after beating the final boss. 60 of them come from the 12 main islands which each contain five Cat Shines, with three being standard missions, one being earned by finding the five [[Cat Shine Shard]]s hidden around the island, and another earned by having Fury Bowser break some [[Fury Block]]s to reveal it. When all five Cat Shines of an island are collected, a [[Cat Flinger]] appears atop that island's lighthouse, with a cat variation of Mario's [[Goal Pole]] flag attached to it. 35 of the Cat Shines come from [[Lake Lapcat]] itself, which contains a multitude of Cat Shines that are separately counted from each other. The last five come from a special golden island called the [[Lucky Isle]], which appears post-game in one of five locations during a [[Fury Bowser]] rampage, but disappears when Fury Bowser goes to sleep.

Fury Bowser must be fought a total of five times to complete the story. To do so, [[Mario]] will need to use one of the three available Giga Bells, though after each fight with Fury Bowser, the number of Cat Shines needed to activate the Giga Bells increases, from 5 to 15 to 20 to 40 and finally to 50 Cat Shines. When the Giga Bell is used to defeat Fury Bowser, the next Giga Bell area will open up, revealing new islands.

On a side note, while [[Fur Step Island]] is the first location visited in the game, only the first Cat Shine can be obtained at first, while the other four can only be obtained once the main story is completed.

If Mario collects a Cat Shine on an island, leaves and returns at a later point, the layout will often be slightly changed to accommodate a newly available mission. This often involves new enemies, though the structure itself may change, as is the case for [[Clawswipe Colosseum]].

====Table of locations====
<sup>*</sup> indicates that a Cat Shine is only available after seeing the credits once.

|Three [[Giga Bell]]s (giant versions of [[Super Bell]]s) are present in each region of [[Lake Lapcat]]. They are initially covered in goop, and require a certain amount of [[Cat Shine]]s to uncorrupt them and use them. When used, [[Mario]] transforms into Giga Cat Mario, a giant version of [[Cat Mario]] that resembles a ''{{wp|komainu}}''. This giant form enables him to fight Fury Bowser directly.

When all 100 Cat Shines are collected and the final boss is then defeated again, the appearance of Cat Mario changes to resemble Giga Cat Mario, though this is merely aesthetic and does not change Cat Mario's abilities. This change does not appear in ''Super Mario 3D World''.

|A switch that must be [[Ground Pound]]ed by Mario to activate. When activated, the switch temporarily reveals a path leading to a [[Cat Shine]], which must be collected before the time limit (usually 20 seconds) expires. It may also create a battle arena surrounding it, where Mario and [[Bowser Jr.]] must defeat every enemy for a Cat Shine.

|Large platforms created by [[Fury Bowser]] during his rampages and plunged into either the ground or walls. Various objects such as [[Mushroom Trampoline]]s may be on them, and they can sometimes help Mario traverse the area more quickly. They vanish when Fury Bowser stops rampaging. [[Giga Cat Mario]] can pick these up and use them to damage Fury Bowser, while [[Giant Bowser]] launches them as attacks.

|An item that Mario can climb and perform a handstand atop, similarly to [[Tree]]s, before aiming and bouncing off a long distance. If he lands on ground after this bounce, then he will automatically begin [[dash]]ing. After all five of the Cat Shines on an island are collected, one of these appears atop that island's lighthouse, with a golden flag resembling a [[Goal Pole]] flag with cat ears and Mario's emblem on it.

===Differences from ''Super Mario 3D World''===
*''Bowser's Fury'' runs at a variable resolution in TV mode, which can drop to as low as 1280x720. 
**In handheld mode, the game runs at 30 frames per second.
*There are no lives in this mode. Instead, a random power-up is given for every 100 [[coin]]s collected. The player loses 50 coins upon dying, similarly to ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]''.
*The HUD for the coin count is placed in the bottom-left corner of the screen rather than the top-left.
*Instead of the [[Item Storage]] holding one item, [[Mario]] can store a maximum of five [[Super Mushroom]]s, five [[Super Bell]]s, five [[Fire Flower]]s, five [[Super Leaf|Super Leaves]], five [[Boomerang Flower]]s, and five [[Lucky Bell]]s. The [[Lucky Bell]] icon does not appear in the Item Storage until the player has stored at least one.
*The game's camera is fully controllable by the player.
*The game only supports 1-2 players instead of 1-4 players, and does not support online or local wireless play. 
*Mario is the only playable character in single-player. In multiplayer, the first player must play as Mario and the second must play as Bowser Jr., who appears exclusively in the ''Bowser's Fury'' campaign. 
*Mario has full 360-degree movement, instead of being restricted to eight directions.
*[[Plessie]] can turn around or stop moving, and can be dismounted at any time.
*Plessie has the ability to dive underwater before jumping. There are also new visual effects for its high jump, which can be performed in single-player instead of requiring multiple players to jump simultaneously.

==amiibo==
''Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury'' features [[amiibo]] support for all amiibo figures, with [[Cat Mario]] and Cat [[Princess Peach|Peach]] amiibo figures launching alongside the game. Notably, it is the first ''Mario'' game that originated on the [[Wii U]] to have amiibo support exclusively for a [[Nintendo Switch]] [[Reissue#Ports|port]].

The player is granted an item depending on which amiibo is scanned:
*Scanning the Cat Mario amiibo produces an [[Invincibility Bell]] that turns Mario into [[White Cat Mario]].
*Scanning the Cat Peach amiibo produces a [[Super Bell]], [[Fire Flower]], [[Boomerang Flower]], [[Super Leaf]], [[Super Mushroom]], [[Lucky Bell]], [[Super Star]], [[Invincibility Leaf]], or [[Invincibility Bell]].
*Scanning any [[Bowser]] amiibo produces a Super Star in ''Super Mario 3D World'' and makes [[Fury Bowser]] appear in ''Bowser's Fury''.
*Scanning the [[Bowser Jr.]] amiibo produces a Super Star in ''Super Mario 3D World'' and makes a shockwave appear that knocks out blocks and enemies in ''Bowser's Fury''.
*Scanning any other amiibo of characters in the ''Super Mario'' series produces a Super Star in both modes.
*Scanning any amiibo outside of the ''Super Mario'' series produces a [[1-Up Mushroom]] in ''Super Mario 3D World'' and a [[Super Mushroom]] in ''Bowser's Fury''.

==Pre-release and unused content==
===Initial box art===
[[File:Box RP-Super Mario 3D World Bowser's Fury.png|thumb|200x200px|The pre-release version of the North American boxart]]
Because [[Bowser Jr.]] and [[Fury Bowser]] had not yet been confirmed to appear in ''Bowser's Fury'', the ''Bowser's Fury'' section of the box art initially only contained the logo, while the section also took up a smaller portion of the box. Because of that, [[Cat Mario|Cat]] [[Luigi]] appears on the pre-release box, but not on the final box.

===Giga Mushroom===
[[File:SM3DW+BF Giga Mushroom.png|thumb|200px|left|The Giga Mushroom's model.]]
An unused power-up can be found in the game's data, named <tt>KinokoGiga</tt>, which translates to '''Giga Mushroom'''. It is an angry and larger variation of the [[Mega Mushroom]], with a color-inverted cap. As no major changes or new power-ups were added to ''Super Mario 3D World'' alone, the Giga Mushroom was most likely intended for ''Bowser's Fury''.

Though its specific purpose is not clear, it transforms Mario into a gigantic version of [[Super Mario (form)|Super Mario]], an identical state to when Giga Cat Mario takes damage. However, the Giga Mushroom's effect is under a time limit. While it may appear to be a more extreme version of the Mega Mushroom, one key difference is that Mario can still use other power-ups while in this form.

==Update history==

==Glitches==
{{main|List of Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury glitches}}
*In ''Bowser's Fury'', some {{conjectural|Cat Flingers}} allow Mario to handstand on them from far below their actual model.

==Staff==
{{main|List of Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury staff}}
Although the credits list the staff in alphabetical order without specifying their roles, as in ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]'' and ''Super Mario 3D World'', the list includes several staff members from [[Nintendo Software Technology Corporation]], the developer of the ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong (series)|Mario vs. Donkey Kong]]'' series.

==Reception==
===Critical response===
Critical reception of ''Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury'' was mostly positive, with praise for the gameplay and creativity of both the original campaign and ''Bowser's Fury'', but criticism towards the stability of online multiplayer, the repetition of Fury Bowser's appearances and battles, and the performance of ''Bowser's Fury'' in handheld mode.

Cam Shea of {{wp|IGN}} rated the game 7/10, noting that ''Super Mario 3D World'' retained "the entertainment value from the fact that each level is typically built around a unique gameplay twist", but said that "the gameplay actually feels like a bit of an awkward fit for the presentation". They also called multiplayer "chaotic and fun, but also haphazard", and said that "3D World’s levels feel much more appropriate for one – or possibly two – players". When discussing ''Bowser's Fury'', they stated it was "quite cool seeing how the world is reinvented whenever Bowser blows his top", but they "did get a little tired of the constant interruptions", saying that "it quickly becomes apparent that fighting Bowser is an extremely repetitive way to restore the world".

Chris Scullion of {{wp|Gamer Network|Nintendo Life}} gave it a 10/10, saying the main campaign was "absolutely ''packed'' with ideas", but had issues with online multiplayer, explaining that "at the best of times there was some subtle lag (nothing major but enough to mess up the timing of some jumps) and at the worst of times there was more stuttering". They described ''Bowser's Fury'' as "sort of like what you’d get if you took a Super Mario 64 or Odyssey, shrunk its worlds down to tiny islands and put them all in a single large area, with no loading times or ‘hub world’ to separate them". They called the addition a "fun little side adventure", but noted that  "there isn’t enough variety in the Shine missions" and that "the performance... also leaves a bit to be desired".

Steve Watts of {{wp|GameSpot}} rated the game 9/10, calling both campaigns "a candy confection of fine-tuned platforming that marries some of the best elements of 2D and 3D Mario in two very different ways". They stated that online multiplayer was "a nice but not strictly necessary addition to the core game" that had "only the occasional moment of stutter". They called ''Bowser's Fury'' "the [''Mario''] series at its most experimental", but questioned "if this is the kind of experiment that would work outside the narrow parameters of Bowser's Fury and live on in other Mario games". Despite "occasional frustrations", they concluded that it was "a short-but-sweet and extremely zany curiosity".

|10/10
|align="left"|''"Super Mario 3D World remains one of the better linear Mario games, and anyone playing it for the first time is in for an absolute treat. Add to that the curious bonus adventure that is Bowser's Fury and you've got a package that provides great value for money. It isn't without its flaws, but most of these (online multiplayer, repetitive missions in Bowser's Fury) relate to the new additions; the main game itself remains as pure and perfect as it was seven years ago. Had it just been Super Mario 3D World on its own, we'd be thoroughly recommending it anyway; Bowser's Fury is just the cherry on top."''

|9/10
|align="left"|''"Put together, Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury is a spectacular package. Super Mario 3D World is an absolute joy of classic platforming excellence, and this is the best version of it thanks to some well-calibrated improvements. Bowser's Fury is peculiar and less polished, but it dares to poke fun at its own oddities and it has a wild creative streak. The two share thematic similarities, but more importantly, they work hand-in-hand to show the full extent of versatility in what a Mario game can be."''

==References to other games==
*''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'': In ''Bowser's Fury'', the loading screen features ''Super Mario Bros.''-styled sprites of [[Small Mario|Small]] [[Mario]] (in his modern colors), [[Bowser Jr.]], [[Fury Bowser|Fury]] [[Bowser]], and [[Plessie]].
*''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'': A portion of the music of [[Scamper Shores]] references the start of this game's overworld theme.
*''[[Super Mario World]]'': The music that plays when Bowser emerges from the Fury Sun is an arrangement of Bowser's intro in this game's final battle. [[Plessie Medal]]s slightly resemble [[Dragon Coin]]s.
*''[[Super Mario 64]]'': The mission "Bully the [[Cat Mario|Cat]] [[Bully|Bullies]]" is a reference to the mission "[[Bully the Bullies]]" in both the title and the theme of knocking Bullies into lava. There are also missions where Mario must return calico [[kitten]]s to their [[Calico cat parent|parents]], similar to the mission "[[Li'l Penguin Lost]]". Bowser laughs when Mario dies, just like in this game.
*''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'': Bowser Jr. is seen wielding his [[Magic Paintbrush]] from this game. Mario encounters [[Shadow Mario]]'s M graffiti on the ground during the intro cutscene. The way Mario chases the [[Fury Shadow]]s to get a [[Cat Shine]] is similar to how he has to chase Shadow Mario to get a [[Shine Sprite]] in this game. Likewise, Cat Shines themselves seem to reference Shine Sprites in name and function.
*''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'': Part of the ending theme of ''Bowser's Fury'' includes a short excerpt from "[[List of Super Mario Galaxy media#Boss Music|Enter Bowser Jr.!]]".
*''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]'': Cat [[Boom Boom]]'s second fight is similar to Boom Boom's fight in {{world-link|s4|airship|Special 4-Airship}}, as they both take place on top of retractable spikes.
*''[[Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker]]'': [[Hint Toad]], [[Banktoad]], and [[Yellow Toad]] are extra characters in the Captain Toad levels, wearing their outfits from this game. Additionally, their level clear animation is similar to their level clear animation from the Toad Brigade levels in the [[Bonus Episode]]. [[Toadette]] also appears in ''Bowser's Fury'' using her appearance from this game.
**[[Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker (Nintendo 3DS / Nintendo Switch)|Nintendo Switch version]]: Instead of using touch controls, the player uses motion controls to control a cursor, similar to this game.
<!--Do not include Paper Mario: Color Splash here, as that is not an intentional reference and very likely coincidental.-->
*''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]'': The structure of ''Bowser's Fury'' greatly resembles that of this game. Snapshot Mode and the map feature return from this game, and characters can [[Ground Pound|ground pound]] through upright pipes and roll into sideways pipes to enter them faster. Additionally, Mario's animation when he collects a Cat Shine resembles the animation when he collects a non-story-related [[Power Moon]] in this game.

==References in other games==
*''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'': The [[Calico Parafoil]]'s design is a reference to the calico cats in ''Bowser's Fury''.
*''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'': Giga Cat Mario, Fury Bowser and kittens appear as spirits, first becoming available during a spirit board event themed after ''Bowser's Fury''.
