'''''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.]]'' The ''Super Mario 3D World'' campaign now supports local wireless and online play with up to four players, both of which were absent from the original version. There is also a standalone campaign named ''Bowser's Fury'', which takes place in an open-world area called [[Lake Lapcat]]. After [[Bowser Jr.]] paints [[Bowser]] with black [[goop]], the latter turns into [[Fury Bowser]]. [[Mario]] must cooperate with Bowser Jr. to collect [[Cat Shine]]s and use their power to activate [[Lighthouse (Bowser's Fury)|lighthouses]] and [[Giga Bell]]s, both of which enable them to gradually rid Fury Bowser and Lake Lapcat of goop.

|align=left|When playing [[Captain Toad's Adventures]] levels in multiplayer, any additional players control members of the Toad Brigade, who all share the same attributes as [[Captain Toad]]. Before a stage starts, all players can select from Captain Toad, [[Hint Toad]], [[Banktoad]], and [[Yellow Toad (Toad Brigade)|Yellow Toad]].

{|border="1" cellpadding="2" style="text-align:left;border-collapse:collapse;margin-bottom:5px;width:100%;"

Several enhancements are made to the overall gameplay compared to the original Wii U release. For example, all characters except Captain Toad move approximately 40% faster than in the original game, in both levels and the world map. Cutscenes that serve as the intermissions between gameplay are now able to be skipped. Various basic character movements and abilities have been enhanced: for example, characters bouncing off of an enemy while [[Long Jump]]ing now automatically perform another Long Jump, rather than a standard [[jump]], and characters jumping while facing a wall with no directional input now slide against the wall, enabling them to [[Wall Jump]]. Additionally, [[Side Somersault]]s are now able to be performed while walking. When carrying objects or other characters, players no longer are required to hold {{button|ns|y}}; pressing the button again is instead required to throw the object or character. Due to this change, [[Rosalina]] can no longer [[spin]] while holding an object or character. Throwing distance for objects and characters has also been increased. Performing handstands atop [[tree]]s has varying distances with directional inputs. When handstanding, characters turn clockwise if the player holds right, and counterclockwise if they hold left, which is reversed compared to the original version. When [[crouch]]ed on a slope, characters 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 now perform a Long Jump instead of a regular jump. Rosalina has some tweaks to her gameplay: her jump is slightly less floaty and she lands slightly faster.

To accommodate for the change in character speed, some levels, such as [[Conkdor Canyon]], have had minor alterations to the objects within them. Some general improvements include changing behaviors and properties of various objects and camera controls. Rows of [[coin]]s triggered to appear by collecting certain lone coins finish appearing faster than in the original game. The camera no longer zooms if the player remains idle in some areas, such as the beginning of [[Piranha Creeper Creek]], and the idle zoom does not reset if the player presses {{button|ns|y}} as it does in the original release. If players lose a life after collecting a [[Green Star]] or a [[Stamp]], they keep it instead of having to collect it again; this does not apply to Captain Toad's levels, however. The [[Goal Pole]] can no longer be jumped over, as characters now snap to the top if they attempt to pass it.

 

Power-ups have also received improvements and alterations to their functionality. [[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. The [[Cat Mario|Cat forms]] now allow characters to climb higher. Additionally, the form's claw dive continuously dives until the character touches the ground, similarly to ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]'', though it does stop eventually at extremely long distances. For characters in the [[Tanooki Mario|Tanooki Suit]], the window to perform a [[charge jump]] while crouched during a tail spin is now much smaller, and most attempts are 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 is usually cancelled with a normal Long Jump.

In the world map, the yellow path that connects levels is created more quickly when a new level is unlocked. After exiting a level, the player regains control of the characters quicker, as the game now saves in the background. 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.

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. In these modes, entering a [[bubble]] to rendezvous with other players can now only be performed by pressing {{button|ns|l}} and {{button|ns|r}} together instead of either one alone. [[Captain Toad's Adventures]] can now be played with up to four players, unlike in the original release where these levels were 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]].

Improvements and alterations introduced in ''[[Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker (Nintendo Switch / Nintendo 3DS)|Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker]]'' are retained in the Captain Toad levels for this game. Captain Toad's headlamp can now defeat [[Boo]]s and [[Peepa]]s, similarly to the [[Light Box]]. The pause menu now features the ability to retry a course, rather than having to return to the world map to do so. In TV mode, gyroscopic pointer controls replace the touchscreen controls of the Wii U version, which are activated by pressing {{button|ns|r}}, and an [[emblem]] of the character controlling the pointer is present. 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]].  

Functionality for [[#amiibo|amiibo]] has been added. A complete list of functionalities for them can be found in the corresponding [[#amiibo|section.]]

Due to the lack of [[Miiverse]] on the Nintendo Switch, [[Mii]]s no longer appear on the overworld nor when revisiting a cleared stage, and Stamps are now used as decorations for the new [[Snapshot Mode]], which is similar to the one seen in ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]''.

 

The user interface has received minor changes. The [[Item Storage]] has been revamped with a dark translucent circle and new button icons. The interior shadows and the "×" icon between the images and numbers in the UI for lives and coins have also been removed. The pause menus have a different interface, with the UI being smaller than in the original ''Super Mario 3D World''.

Some of the colors have been changed compared to the original game. Button prompts are red with white characters, as opposed to white with red characters and outlines. When entering a Captain Toad's Adventures level, the loading screen is red with dark red spots instead of white with red spots. The images of Stamps are now colored, rather than being black and white, and they are more spread out on the Stamps page.

A few visibility effects have been changed. A light source on top of the broken [[Koopa Chase]] in [[The Great Tower of Bowser Land]] has been removed, and the rain particle effect in said level is now slightly more visible. At the end of the swimming section in [[Champion's Road]], the [[Clear Pipe]] becomes invisible 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.

 

 

During a bright and clear day, [[Mario]] walks down a path in front of [[Peach's Castle]], near the same location where he found the broken [[Clear Pipe]] at the beginning of the main campaign. He notices small puddles of black [[goop]] on the path and follows them, eventually stopping at a mass of black graffiti shaped like [[Shadow Mario]]'s logo from ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]''. The graffiti expands to create a portal that Mario falls through, transporting him to [[Lake Lapcat]], where a rainstorm is occurring.

Shortly after Mario lands, he encounters [[Bowser]], who has become a larger and more powerful form known as [[Fury Bowser]]. Mario finds a [[Cat Shine]] in the surrounding area, which clears the goop off of a nearby [[Lighthouse (Bowser's Fury)|lighthouse]]. Fury Bowser is blinded by the beam of light that shines from the lighthouse, and retreats into the [[Fury Sun]] in the middle of Lake Lapcat. Immediately afterward, several islands emerge from the water.

 

[[File:MarioVoidBowser'sFury.png|thumb|left|200px||Mario falling into the portal]]

After Fury Bowser retreats, the storm clears and Mario finds a panicking [[Bowser Jr.]], who explains why Bowser transformed. He shows Mario a picture he painted of his father and paints it black with his [[Magic Paintbrush]], showing that Bowser Jr. was the one who corrupted Bowser. He realizes 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. joining him for the rest of the adventure.

 

[[File:Bowser'sFuryVictoryPose.png|thumb|right|200px|Mario and the kittens striking victory poses]]

 

 

 

Extending the sandbox concept of ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]'', Lake Lapcat is a vast open-world setting, with more islands being gradually unlocked as Fury Bowser is defeated by Giga Cat Mario. Mario can run around the island, climb up lighthouses, and go between islands quickly by riding [[Plessie]], who teleports around the water 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'' campaign.

 

 

A minimum of 50 Cat Shines is required to finish the campaign. When 47 Cat Shines are collected, Fury Bowser begins a rampage that does not end until the player collects 50 Cat Shines, awakens the Giga Bells, and defeats Fury Bowser for the final time. Bowser then transforms into Giant Bowser, and Mario must ride Plessie across the entire lake to chase him down. While avoiding Giant Bowser's attacks, Mario can launch off of ramps with [[Dash Panel]]s on them to hit and break the crystal ball protecting the three Giga Bells.

 

 

If all one hundred Cat Shines are collected and Giant Bowser is defeated again, an additional painting by Bowser Jr. is shown after the credits; following this, Mario's Cat Suit changes to look like a much smaller version of Giga Cat Mario, and Bowser Jr. and his [[Junior Clown Car]] become cat versions of themselves. Fury Bowser's appearance also changes, as the orange sections of his spikes, belly, and eyebrows all turn white. However, all of these changes are purely visual.

====Controls====

 

 

|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 Shine]]s.

While [[Fur Step Island]] is the first location visited in the campaign, only the first Cat Shine can be obtained before completing the main story. A large amount of black goop surrounds the area before this point, and an invisible barrier is present to prevent any attempt to bypass the goop. After the main story is completed and the player opens the save file again from the title screen, gameplay resumes on Fur Step Island, which is now clear of goop.

 

 

{|border="1" cellpadding="2" style="text-align:left;border-collapse:collapse;margin-bottom:5px;width:100%;"

*Make the [[Lighthouse (Bowser's Fury)|Lighthouse]] Shine

 

|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 and also grants immunity to goop.

 

 

 

As of the 1.1.0. patch of the game, if Mario collects 100 [[coin]]s before leaving [[Fur Step Island]], only Super Mushrooms are rewarded, rather than any power-up.

 

|align=left|A bronze bell that transforms Mario into a special variation of Cat Mario with a red collar and a bronze bell resembling the Lucky Bell. This allows him to turn into an invincible golden statue called Lucky Cat Mario when [[Ground Pound]]ing, which is similar to Tanooki Mario's [[Statue Mario|Statue form]]. In this state, he collects coins while falling, and defeats most enemies that cannot otherwise be defeated.

|align=left|A boomerang-shaped flower that turns Mario into Boomerang Mario, which lets him throw [[boomerang]]s to collect items or defeat enemies. The form strongly resembles [[Boomerang Bro]]s., but the colors of its boomerangs are inverted (red with a white stripe rather than white with a red stripe).

|align=left|A brown leaf that makes Mario become Tanooki Mario, allowing him to float through the air for a short time and whip enemies with his tail.

|align=center|[[File:Invincibility Leaf Artwork - Super Mario 3D World.png|x75px]]<br>'''[[Invincibility Leaf]]'''

|align=left|A white and yellow striped leaf that makes Mario become White Tanooki Mario, which gives him the abilities of Tanooki Mario and permanent invincibility (except to black goop). Due to no [[Assist Block]]s appearing in Bowser's Fury, no Invincibility Leaves can be found naturally in Lake Lapcat. However, if the player scans the [[Cat Mario|Cat]] [[Princess Peach|Peach]] amiibo, an Invincibility Leaf sometimes appears.

|align=center|[[File:Super Star Artwork - Super Mario 3D World.png|x75px]]<br>'''[[Super Star]]'''

 

 

|Coins generated from [[P-Switch]]es, four of which are found during four different missions titled "Blue Coin Bustle". After one set of them is collected, another set appears, and once all sets are collected, a Cat Shine appears.

 

|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. Giant versions of Fury Spikes are created during the fight with Fury Bowser. [[Giga Cat Mario]] can pick these up and use them to damage Fury Bowser, while [[Giant Bowser]] launches them as attacks. The golden variations, which resemble [[Moon Rock]]s, produce several coins when broken.

|Platforms that release and retract metal spikes from their holes after a set time. They are only found during the "Final Bout with Cat [[Boom Boom]]" mission, where twenty-five of them cover Cat Boom Boom's battle arena and release their spikes in columns.

|Blocks that change the direction of Switchboards, or reveal new paths for them to take.

 

*There are no lives in this campaign. Instead, a random power-up is given for every 100 coins collected. The player loses 50 coins upon dying, similarly to ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]''.

*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.

*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.

''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 a different 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 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 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''.

[[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.

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.<ref>Smashy (February 26, 2021).

In ''Bowser's Fury'', some Spring Poles allow Mario to handstand on them from far below their actual model.

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".
