The '''Warp Zone''' is a hidden area that acts as a kind of teleportation system, connecting many [[world]]s to one place. For the most part, they are sectioned-off areas containing [[Warp Pipe]]s, although ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' featured [[Warp Zone (Super Mario Bros. 3)|an entire island]] as its Warp Zone. Instead of Warp Zones, ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' and two of its sequels feature [[Warp Cannon]]s accessed from secret exits in certain [[level]]s, each of which would launch [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] to a later world. Warp Zones were inspired by the arcade version of ''{{iw|nwiki|Excitebike}}'' in which the player can choose any track to begin playing from.<ref>{{file link|Mario Day 2023 NSO.jpg}}</ref>

Certain [[jar]]s within [[Subspace]] in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'' contain Subspace Warps, which automatically warp players to later worlds, without the use of an intermediary Warp Zone. In some episodes of ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!]]'', [[Bowser|King Koopa]] would similarly use potions to create portals or doors to make his escape.

In ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', the zone is a sectioned-off area containing [[Warp Pipe|pipes]] to different levels. There are three of them; one located in [[World 1-2 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 1-2]] and two in [[World 4-2 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 4-2]]. The first gives the choice to warp to [[World 2 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 2]], [[World 3 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 3]], or [[World 4 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 4]], and is located behind the pipe that leads to the [[Goal Pole|flagpole]]. In World 4-2, the zone behind the final pipe leads to [[World 5 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 5]] only. Instead, the player must find a secret [[Beanstalk]] in order to warp to [[World 6 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 6]], [[World 7 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 7]], or [[World 8 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 8]] (in ''[[VS. Super Mario Bros.]]'', the Warp Zone in that area only leads to World 6, meaning that there is no way for the player to skip all the way to World 8). The first Warp Zone also lets players perform the famous [[Minus World]] glitch.

In ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', the Warp Zone is an island that can only be accessed via [[Recorder|Magic Whistle]], and is treated as the game's World 9. Like other games' Warp Zones, it connects to the other kingdoms of the [[Mushroom World]], although the zone itself is not completely interconnected; to access the top row, the player must warp from World 1; to access the middle row, the player must warp from Worlds 2-6; and to access the last row, the player must warp from Worlds 7-9 (using a Magic Whistle while already in the Warp Zone will send the player directly to the last row to enter World 8).

While traversing the [[Valley of Bowser]], [[Mario]], [[Luigi]] and [[Yoshi]] find a natural spring. Mario and Yoshi decide to dive into it to rest, while Luigi checks a sign, which says that it is a Warp Zone to other games. He tries to warn his friends, but Mario and Yoshi have already dove deep into the pond and find themselves in ''{{iw|zeldawiki|The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past}}'', with Mario armed with the [[Kinoko Sword]] and Yoshi in a [[Shield Yoshi|shield form]]. Luigi is able to communicate to them, see them, and pass objects to them from the ''[[Super Mario World]]'' side. He tells them that they should be looking for another Warp Zone situated somewhere in {{iw|zeldawiki|Hyrule}}. After facing several enemies of ''{{iw|zeldawiki|The Legend of Zelda (Series)|The Legend of Zelda}}'' series, Mario and Yoshi find Hyrule's Warp Zone and dive into it, but they end up in ''{{iw|FZeroWiki|F-Zero}}''.

The Warp Zone later reappears when Mario leads the [[Bomber Bill]] into the mysterious pipe. When the Bomber Bill enters the zone, it explodes, causing a shockwave of a massive interdimensional collapse that pulls objects from the [[Mushroom Kingdom]] into [[Brooklyn]].
