Power Moons are collectible items in Super Mario Odyssey. Equivalent to the Power Stars in Super Mario 64 (and its remake), Super Mario Galaxy, and Super Mario Galaxy 2, and Shine Sprites in Super Mario Sunshine, they can be found in the various kingdoms of the game and are used to power the Odyssey, allowing Mario to reach additional kingdoms.
History
Super Mario Odyssey
Compared to the main collectables in previous games, the number of Power Moons per kingdom varies much more significantly, each having between one and 104 Moons to collect. Additionally, due to their greatly increased quantity, Mario does not leave the area once he collects one. They can be obtained in a wide variety of ways, such as collecting a Key, five Moon Shards, a sequence of notes, planting Seeds in pots, or through the Slots minigame. Each kingdom also has a unique Power Moon available in Crazy Cap, which can be bought for 100 coins. In the post-game, these can be bought in infinite supply, although they only count towards raising the global Power Moon count. When collected, Power Moons restore the player's Health Meter, air meter (if swimming), and water (if a Gushen is captured). Afterwards, they are replaced with transparent replicas, similar to Power Stars and Shine Sprites, and give five coins instead.

A pattern of pink Power Moons appears on Peach's swimwear sarong in the Seaside Kingdom.
Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker
In the Nintendo Switch and Nintendo 3DS versions of Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker, Power Moons are found at the end of the bonus levels Secret of the Inverted Pyramid, Mine Cart Cascade Crusade, Uptown, Downtown, and Cookatiel's Sizzling Sprint, which are based off of kingdoms from Super Mario Odyssey. They function exactly the same as the Power Stars found in the regular levels.
Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
One of the cups added in the Booster Course Pass for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, the Moon Cup, is represented by a yellow Power Moon. The cup in question is part of the third wave of the DLC.
Colors
Power Moons feature a different color depending on the kingdom in which they are found. Their color also matches the color of the pole of the kingdom's Checkpoint Flag. In the Mushroom Kingdom, they take the form of Power Stars, except in 2D sections, where they simply appear as pixelated, gold-colored Power Moons instead.

Profiles
Super Mario Odyssey
- North American website bio: The Odyssey requires a steady supply of Power Moons to travel. Luckily, they seem to be plentiful-although some are harder to find than others.
