Super Mario Odyssey is an upcoming open world, platform game for the Nintendo Switch set to release Holiday 2017. It is the sixteenth title in the Super Mario series, the seventh original 3D Mario title, the eighth 3D Mario title overall, and the sixth 3D Mario title on a home console after Super Mario 3D World. The game takes place in the Mushroom Kingdom and other worlds in an open world-like setting, like Super Mario 64 and Super Mario Sunshine. Mario will be wearing a different hat in this game and it has eyes. A new mechanic in the game allows Mario to throw this hat as if it were a boomerang and he can also jump off of the hat in midair like a platform. Judging by posters seen in the announcement trailer, it seems that the game's story will involve, at least in part, Mario preventing a forced marriage of Princess Peach to Bowser.

Trivia

• The taxi cabs have license plates with "1981-ND" and "New Donk City", both nods to Mario's debut game year and New York City respectively.
• The red platforms that appear in the original Donkey Kong also show up in the city as actual walking paths and seem to resemble fire escapes on actual New York City buildings.
