Template:Infobox Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020 is an upcoming sports game and the sixth installment in the Mario & Sonic series. It is based on the real-world 2020 Summer Olympics, which will take place in Tokyo, Japan. This is the first installment to skip an Olympic Games, as Ubisoft bought the rights to make 2018 Winter Olympics video games. It is set to release for the Nintendo Switch on November 5, 2019 in North America, and November 8, 2019 in Europe and Australia. An arcade version[1] is also set to release in 2020.[2][3] Unlike previous games, all characters seem to wear appropriate sports clothing depending on the event; additionally, the game's title places the location and year after "Olympic Games" rather than before. 2D Events are introduced, which are events from the 1964 Summer Olympics, only use button controls, and are based off older sports games.[4] They are in an 8-bit (Mario) and 16-bit (Sonic) styles. The game will include a story mode, which will take place in 2D.[5]
