Super Mario Party Jamboree is an upcoming game in the Mario Party series set to be released worldwide for the Nintendo Switch on October 17, 2024.

- Super Mario Party and Mario Party Superstars: The game’s engine, including voice clips, animations, and models, are reused from these games. Most of the playable characters return. The game is a successor to Super Mario Party, and similarly utilizes Joy-Con for certain motion-based minigames. Boards returning from previous titles is a concept first introduced in Mario Party Superstars.
