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. First announced during the Nintendo Direct on June 18, 2024, it is the eighteenth (twenty-sixth, including arcade games) installment in the Mario Party series, the thirteenth released on a home console, and the third released for the Nintendo Switch. Serving as a successor to Super Mario Party, albeit with gameplay mostly modeled after Mario Party Superstars, the game features both new and returning boards, in addition to over 110 minigames, and an expansive roster of 22 playable characters, including newcomers Ninji and Pauline.[3]
A playable demo of the game was available at the Nintendo booth during PAX West 2024 prior to its release, from August 30 to September 2, 2024.[9] A second demo is available to play in-stores starting on October 4, 2024.[10]
Game modes
Mario Party
Like with its predecessor, Super Mario Party Jamboree features the traditional Mario Party gameplay as the main mode of the game; players traverse a game board to collect coins in order to purchase Stars. The gameplay is overall more similar to Mario Party Superstars than Super Mario Party, sharing many of the same rules and mechanics, such as the dice rolling between one and ten and the occurrence of Bonus Minigames, where the coins won are doubled. Various new mechanics are introduced, such as a revamped version of the ally mechanic from Super Mario Party. On certain turns, a Jamboree Buddy will appear on the board. This buddy can be one of a number of characters from the playable roster, each having their own special effect. On top of this, all of them share the effect of causing every board action to happen twice, such as gaining or losing coins, buying items or Stars, or even Boos and Bowser Spaces. In order to obtain the Jamboree Buddy, players must reach them on the board, which will start a Showdown Minigame, a unique minigame themed after the buddy. The player who reaches the buddy first will gain a slight advantage over the other players during the minigame. The winner of the minigame will receive the Jamboree Buddy. When obtained, the Jamboree Buddy lasts for three turns. Other players may also steal the buddy by passing by the player who currently owns them.[11] If no player reaches the Jamboree Buddy within 3 turns, they will be removed from the board.[12]
Additionally, either Party Rules or Pro Rules can be selected for a game. With Pro Rules on, some luck-based elements will be adjusted, such as announcing the Bonus Star before the game begins and letting each player choose an item to start with.[13]
Minigame Bay
- Main article: Minigame Bay
Minigame Bay is the main minigame mode for this game, taking place on and around an island. In addition to being able to play any unlocked minigame at any time, there are multiple side modes that focus on playing minigames.[14]
Experience Party
Experience Party (Japanese: 体感パーティ Taikan Pāti) is a mode featuring three motion-controlled sub-modes where players work together.[15]
Paratroopa Flight School
Paratroopa Flight School is a motion controlled mode where players must flap their arms like wings to control their character, who is wearing Koopa Paratroopa wings. There are three different modes to play: Sky Battle, Koopa Paratroopa Taxi, and Free Flight. In Sky Battle, two players compete to try to gather as many Para-Biddybuds as possible within a time limit. Players can sneak from behind to steal Para-Biddybuds from each other. In Koopa Paratroopa Taxi, two players must cooperate to carry a third character to a certain location on the map.[16]
Toad's Item Factory
In Toad's Item Factory, four players work together to solve various puzzles to guide a ball across obstacles by moving the Joy-Con in various ways in order to reach the end. There are 30 different levels to play that get increasingly harder.[16]
Rhythm Kitchen
Rhythm Kitchen is a rhythm-based mode similar to Sound Stage from Super Mario Party. Like in that mode, players play various rhythm-based minigames back-to-back. All of the minigames in this mode are themed after cooking. Instead of competing for the highest score like in the aforementioned mode, the players must instead work together to get the highest rating from three Yoshi judges.[16]
Bowser Challenges
Bowser Challenges is a mode featuring two online sub-modes focused on large amounts of players playing at once, both prominently featuring Impostor Bowser.[17] These modes can also be played locally, but every player must use their own Nintendo Switch system.[12]
Koopathlon
Returning from Mario Party: Star Rush is the Coinathlon mode, now revamped into a new mode called Koopathlon. Compared to the original mode, there are now 20 players racing at once, rather than only four. At the end of every third minigame, a 20-player Bowser-themed Survivathon minigame starts, where Impostor Bowser attacks all 20 players at once. If the player loses this minigame, they are set back 10-30 spaces depending on their current placement; however, if they win, they will be given an item. Whoever is able to finish the race first wins.[18]
Bowser Kaboom Squad
Bowser Kaboom Squad is a co-op mode where 8 players are pitted against Impostor Bowser on a city-themed map. In order to fight against Impostor Bowser, players must grab bombs and throw them into cannons found across the map. These bombs are contained in crates that must be broken by attacking them. Once 20 bombs are placed into a cannon, the cannon will fire at Impostor Bowser, causing him to lose health. Impostor Bowser will attack the players as they attempt to stop him. Being defeated by him will cause the player to get trapped in a Bubble. Another player must pop the bubble to revive them. After a certain amount of time, an 8-player co-op minigame is played, similar to the co-op minigames from Super Mario Party. Winning the minigame will reward the team with items that can be used to help defeat Impostor Bowser. Afterwards, another round starts and the cycle continues for 5 rounds. Once Impostor Bowser's health is depleted, a Star appears, which is then used by the players to become invincible and defeat Impostor Bowser in one final stretch where the players must mash to attack Impostor Bowser as he attempts to fight back.[19]
Party-Planner Trek
In this single-player mode, the player travels around boards as a single character talking to NPCs and fulfilling goals for them to gain Mini Stars. Some NPCs will give the player Mini Stars if they clear a minigame, rewarding two per minigame. On Goomba Lagoon, once the player collects at least 30 Mini Stars, the yellow Toad will give them a souvenir and direct them to the next map, though before he does so, the sky suddenly turns dark. This is the first Mario Party game since Mario Party: The Top 100 to feature Mini Stars as collectibles.[20][12]
Characters
Playable
Super Mario Party Jamboree features 22 playable characters,[21] the largest number out of any game in the Mario Party series. In addition to the return of all characters from Mario Party Superstars and most from Super Mario Party (excluding Diddy Kong, Hammer Bro, Dry Bones, and Pom Pom), this game marks the first playable appearance in the series of Toad and Toadette since Mario Party: Star Rush and Spike since Mario Party 10. In addition, Ninji and Pauline make their debut as playable characters in the series. Every character also now has their own unique "turn start" jingle.
Although most characters are playable in every mode in the game, Bowser cannot be played as in either the Koopathlon or Bowser's Kaboom Squad modes.[22]

Jamboree Buddies
10 of the 22 playable characters also appear as Jamboree Buddies. By running into one, a Showdown minigame is initiated to recruit them into the winner's team, with the player who initiated the minigame gaining a slight advantage. Each Jamboree Buddy has their unique ability on the board, and doubles everything that happens to the player, both good and bad. In free play and Party-Planner Trek, the character themselves can partake in their own Showdown minigame, with a grayed-out version of the character taking their place as an NPC.[23]

Minigames
- Main article: List of Super Mario Party Jamboree minigames
There are 112 minigames set to appear, the highest amount of minigames in a Mario Party title to date. Some minigames are brand-new, while others return from past Mario Party games. In addition to the usual minigame categories such as 4-player, 1 vs. 3, 2 vs. 2, Duel, and Item minigames, Rhythm minigames return from Super Mario Party, while 4-player Boss Battle minigames return for the first time since Mario Party: Star Rush, along with the Koopathlon and Survivathon minigames functioning similar to the Coin Chaos and Bowser's Gauntlet minigames from that game respectively. New categories of minigames include 8-player minigames, where eight characters must work together to clear a task, not dissimilar to the Team and Co-op minigames from Super Mario Party, and Showdown minigames, where players compete in order to gain a Jamboree Buddy.
Motion-controlled minigames return from Super Mario Party, requiring a Joy-Con, and are not available when playing online. However, button-controlled minigames can still be played using a Pro Controller or while using a Nintendo Switch Lite.[59] The confirmed minigames are listed below.[3]

Descriptions
- North American Nintendo eShop
Join a jamboree jam-packed with more minigames than any Mario Party™ game to date!
Gather your friends, pick a board, and have a Mario party. Choose your character, roll some dice, and compete in an assortment of minigames to see who can get the most stars. From running through merry-go-rounds to motion-control minigolf, there are seven boards and over 110 minigames to play!
Go with the flow in Goomba Lagoon, search the mall for stars in Rainbow Galleria, or revisit the classics of Western Land and Mario's Rainbow Castle. With 22 playable characters, including newcomers Pauline and Ninji, there's something for every kind of partygoer!
Take the fun online in Koopathlon and Bowser Kaboom Squad
Race across the party board in Koopathlon, a series-first 20-player online competition to see who can rack up the highest scores in minigames like the fast-paced Lane Change. The higher your score in each round, the faster you'll get to the goal. If cooperative play is more your style, take on an Impostor Bowser in the 8-player online Bowser Kaboom Squad mode. You can also play the standard Mario Party mode with friends, family, and others online!
Party online on us— 3-month Nintendo Switch Online Individual Membership is included!
You'll need an Internet connection and a Nintendo Switch Online membership to play in online modes, but don't worry if you're not a current Nintendo Switch Online member. If you pre-order or purchase the game prior to March 31, 2025 at 11:59 p.m. PT , you'll receive a Nintendo eShop code for a 3-month Nintendo Switch Online Individual Membership (not valid with Nintendo Switch Online Family or Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack memberships )! The code, which never expires, will come either in a packed-in pamphlet (while supplies last) if you purchased the physical version, or by email if you purchased digitally.
