Set to launch October 20, 2023, Super Mario Bros. Wonder marks a return to 2D and in this new installment, players can touch a Wonder Flower to unlock the wonders of the world. For example, pipes can come alive or hordes of enemies can appear. Characters can even change their looks, which transforms gameplay in unpredictable ways.
