Rather than being limited to moving left and right, we can see Mario jumping and avoiding Bullet Bills.
Of course, with Odyssey being a platformer, there is even more potential here for this gameplay feature. At the 1:03 mark, you’ll see Mario in his 2D form running merged into the wall, much like Link and his Wall Merge mechanic in A Link Between Worlds. There was also another detail that caught my eye during the trailer, and it reminded me of a past adventure of a certain Hylian hero.
Did you catch the Super Mario Odyssey trailer during today’s Nintendo Spotlight stream? It looked incredible! A Tyrannosaurus, a ghostly top hat and a mustachioed frog were among many of the fun and bizarre elements of the game, and I am beyond excited for Mario’s latest title.
