We reported on the rumor a few months ago that Breath of the Wild 2 would be a 2021 release while Nintendo would focus on Paper Mario and Mario 3D remakes for 2020. This morning, Nintendo confirmed a new Paper Mario is releasing later this year.
Titled “Paper Mario : The Origami King”, the game releases on July 17th and looks like it has all the Mario charm you would expect.
Our Take
The Paper Mario games have traditionally been a lot of fun and we truly like what the trailer is showing for this one. Surprisingly, it releases a lot sooner than we would have thought and on the same day as Ghost of Tsushima for the PS4. All of a sudden, summer is a focus for major releases!
