Summary
TheSuper Mariofranchise has no shortage of spinoffs. Some of theseMariospinoffs are as popular as the mainline platforming series, getting regular releases and raking in millions of players at a time, likeMario Kart, while some spinoffs are still popular, but appear much less frequently, likeMario Strikers. TheMario Partyspinoff seriesfinds itself closer to the former camp, with a new mainline release dropping at least once every few years since 1998, andSuper Mario Party Jamboreeis the next up to bat.
Set for an June 14, 2025 release,Super Mario Party Jamboreeis set to be the biggestMario Partyto date, featuring more playable characters and minigames than any entry in series history. But there’s even more hiding underMario Party Jamboree’s surface, and fans can already get a good picture of what they can expect in October.
What Fans Can Expect From Super Mario Party Jamboree
Super Mario Party Jamboree Has More Playable Characters Than Ever Before
On launch,Super Mario Party Jamboreewill feature a total of 21 playable characters, which is more than any previousMario Partyentry. The full playable roster inSuper Mario Party Jamboreeis as follows:
Super Mario Party Jamboree’s playable roster is filled with all of the usual franchise staples fans would expect to see, such as Mario, Luigi, Peach, Daisy, and Yoshi, along with plenty of newerMario Partyadditions like Bowser Jr. and Spike. TheSuper Mario Bros. 2enemy Ninjiis also making itsMario Partydebut inSuper Mario Party Jamboree, coming hot off the heels of its relatively recent appearance in last year’sSuper Mario Bros. Wonder.
Super Mario Party Jamboree Will Launch With 7 Boards
Super Mario Party Jamboreeisn’t skimping out when it comes to game boards either. One of the biggest criticisms ofthe last fewMario Partyentrieshas been their lack of new boards, withSuper Mario Partyhaving just four, andMario Party Superstarsonly featuring remakes of previous entries' boards.Super Mario Party Jamboreeoffers an ideal compromise, delivering five all-new game boards, and two remakes, bringing the game’s total number of boards up to seven:
All five ofSuper Mario Party Jamboree’s new game boardslook suitably bright and colorful, with plenty of distinct gimmicks to set them apart from those that have come before. Goomba Lagoon, for instance, features a tide mechanic that sees certain spaces get blocked by the rising waves, while Mega Wiggler’s Tree Party allows players to hop on the back of the eponymous creature to access new pathways.Super Mario Party Jamboree’s two returning boards look like great remakes as well, withMario Party 1’s Mario’s Rainbow Castle board now featuring 3D textures and layering effects.
Super Mario Party Jamboree Will Feature More Minigames Than Any Previous Entry
The final – and maybe the largest – cherry on top ofSuper Mario Party Jamboree’s cake is its 110 minigames. Just like its playable characters, this is the highest number of minigames that have ever appeared in aMario Partytitle at launch. These 110 minigames will be split up into the usual categories, such as Free-for-all, 2v2, 1v3, and Team.Motion-controlled minigameswill also be making a return inJamboree, though players will have the option to disable them if they wish.
