Nintendo has released a new 30-minute gameplay video of Super Mario Odyssey during its E3 2017 livestream. The game launches in October.
In Super Mario Odyssey Mario has to keep Princess Peach from Bowser's claws, who want to marry the princess. To do this, Mario has to travel through a number of different locations, including New Donk City, a copy of the non-fictional city of New York.
The game features typical movement mechanics, such as wall jumping, diving and long jumping, as well a new mechanic related to Mario's cap. The cap comes alive, can be used as a frisbee to grab items, but also to get hard-to-reach areas.
Earlier today we received word that the game will feature co-op multiplayer functionality. Whether this means that the second player will only be able to help out the first player as seen in Super Mario Galaxy or if the second player will be able to control a separate character is still unknown.
Super Mario Odyssey launches on October 27, 2017, for Nintendo Switch.

This comment has been removed. Yep, same. I just hope they have a bundle for around € 300 available by then.
