Nintendo Offers A Closer Look At Paper Mario: The Origami King

As we head into the weekend, Nintendo has released a new video giving fans a much closer look into Paper Mario: The Origami King. This new video shows off a lot more of the game as you are given the gist of what the adventure holds in store. Considering the length and how much detail is here just a month before release, we're guessing this would have been one of the centerpiece videos to the Nintendo Direct feed for June had E3 2020 actually gone forward. This video has over five minutes of content showing off everything (that they chose to reveal) about how this new RPG adventure will work as you now have to "unfold" the plot of King Olly and prevent this version of the Mushroom Kingdom from being "reshaped". Enjoy the trailer as the game will be released on Nintendo Switch on July 17th, 2020.

King Olly has moved Peach's Castle in his devious plot to fold the world! Luckily, Mario's ability to wield mighty paper techniques will put a crinkle in those plans. Mario's journey to untie the massive streamers binding the castle will lead him through vast regions full of surprises. He'll visit underground sewers, raging rapids, an ancient ruin, a ninja-filled mansion and a lively desert oasis that will quench anyone's thirst for excitement. A cast of off-the-wall characters adds an extra dimension to the expedition, too. There's a Bob-omb who's lost his memory, the Toad professor of ancient history, and Kamek, the Magikoopa who's always got something up his sleeve. Mario will find assistance along the way from friends like Olivia, the good-natured sister of King Olly, and even Bowser himself. Some of these unlikely allies might help out in a battle when needed!
