Super Mario RPG is an upcoming Nintendo Switch remake of the 1996 game Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars. It was first announced during the June 21, 2023 Nintendo Direct, and is planned to be released worldwide on November 17, 2023. The remake reimagines the original game in full 3D graphics, mostly maintaining the original characters' designs and proportions.[2] The game's soundtrack has also been rearranged with orchestrated music by the original game's composer, Yoko Shimomura.[5]

Differences

Gameplay changes

  • Enemy attacks indicate if they cannot be blocked.[2]
  • Many of the cutscenes have been given more dynamic camera angles. Additionally, bosses have short scenes before battles begin.[2]
  • In battles, a percentage and chain number appears. The percentage increases by successfully performing consecutive action commands.[6] The chain's function is yet to be specified.[2]
  • A "!" graphic indicates when to press the button to perform an action command.[2]

Text changes and localization

  • Princess Peach is referred to as such in English rather than "Princess Toadstool", matching her Japanese name as has been standard for the franchise since Super Mario 64, the following Super Mario franchise game released in 1996.[2]

Graphical changes

  • The sign for Mario's Pad now has "Mario House" written on it instead of "Pipe House".[2]
  • Mario has visible animations while swimming over the water surface.[2]
  • Mario takes off his hat instead of doing a peace sign.[2]
  • Toad is now the only one of the short retainers in Mushroom Castle to wear a blue vest; the others now wear red.[2]
  • Mushroom Castle in-game now has a blue roof design to match its appearance in the original game's end credits.[2]
  • Bowser's Keep now takes design elements from the incarnation of Bowser's Castle in Mario Kart 8, namely the banners and the Bowser emblem still having a highway shield shape.
  • Magikoopa now appears normal-sized in battle, rather than being larger than Bowser.[2]
  • Characters not unique to the game, such as Princess Peach, Gobies, and Sky Troopas, inherit characteristics from their modern designs.[2]
    • Yoshis are more closely designed to their modern proportions and color schemes: Yoshi wears orange shoes, Yellow Yoshis wear green shoes, and Red Yoshis have a redder hue, with spikes and saddles colored red instead of blue. Boshi, on the other hand, retains his distinct attire but no longer wears half shoes along with Croco.[2]
  • Environments now extend outward past the map edges instead of ending in a void, with the exception of interiors.[2]
  • Valentina's hit animations are changed to have less exaggerated movement on her breasts.
  • Valentina's drink now has a slice of lime in it instead of a cherry, making it resemble an actual margarita drink and better reflecting her Japanese name.
