Home > Super Mario Run Gets a Release Date
Originally published on Nintendo Castle.
Nintendo’s biggest mascot is finally going mobile. Last month, Nintendo finally announced the release date of Super Mario Run for iOS to be December 15, 2016, after it was first revealed back in September with a release date of Holiday 2016. In the game, Mario continuously runs, and you must control when Mario jumps, including how he jumps, and the height of his jump. This is a change in the Mario series, as you usually entirely control him. There are also two other modes including Kingdom Builder to build you own Mushroom Kingdom, and Toad Rally, which is sort of like ghost mode in Mario Kart.
You can download the game for free when it releases, but you can only play a few of the levels. In order to play the full game, you must make a one-time purchase of $9.99 as an in-app purchase. While the iOS version is releasing this month, an Android version is apparently in the works, coming next year. Will you be getting Super Mario Run?
