Following the lineage of Mario and the Nintendo mascot’s ventures into other releases that dramatically altered the core gameplay for the series’ main installments, Nintendo has went to different avenues to offer niché entries that stick for other audiences. Primarily, we witness that in the form of sports titles. Ranging from baseball, soccer, and most recently tennis with 2018’s Mario Tennis Aces.
But leading forward, many fans start to tally any potentially new athletic pastimes that the Nintendo plumber will take on next. Although he is persistent in doing most sports, alike in Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games, it is certain that Nintendo will once again focus one one singular sport for this coming game.
During Wednesday’s Nintendo Direct, the video game giant unveiled Mario Golf: Super Rush. You can watch the announcement trailer in the video below:
“Hit the green with up to four players locally* or online** and golf with familiar Mushroom Kingdom characters. Modes range from Standard Golf to the energetic Speed Golf and an RPG-like golf adventure in story mode,” the description reads on the Nintendo eShop. “Intuitive motion or button controls, a shot gauge that adapts to the curve of the course, and other new features make it easy for both new players and seasoned pros to drive and putt with power.”
Previously, many did inherit the idea of a potential return to 2005’s Super Mario Strikers for a brief period. The idea spruced following Nintendo’s acquisition for the game’s developer, Next Level Games. You can read the full report by heading here.
