Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition

GungHo Online Entertainment has opened a website for the just-announced Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition. Access it here.

On the page, we have confirmation that Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition is coming to Japan on April 29. You can get a small look at the boxart above.

Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition is coming to the 3DS, GungHo Online Entertainment announced today. The new game was revealed just a short while ago during the company’s “New Games Presentation”.

Shigeru Miyamoto took the stage and stated that he began noticing Puzzle & Dragons after seeing Nintendo developers playing it. He was also struck by the work ethic of the people at GungHo.

Eventually, discussions led to last year’s 3DS title Puzzle & Dragons Z, though Nintendo wanted to do more. Since they felt Mario making a guest character wouldn’t be enough for the audience of that franchise, Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition was created.

Below are the first gameplay details:

– Puzzle PRG
– Begins in the Mushroom Kingdom
– Bowser has harvested the power of a mysterious “Drop” that suddenly appeared
– Princess Peach kidnapped once again
– Up to Mario to save her
– Mario will do battle in the style of Puzzle & Dragons puzzle battles, befriending other Mario series characters on the way
– Supports StreetPass
– Local multiplayer functionality

Check out some screengrabs from the debut trailer below. We’ll post the full video once it’s available.
