The main hook of Super Mario Odyssey is Mario’s ability to capture enemies. This is largely in part possible thanks to his new companion Cappy.

Mario may not be the only character in the game with a possessed head accessory. In new artwork included on the Super Mario Odyssey website, we’re able to see Peach with a crown that looks a whole lot like Cappy.
