The Art of Super Mario Odyssey

Dark Horse has put out a trailer for the localized version of The Art of Super Mario Odyssey, which finally arrives in the west on Tuesday. View it below.

Here’s a random little tidbit about Super Mario Odyssey. The dog you encounter in the game’s various worlds actually has a connection to another Nintendo title. As it turns out, the model is a direct port of the Shiba Inu model from Nintendogs + Cats.

Twitter user CometMedal shared the factoid on Twitter. You can see the Super Mario Odyssey on the left below, while the Nintendogs + Cats version is on the right.

Yesterday it was made known that Zelda: Breath of the Wild’s latest update improved loading times. The same can be officially said of Super Mario Odyssey, too.

GameXplain takes a look at how loading times in the 3D platformer improved with version 1.3.0. It seems as though all areas have been improved, ranging from the initial load to moving between Kingdoms.

A short while ago, Super Mario Odyssey’s latest update went live and added in its VR mode. Check out some footage below.

Super Mario Odyssey’s latest update has gone live. Nintendo has just started distribution of version 1.3.0.

Like Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Super Mario Odyssey now supports the Nintendo Labo VR Kit. As part of this, you can use the Toy-Con VR Goggles for mini-missions in the Cap, Seaside, and Luncheon Kingdoms.

The full patch notes are as follows:

Super Mario Odyssey will be updated next week to support the Nintendo Labo VR Kit. We know that it’ll be adding in a bit of extra content, including “a bit-sized bonus experience” where you’ll be collecting music notes and Coins in the Cap, Seaside, and Luncheon Kingdoms.

Even if you don’t have the VR Kit, it turns out you’ll still be able to play the new mode. The one advantage VR provides is giving players a full 360° view, which you can’t have otherwise.

Last week, Nintendo announced that Super Mario Odyssey and Zelda: Breath of the Wild will be updated later this month to support the Labo VR Kit. We now have a little bit of additional information on the functionality in Super Mario Odyssey plus new screenshots.

One of the things we heard is that you can collect music notes, but Nintendo didn’t really elaborate on the details. We’re now hearing that doing so lets you get instruments, and you can then give them to other characters to play. Also, there’s apparently a performance at the venue in New Donk City, which you can view with VR.

Below are the latest screenshots:
