Famitsu has reviewed Super Mario Odyssey in their latest issue 1507. It was given a combined score of a 39/40, with scores of a 10/10/9/10. Mario Odyssey is the latest installment in the Mario franchise and Nintendo’s latest AAA title they are releasing on the Nintendo Switch. The Nintendo Switch is experiencing a flurry of AAA titles this year, with Breath of the Wild, Splatoon 2, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Pokken Tournament DX, and even Xenoblade Chronicles 2 releasing on the Switch this year. That doesn’t even take into account the third-party titles coming to the system.
Super Mario Odyssey is one of the most anticipated titles of the year and many believe it has a chance of dethroning Zelda as game of the year. Will it? We’ll have a better idea on October 27 when Mario Odyssey releases.
