Customer Ratings & Reviews

Mario games never gets old. It keeps the same essence than its ancestors but better. A new mission, new worlds, new abilities. Its beautiful, its fun, I can play for hours and don't get bored. I really recommend this game if you get a Nintendo Switch. Mario games are always a warranty of fun and this is a basic one.

This game blew me away. Taking inspiration from older Mario titles, it puts everything together into a stunning modern Mario title that feels fresh and familiar at the same time. Mario Odyssey has it all: plenty of content, ultra responsive gameplay controls, wonderful music, and just plain fun. An absolute joy to play.

Hands down a must-play if you own a Nintendo Switch. Takes full advantage of the Switch's hardware in both its gameplay and presentation. Even if you suck at platformers, give this a chance.

Super fun, great gfx, and tons to explore and do..

We purchased this game for my 9 year-old daughter as a gift. (She had asked for it after she had tried it out in-store on the demo Nintendo Switch.) She played it with her 19 year-old big sister as soon as she unwrapped it and they both had a great time. Definitely recommend!

I am an adult who plays this game, with younger brother that play this game. When I first saw the trailers for this game, I felt a little indifferent. I loved N64's Super Mario 64, GameCube's Super Mario Sunshine, and Wii's Super Mario Galaxy (my favorite). I was let down by Super Mario Galaxy 2. I thought they were trying too hard to make it like the original Galaxy. My boyfriend was very excited about the game, so I pre-ordered it. I picked it up the day it came out and we immediately started playing. My first thoughts were WOW. The music, the graphics, the controls, everything. It was new and fresh and unlike any other Mario game, while maintaining the same wonderful colors, art, familiar movements, loveable characters, etc. of the other Mario games. It takes what you know and love and grows from it. It's a brand new adventure! Definitely up there with my favorites! We enjoy it, just as my younger brothers (5-8 age range) enjoy it on their Switch. The ability to take such a fantastic game on the go also blows me away. Seriously, if you are contemplating getting this game, DO IT!

I never really cared for Mario but this game made me really appreciate it so much. Such a fun game I’ve played it 3-4 times and can’t wait for the follow up

This is a great open world and it comes with my favorite game character Mario! Not too easy but not too hard, this game was fun enough that no matter how many times I fell or died, it was still worth playing again and again. Super glad I bought this game. I can tell it's gonna be a keeper.

First let me say this game is not perfect as very few rarely are. This is a great game and holds to the nostalgia of the series as it should. New mechanics with old buddies make this a fun game for sure. It’s biggest positive is that I can play it and kids can play it alike. It’s a good pickup and play sort of game.

absolute must play if you own a switch or switch 2! in credible game

One of my favorite games on the switch. It reminds me of Mario 64 with better graphics and a cool twist by bringing you back to the nes days in certain parts. I like the collection system of the game like that of the n64 version of stars. Very clever and hopefully we will get another Mario out of this switch.

One of if not the best Mario game on the switch !!!

Absolutely the best hat-based Mario game ever made.

It's been a long time since Nintendo has released a Mario game that emphasized exploration over linear challenge courses. Mario Galaxy was a fantastic game but fell short in that regard. Mario Odyssey on the other hand nails the sandbox exploration gameplay perfectly. There's always something new to discover around the corner. The controls are tight and responsive, and you can ignore the less precise motion controls for the most part. Visually the game looks stunning, though a few of the worlds emphasize realism over Mario's signature cartoon aesthetic which I feel hinders the overall cohesion of the art style which could have been even more outstanding if it didn't feel like you had somehow took a wrong turn and wandered into a different game. But perhaps that's the point? Regardless, this is probably one of the best games Nintendo has ever made. No nickle and dime microtransactions or season passes or loot boxes. Just a game that wants to take you on an adventure and have a good time.

love this game ive always been a mario fan and played all of the mario games

The graphics on this game are amazing. My sons favorite game! Bought this as a gift for family friends. My son got this at 5 years old and after almost 2 years, conquered it. He still loves to play and find new quests and boundaries to explore.

This game is very entertaining for my son; it's the second one I've bought him because he lost the first one and he missed it. Since it was on sale , I gave it to him for Christmas.

This game is what most fans of 3D mario wanted, this game is very entertaining to play through and there are some areas where its very tough (optional) it can get a bit repetitive but thats after you beat the game and try to go for every single moon, the whole story mode is a blast to go through

This has all the features of a great Mario game. It has the exploration and collection features of a great Zelda game with the nostalgia of original Mario (NES) and Mario 64, but this is a new and great Mario experience. I've put in about 30 hours so far. One of the single greatest games I've ever played.

My son really likes the Nintendo switch and this game was a hit!! His older siblings, friends, and we his parents enjoy playing it too! Great graphics! Fun game! It puts a new twist on the original Mario game. Not worried about the content as it is family friendly. Easy to play, but also challenging!
