With Super Mario Bros. Wonder less than two months away from release, Nintendo is holding a special Direct focused on the 2D platformer. The Super Mario Bros. Wonder Direct will provide our first look at the game since it was revealed back in June. You likely won’t want to miss it, so here’s how you can tune in.

The Super Mario Bros. Wonder Direct is going down today, August 23, 2023. It starts at 7 a.m. PT/10 a.m. ET and will be streamed live on the Nintendo YouTube channel. You can also watch it using the video embed above.

Nintendo has confirmed that the Super Mario Bros. Wonder Direct will run for approximately 15 minutes, which makes sense given the presentation will focus on a single game. We can expect to see new gameplay, as well as additional details about the psychedelic adventure that Mario and friends are embarking on.

With an October 20 release date already set in place, we’re curious to see what Nintendo has up its sleeve for the Super Mario Bros. Wonder Direct. Of course, you should bookmark our topic page dedicated to the game to keep up with everything you need to know about Super Mario Bros. Wonder leading up to its release.

        Yesss, can't wait for weird 2d elephant Mario making everyone go "wtf this is so weird, JUST GIVE ME MARIO 64 OVER AND OVER AGAIN FOREVER"

        It looks like some of the Odyssey design philosophy is in there, where you can morph into different shapes/sizes and gain really strange temporary abilities (beyond just the usual 2d Mario powerups).

        that looks like a lot of fun. I actually like that casual online aspect too, and I hate multiplayer games.

        Nintendo makes this look so easy, the making of fantastic games. I know it's not easy, and it helps they have this great foundation to jump off of (characters, history, etc.) but they make it look easy. Like sure, here's a game where you can do a thousand things and also be an elephant.

                I like that they challenged themselves to innovate on 2D Mario. There’s a lot of variety and diversity seemingly possible moment to moment. And the animation quality looks fresh. I’m not sure if I’m sold on the talking plants, the first trailer did get a few chuckles out of me on it though. In any case I used a voucher on this and I’m sure I’ll love it.

        Tropical Freeze is probably going to keep being the gold standard for their 2D games but this still looks 100000x better than the last 15+ years of New Super Mario Bros games.

          Mario Maker was better than NSMB but mainly the first one. MM2 wasn't enough of a leap from the first one while still being too married to the New Super Mario Bros games.

          The Wonder shit in this looks terrific

            Also the Death Stranding type online stuff is interesting. Lots of good additions aside from the Wonder levels

      SMB Wonder is the Dark Souls of the SMB series, it seems.
