We don’t have all of the information from Game Informer’s New Super Mario Bros. U cover story, but we do have a smattering of details and images. Screenshots can be found in the gallery above while the new information has been posted below.
- Dozens of levels scattered across one giant map
- Sometimes breaks from the large map to zoom in on areas such as the Cookie Dome or Forest of Illusion
- Map can be panned around in its entirety and seamlessly explored at any time
- You’ll sometimes be allowed to choose between several choices as to which world you want to explore next
- Boost Rush mode: offers more challenge, auto-scrolling
- 7 worlds confirmed by Game Informer: Acorn Plains, Sparkling Waters (tropical), Frosted Glacier, Layer Cake Desert (complete with melting desserts), areas similar to Forest of Illusion and Sky World and a world surround by a tornado
- Bowser has kidnapped Peach yet again
- Boom-Boom is at the end of the mid-world fortresses
- Koopalings are at each of the castles
