Super Mario 3D World was acclaimed for its level design, presentation, replay value, and soundtrack, though some reviewers criticized its unreliable camera in the multiplayer mode. Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury, an enhanced port bundled with the game Bowser's Fury, was released for the Nintendo Switch on February 12, 2021. It features a character selector as well as introducing a power-up called the Super Bell, which turns the player into a cat, enabling them to climb walls and use a scratch attack.

The gameplay is similar to previous Mario games, with players progressing through levels to reach Bowser.

Players control Mario and his friends attempting to rescue fairy-like creatures called Sprixies from Bowser, who invades the realm known as the Sprixie Kingdom. It is the sixth original 3D platform game in the Super Mario series and the sequel to Super Mario 3D Land (2011) for the Nintendo 3DS. Super Mario 3D World is a platform game developed and published by Nintendo for the Wii U in 2013.
