It includes a mushroom mural, Princess Peach dress and shoes, the super Wario outfit, block flooring, Yoshi’s Egg rug, shells, Thwomp, the question block, and many more. Players will be able to place these game items anywhere on their island and acquire and place two warp pipes. These pipes will prove useful to travel from one part of the island to another swiftly.
The new Super Mario additions to the game are to celebrate the prolonged Mario 35th anniversary. It is one of the several Mario-themed things that Nintendo is featuring recently. This isn’t the first time players will see Super Mario-themed items in the Animal Crossing game franchise. It has become a great tradition since the original Animal Crossing game. The Super Mario Bros items have earlier appeared in all Animal Crossing games since the original one, including the mobile title Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp.
