Mario is pulled out of the Mushroom Kingdom and into a fantasy world in which he hops, skips, and jumps around, looking like a general badass.
It'll have some Switch-only features, generally revolving around Mario's cap.
There's not much information about the game as of current as it's not coming out until the holiday season in 2017 (end of the year), but we'll keep you updated when we know more.
