Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door comes to Nintendo Switch on May 23, 2024

It’s Mario Day and Nintendo had a few surprises to celebrate the occasion such as revealing the release date for the Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door Remaster. Fans can expect to play the classic Paper Mario game on May 23, 2024, on Nintendo Switch.

You can pre-order Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door on the Nintendo eShop for $59.99 USD.

The nefarious X-Nauts are after the treasure behind the Thousand-Year Door! With a map from Princess Peach, and the help of a few locals, Mario journeys through a colorful world made of paper to find them first. To prevail in this quest, you’ll have to level up Mario and his friends, master timing-based attacks and badges to impress the audience on the stage of combat, and make use of all the abilities that come with being cursed—er, conveniently made of paper—like folding into a plane to cross big gaps or turning sideways to slip through narrow openings.

We knew the release date would be coming soon after the ESRB rated the Paper Mario remaster in late December.
