The party comes to Nintendo Switch in this complete refresh of the Mario Party series!

The Mario Party series is coming to the Nintendo Switch system with super-charged fun for everyone!

The game also introduces all-new ways to play, including Joy-Con controller enabled minigames, and new modes to enjoy with family and friends.

With new modes and new minigames coupled with original board gameplay, the party starts anywhere, anytime, and with all kinds of players.
