A new Yoshi platformer is heading to Switch 2 to celebrate the Super Mario Bros. 40th anniversary.
Yoshi and the Mysterious Book features a gorgeous hand-drawn storybook aesthetic and puzzle-like 2D gameplay.
In a string of Mario-themed announcements, this and Mario Tennis Fever were the only actual new games revealed, alongside a Switch 2 update for Super Mario Bros. Wonder and the Super Mario Galaxy double pack.
Still, Yoshi and the Mysterious Book looks delightful, as Nintendo follows up the wool and crafting themes of its previous Yoshi adventures.
I am, however, quite concerned about the size of the belly button on this grumpy creature.
Yoshi and the Mysterious Book launches on Switch 2 in spring next year – right around the time of the newly-revealed The Super Mario Galaxy Movie.
