E3 2019: Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games races onto Nintendo Switch in November

It’s been a while since we’ve seen a Mario & Sonic at the Olympics title but with the Tokyo 2020 games on the horizon, you’d better believe Nintendo is getting into the spirit.

The trailer, which first appeared during this morning’s E3 edition of Nintendo Direct, features a number of new sports including surfing, skateboarding, judo and rock climbing. It also includes a number of legacy sports like track and field, tennis, rowing and soccer (we still want that new Mario Strikers Football, Nintendo), positioning itself as the party game of choice over the holidays this year.

Mario & Sonic at The Olympic Games Tokyo 2020 launches in November this year, though no specific date has been confirmed as yet. It is a Nintendo Switch exclusive.
