Nintendo Shares New Details on Super Mario Bros. Wonder Switch 2 Edition – Playable Rosalina, Multiplayer Hub & More
Nintendo has revealed a wealth of new information about Super Mario Bros. Wonder: Nintendo Switch 2 Edition + Meetup in Bellabel Park, the upcoming enhanced version of the acclaimed platformer coming to Nintendo Switch 2 on March 26, 2026. The announcement highlights playable Rosalina, a new multiplayer hub world, fresh challenges, co‑op features, and more content built specifically for the Nintendo Switch 2 hardware.
This Switch 2 Edition not only expands the original game’s single‑player experience but also adds dedicated multiplayer attractions, making it both a co‑op and competitive playground for friends and family.
Rosalina Joins the Roster
One of the most exciting reveals is the addition of Rosalina as a playable character in the Wonder world — marking her first inclusion in this series entry. She’s joined by her cosmic companion Luma, who acts as an assist character during co‑op play. Players can choose to control Luma with intuitive mouse controls on Switch 2, letting them spin through courses, gather coins, and help defeat enemies alongside Rosalina and friends.
Rosalina’s inclusion has been a long‑time wishlist feature for fans, and her gameplay is said to blend naturally with Wonder’s fast‑paced platforming style.
#SuperMarioBrosWonder – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition + Meetup in Bellabel Park arrives March 26!
Look forward to new boss courses with all 7 Koopalings, two new playable characters, Rosalina, and Co-Star Luma, and more!
