A foe named King Olly will attempt a power grab as he "unleashes his plan to fold the entire world," enlisting Bowser's own minions to his cause. To fight back Mario will use a new "1000-Fold Arms" mechanic, which "allows you to interact with the landscape by stretching out and pulling, peeling and revealing new locations, helping you to solve puzzles and uncover unexpected surprises." Nintendo also teases a new turn-based battle system that is "far from stationary," as well as plenty of minigames. You can check out the lovely box art here and the official site here.
