Super Mario RPG Remake

Nintendo has released a new gameplay trailer for its remake of Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars, coming to Nintendo Switch on November 17th. The updated visuals look incredible, while the soundtrack is lovingly modernized. But that’s not all, as the role-playing game has received some new features to enhance combat.

As with the original release, timing button presses let you block damage and add damage to certain moves. However, if you time attacks in the remake, you can simultaneously damage all enemies. Successfully executing action commands will also fill a gauge to unleash a triple move with party members on the field.

These triple moves changed based on those present on the field, so some experimentation is encouraged. Finally, you can rematch against certain bosses. Be careful, as they’ve seen some significant enhancements. Also, it seems that Culex returns, as the signature door in Monstro Town is showcased. Stay tuned for more details en route to the remake’s release.
