Several Mario Party Superstars updates were announced at the most recent Nintendo Direct. This update announced that the game will bring several boards from the game's Nintendo 64 era into Mario Party Superstars. These new boards include Woody Woods, Yoshi's Tropical Island, and Horror Land – which will be joining Space Land and Peach's Birthday Cake from the same era.

In addition to these boards, c0ming to Mario Party Superstars, a new Mt. Minigames mode was also announced, which has a wide variety of mini-game courses to play through, such as Survival and Tag match, all totaling up to 7 different courses. As ever, all these new modes coming to Mario Party Superstars will support online multiplayer from the get-go when the game releases on October 29, 2021.

The game's official Nintendo Switch Page offers the following details:

“Calling all Superstars! Mario Party™ is back with 5 classic boards from the Nintendo 64 Mario Party games. Frosting meets flowers as you race to get the most stars (and sabotage your opponents) on the Peach’s Birthday Cake board from the original Mario Party game. Or watch the countdown that unleashes Bowser Coin Beam and hold onto those coins on the Space Land board. The tides can turn quickly in Mario Party, so stay vigilant, partygoers. This and all other modes can be played online, too!

100 classic minigames return from the Nintendo 64 and Nintendo GameCube™ games and more!

Try your hand at a Superstar collection of minigames from throughout the Mario Party series. Whether you are saving up coins for stars in board game mode or practicing in free play, there is nothing quite like being the last one standing in Mushroom Mix-Up or Shy Guy Says. All minigames are played with button controls, so you can stick to the Joy-Con™ controller or bust out the Nintendo Switch™ Pro Controller or a Nintendo Switch Lite system.”
