==Story==
The story revolves around a cosmic deity named Themis, who has kidnapped Rosalina with the help of the Cosmic Clones. Themis learns of a comet that is heading towards the Mushroom Kingdom and wishes to obtain it's powers and recreate the universe in his liking. When Mario and the others stop him from intercepting the comet, the comet splits into thousands of pieces into the portal realm. Themis learns of the multiverse and refocuses his efforts and getting the comet shards, allowing for his original plan to become even bigger.
Now Mario and friends have to travel through time, space, and dimensions to stop Themis, who desires everything to go his way, and save Rosalina. Over the course of the game, the battle becomes bigger and bigger with both sides amassing forces.
===Prologue===
A cosmic deity known as Themis is searching for a planet in his next step for universal conquest. As he does, he bumps into Rosalina's Comet Conservatory. Although the two seem to get along well, when Rosalina learns that Themis is attempting to take over the universe she fights him only to be overwhelmed with Cosmic Clones. The Lumas are also captured by Cosmic Clones, but one manages to escape: Baby Luma. Rosalina tells Baby Luma as he escapes the Comet Conservatory to find Mario.
Mario and Luigi wake up in the morning and head to Peach's castle, only to find nobody is there. Mario groans as he believes Peach is kidnapped again and tries to call up Yellow and Blue Toad, only to hear a cellphone ring in the castle. As Mario heads over to the sound of the noise, the lights turn on and everyone comes from their hiding spots to shout surprise.
As Mario and Luigi celebrate their birthday, Mario realizes that Rosalina and the Lumas aren't here, which is really odd considering everyone from Princess Lily to Geno to Mimi showed up. Mario asks Bowser if he's seen Rosalina, but Bowser has no clue. Mario then asks Bowser's brother Devili the same thing, but the answer is the same.
As Mario steps out of the castle for a minute, Baby Luma crashes in front of him with the message that Rosalina has been kidnapped but is unable to explain her captor. Mario puts him in his hat and begins walking, trying to figure out who it could be.
Suddenly Mario spots Peach looking out a telescope and sees that a comet is heading towards them, with a impact date of 4 days. Mario, Luigi, Blue Toad, Yellow Toad, Peach, Princess Lily head out to put a stop to it.
===World 1: The Mushroom Kingdom===
Mario and the group head towards the impact location of the comet and try and figure out how to stop it. There they spot Bowser taking the Sprixies, which has them reasonably alarmed. Upon rescuing all of the seven Sprixies and facing Bowser, Bowser is revealed to be under the control of Themis. Themis tells that he is seeking the comet coming to the Mushroom Kingdom and needed the use of Bowser's army to awaken his powers. As blue lava encompasses him in a circle, the Sprixies manage to hold off the lava from completing the circle. When Themis realizes what is going on, it is too late as Mario and the others send a giant baseball to direct the comet from course. Themis becomes angry and begins to attack Mario's group, taking them all out instantly. When Mario comes to...
===World 2: Comet Fields===
Mario find himself inside of the comet which is an expansive extradimensional dimension. Inside he finds that Themis is already heading to the core of the comet. He and the others chase after him. When they meet with Themis again, he sends out an army of Cosmic clones to hold them off as he absorbs the comet and it's power. Bowser manages to shatter the Comet's core before it can be fully absorbed by Themis. Themis slams Bowser into the fourth dimension and realizes he has broken reality, opening the Portal Realm, where he discovers the Multiverse.
===World 3: The Portal Realm===
Themis realizes that there must be several other comets coming at the same date because of the infinite possibilities a multiverse has. If he can absorb enough comets, he can become powerful enough to remake the multiverse in his own image. Mario's group advises against this but he heads off anyway and brings Rosalina with him.
As the group explores the Multiverse further, Mario meets his possible future daughter Maxia again, who has begun to fade, stating that Themis' possibility of succeeding has increased and has begun to erode several future universe's possibilities. With each universe that erodes, the infection will spread further until there is nothing left. Peachiro encounters the group and joins them as they bump into each other. Mario heads to New York after he sees Themis head there.
===World 4: New York===
Like the Mushroom Kingdom, a comet is heading towards Earth. As Mario and the others head into New York, they find their presence is not welcomed, as Themis has claimed they are a threat from the Mushroom Kingdom. As they are trapped by several members of the military, a character from the portal realm named Bullet Billie suddenly fires into the military group and manages to rescue Mario's group. They see Themis flying towards the comet using extradimensional travel, leaving several portal rings in the sky. As Mario and the group use a helicopter to get close to Themis, the helicopter is knocked into a portal ring by Gobblegut, knocking them into Inkopolis.
===World 5: Inkopolis===
As Mario and the group land in Inkopolis, an Inkling named Ika attempts to fight them only to learn that paint doesn't do anything to them. Puzzled by this, Mario explains that they're from another universe. Ika tells them there might be a portal that could lead them home, but they will have to go into Octo Valley.
After defeating DJ Octavio, the group heads into the portal to find themselves...
===World 6: Hyrule===
...in Hyrule. Mario and the others encounter Link and Zelda and learn that there is a portal that can send them back, but it is in Gerudo Valley. As they go to Gerudo Valley, they meet Ganondorf who they battle. After battling Ganondorf, Themis appears out of a portal and heads towards the sky, opening more Portal Rings. Pit and Palutena fall out of the sky and watch as Themis heads to Flat World. Using the power of flight, they manage to follow.
===World 7: Flat World===
Mario and the others land in the Flat World, where they find that Themis has teamed up with some of Count Bleck's old minions such as O' Chunks, Mimi, and Nastasia. As the group looks for Themis' location, they come across Goombella. They finally get to Themis, who is after a comet that is heading towards this world. He sends O' Chunks, Mimi, and Nastasia after them. After defeating the three, the universe erodes as Themis absorbs the comet. They are knocked into the last stable universe, a barren black landscape where Mario meets his Paper counterpart and joins up with him. They find the Comet Conservatory.
===World 8: The Comet Conservatory===
Themis has only one comet left to consume. Mario and the others use the Comet Conservatory to follow him and possibly stop him, even though the chances are slim to none. As they approach Themis, he begins to fire at them with lunar and solar stars, which must be dodged. As the Comet Conservatory crashes into Themis, the boss battle begins.
After defeating Themis, Rosalina manages to grab the comet for herself and using all of her power manages to cast Themis outside of a forcefield. Rosalina states there are still fragments of the Multiverse left, some of which are the shops and a couple of levels with Power Stars. If they can gather enough Power Stars, it might be enough to depower Themis and drain his powers so they reverse the damage he has created.
===Galaxy 1: Onett===
This begins the second half of the game and is now in the Galaxy style of gameplay.
Upon collecting all 5 power stars in Onett, Ness joins the team.
===Galaxy 2: Wily Castle===
Upon collecting all 5 power stars in Wily Castle, Megaman and Roll join the team.
===Galaxy 3: Koopaling World===
Upon collecting all 10 power stars in the Koopaling World, Mario Koopaling and Jinkesse Koopaling join the team.
===Galaxy 4: Spacial Destruction===
The fragments of the worlds are beginning to disappear, with this corrupted fragment being one of the last places. Upon collecting all 5 power stars, Rosalina just needs one more Power Star but the only one left is in the most corrupted world yet. The team agrees to journey anyway.
===Galaxy 5: Noise World===
In this last world, we see Umbra, who holds the last Power Star. He recognizes Mario and the others but they don't recognize him, as they do not originate from the Super Smash Bros. Assemble universe. After battling, the last Power Star powers the comet and Themis is mostly depowered. As Rosalina fixes the multiverse, Themis slams Mario into the fourth dimension, which turns out is actually the past.
===World 1-1===
Mario is flung into the past to where it all began: World 1-1. As Mario heads towards the flag, something roars in the distance, which turns out to be a elephant made of parts of the level called Ojay. After defeating Ojay, a portal to the future opens, returning Mario to the present time, where it is still broken.
===The Final Battle===
Themis is seen taking a stone from Toadsworth, which Palutena learns is the Enchanted Stone which allows Mario to transform into God Mario. Themis touches the stone and turns into God Themis and hits Mario, but as Mario flies back he touches the stone and transforms into God Mario. The two battle and it becomes incredibly close until Bowser appears out from the fourth dimension and turns into God Bowser. Both God Mario and God Bowser defeat God Themis. The screen turns white as the world returns to it's proper state. As the game closes, it reveals that Themis is in deep sleep, waiting to be awakened again...

===Items===
Image 	Info
Coin 	A simple coin. Collect 100 of these and get an extra life. It's as easy as that.
Red Coin 	These coins only show up in a certain area and they are often close together. If you collect them all, you get a 1-UP or a star, depending on which part of the game you are in.
Radioactive Coin	These coins are a bit harder to get because they only drop randomly from enemies. Use these to buy characters in World 3.
Propeller Box 	A Propeller Box is a power-up first seen in Super Mario 3D Land. The player is able to wear it over their bodies. The blades of the propeller can be used to rapidly fly into the air to a great height, and then slowly fall back down towards the ground. The Propeller Box is lost once the player finishes a level, but an extra life is rewarded. While wearing a Propeller Box, nobody can use attacks.
Light Box 	A Light Box is an object that first appeared in Super Mario 3D World. It can be worn over the player's body. Light Boxes can be found in sets of four (one for each player) inside a Ghost House. Upon wearing one, the block will change into the color depending on the character and the lamp on the front will emit a beam of light, which can be used to not only light up any dark spaces in front of the player, but also to defeat ghost enemies, such as Peepas, Boos and Big Boos, a method similar to that of Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario Galaxy 2. However, unlike the aforementioned games, the beam of light must be shone on the enemy for a short period of time to defeat it.
Cannon Box 	The Cannon Box is an item that first appeared in Super Mario 3D World. Cannon Boxes are first found as ? Blocks, but after being hit once, the actual Cannon Box is revealed. The player can then hit it once again, causing them to wear it over their body. The color of the Cannon Box changes to match the character that is wearing it. While using a Cannon Box, characters can fire cannonballs from a cannon on the front of the box; the projectiles can also be charged before being fired, which increases the distance they travel and allows the player to hold their fire. Cannonballs fired can collect coins and other items, as well as break cracked walls and Grey Brick Blocks. Unlike other items, the cannonballs can damage the other players unless they are in their Invincible form or Mega form.
Goomba Mask 	Introduced in 3D World, the Goomba Mask is a mask of a Goomba that makes the player look similar to a Goomba. Upon wearing it, some enemies capable of noticing the character's presence will not recognize the player nor attack them. Also, Spotlights will not react if the player is within sight. However, contact with enemies will still cause damage, removing the mask. Power-ups cannot be used, but Peach's float is still usable.
Bombchu 	The Bombchu is a type of mobile explosives, which quickly move along the ground in a straight line until they self-destruct (indicated by red flashing) or until they touch an object or an enemy. They can be used to deliver explosive power to areas too out of reach for reach for regular Bombs or other weapons, or to attack enemies without getting too close. They can also crawl up walls.
