Mario Sports Wuhu

Mario Sports Wuhu will be an upcoming 3-D third-person open world sports simulation game for the Nintendo Switch. It will be the newest installment in the Mario Sports series as well as a spiritual successor to the Wii Sports series with the setting of Wii Sports Resort - Wuhu Island - making its return engagement.
== Gameplay ==
The gameplay of Mario Sports Wuhu is similar to Wii Sports Resort and the Mario and Sonic titles but with the open world platforming and exploration mechanics of titles such as Super Mario Odyssey and Bowser's Fury as well as the Drop-In/Drop-Out Cooperative of Mario Super Sluggers' Challenge Mode and the LEGO Star Wars series. Each sport has its unique controls. Most sports from Wii Sports Resort are played similarly as in it, and new sports are based off of it.
=== Modes ===
* Challenge Mode (1-4 Players) - The player can build up their roster of Mario characters in this mode by playing each different kind of sport and level grinding to get a character or even a team of them to the top of the world leaderboards while they can explore and settle in on the paradisaical Wuhu Island.
* Dream Sports (1-4 Players) - Like in Mario and Sonic, these are based on normal events, but take place in real locations from the Mario world.
* Training (1 Player) - Training for each event is held which involves doing a certain task to pass.
* Sports (1-4 Players) - The player can compete with other Mario characters for first place.
* Shopping (1 Player) - Using points achieved from winning sports, the player can buy music, books, items, decals, and clothing.
* Online (1-8 Players total) - Sports can be played with people from around the world.
* Free Play (1 Player) - The player can use any Mario/Yoshi/Wario/Donkey Kong character and play around in any sport to their heart's content around major venues of Wuhu Island.
== Sports ==
The gameplay will work just like in Wii Sports Resort with some open world mechanics of Super Mario Odyssey in the Challenge Mode and Free Play mode. There are thirteen total sports.. Each sport has at least two to five sub-modes and in each, the gameplay differs. Each sport is playable with at least two human players, some allowing three or four. Sports that support up to seven CPU players can be played with eight online, though.
Like in the Mario and Sonic series, Dream Events exist, where events are playable in locations from the Mario series. Most sports are playable in Dream except two, both in the Air Sports category.
