Today, LEGO and Nintendo have unveiled the full range of the LEGO Super Mario Experience. Announced with the starter course and two expansion courses in April, LEGO and Nintendo have now revealed a total of seven additional expansion sets.
That’s not all though, as 10 collectible enemy characters are available to add an extra challenge to each set. And, four bonus Power-up packs give Mario some of his iconic special powers.
The LEGO Super Mario Experience launches on August 1, 2020 and pre-orders are open from LEGO’s website.

“LEGO Mario also features speakers that allow fans to enjoy iconic Super Mario sounds when collecting coins, jumping on enemies and more.” Using a Power-up pack will change Mario’s interactions and create different sounds and visuals.

With today’s announcement, 16 LEGO Super Mario sets have been introduced and I am really looking forward to seeing how people’s play expands with these and the unique Power-Up Packs. Each player’s preferences and imagination are different.
