Super Mario Odyssey - Bowser’s Kingdom Walkthrough

Bowser’s Kingdom

Mario’s previous journey in Super Mario 3D All-Stars continues with Super Mario Odyssey’s Bowser Kingdom.

Bowser’s Kingdom’s aesthetics looks very different from the ones that we often see in the past Super Mario games. In Super Mario Odyssey, Bowser’s Kingdom has several Japanese-inspired temples and structures which are surrounded by colorful clouds. The greater location for this kingdom is Bowser’s castle.
