Cappy's final design was colored white as he was meant to transform into various hats, and white was deemed a color able to fit all the different colors of the hats.<ref name="concept">[https://twitter.com/mario_odysseyJP/status/950486017575800832 Post about the sketch of Cappy's final design from the Japanese ''Super Mario Odyssey'' official Twitter account].

Cappy's proper debut occurs in ''Super Mario Odyssey'', where he is [[Mario]]'s main partner throughout the game. Cappy joins Mario to rescue his little sister [[Tiara]], who had been kidnapped by [[Bowser]] along with [[Princess Peach]]. He is "energetic but a bit timid."<ref name=Twitter>[https://twitter.com/mario_odysseyJP/status/874671918237995008 ''Super Mario Odyssey'' Japanese Twitter]</ref> Cappy is also controlled by the second player while playing in co-op mode.

Mario can [[Cap Throw|throw Cappy]] in various ways; a straight up/down shot that can roll across surfaces, a circular, boomerang-like throw, and a homing throw which can also be used to extend Cappy's reach. Cappy can also be held in place once thrown. Throwing Cappy in the air gives Mario a vertical boost while canceling horizontal momentum, allowing Mario to adjust his trajectory. Mario can bounce off Cappy once per jump, significantly extending Mario's jumping reach, but he can be thrown a second time. These moves serve as an attack and defensive measure, allowing Mario to defeat enemies at a distance.

Cappy appears in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' as the [[Crazy Cap#Mario Cap|Mario Cap]], [[Crazy Cap#Mario's Top Hat|Mario's Top Hat]] and [[Crazy Cap#Builder Helmet|Builder Helmet]], appearing during some moves and a taunt alongside Mario. However, he does not have any effect on Mario's moveset. He also appears in his Bonneter form as a support [[Spirit (Super Smash Bros. Ultimate)|spirit]], which slightly increases the power of grabs and throws when equipped. Cappy's spirit can be summoned using [[zeldawiki:Ezlo|Ezlo]]'s core and [[Boo Mario]]'s core, a reference to Cappy sharing a similar hat-based and ghostly appearance with Ezlo and Boo Mario, respectively. Cappy also appears in Mario Cap form as a [[List of Mii Headgear|hat]] that can be worn by [[Mii|Mii Fighters]], which can be unlocked through a challenge.
