Template:Infobox Super Mario Party is an upcoming game in the Mario Party series, set to be released for the Nintendo Switch on October 5, 2018. It will be the eleventh home console installment in the series.
Described by Nintendo as a "complete relaunch"[1] and "complete refresh"[2] of the Mario Party series when revealed at E3 2018, the game "goes back to the four-player basics as players take turns and race across the board searching for Stars"[2] as seen in the Mario Party installments prior to Mario Party 9, but also incorporates elements from the more contemporary Mario Party games, including the "ally" mechanics from Mario Party: Star Rush.[2]
