Multi Moon
- Not to be confused with 3-Up Moon.
Multi Moons are collectable items in Super Mario Odyssey. Equivalent to the Grand Stars in Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario Galaxy 2, they are usually collected after completing a level with a boss (with the exception of Bowser) or another story-related mission. They count as three Power Moons when powering up the Odyssey, although they are only counted as one on the list of Moons in a kingdom. Like the Power Moons, the Multi Moons are given specific colors depending on the kingdom in which they are found. Collecting a Multi Moon will teleport Mario back to the Odyssey.

Colors
Multi Moons feature a different color depending on the kingdom in which they are found. Their color also matches the color of the kingdom's Power Moons and the pole of the Kingdom's Checkpoint Flag. Like Power Moons, after they are collected, they lose their color and appear translucent the next time they are collected. The Multi Moons in the boss rematch paintings, Dark Side and Darker Side are the only ones that can be collected again.

Trivia
- Multi Moons were originally called Grand Moons during the E3 playthrough.[1]
- White is the only Power Moon color to not represent a Multi Moon.
- Unlike normal Power Moons, the victory animation will still play if an already-grabbed Multi Moon is collected again.
- As of the version 1.2.0 update with Luigi's Balloon World added, the already-collected Multi Moon no longer appears in front of Mario and Cappy on the screen in the victory animation.
