Super Mario Party Jamboree is an upcoming game in the Mario Party series set to be released worldwide for the Nintendo Switch on October 17, 2024. First announced during the Nintendo Direct on June 18, 2024, it is the eighteenth installment in the Mario Party series, the thirteenth released on a home console, and the third released for the Nintendo Switch. Serving as a successor to Super Mario Party, albeit with gameplay mostly modeled after Mario Party Superstars, the game features both new and returning boards, in addition to over 110 minigames, and an expansive roster of playable characters, including newcomers such as Ninji and Pauline.[2] The game marks the debut of Kevin Afghani as Waluigi.

A playable demo of the game was available at the Nintendo booth during PAX West 2024 prior to its release from August 30, 2024 to September 2, 2024.[3]
