Super Mario Galaxy 1 And 2 Are Coming To Switch This October

Hot off the heels of the announcement of The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, Nintendo announced that both Super Mario Galaxy games are finally coming to Switch this October.

2007’s Super Mario Galaxy and 2010’s Super Mario Galaxy 2 are being bundled together in a package plainly dubbed Super Mario Galaxy + Super Mario Galaxy 2.  Each game can also be purchased standalone, but only digitally. 

The games are natively designed for the original Switch, meaning they’re also playable on Switch 2. The Switch 2 version will receive a free update adding 4K resolution support for both games.  The Galaxy games on Switch also boast improved resolution, improved UI, an Assist Mode, and new Storybook chapters fleshing out the story of the Lumas. 

While Super Mario Galaxy was previously available on Switch via Super Mario 3D All-Stars, that game is no longer available for purchase. This gives fans who missed that collection another chance to own Galaxy and its equally excellent sequel, which is making its Switch debut after being excluded from 3D All-Stars. Super Mario Galaxy + Super Mario Galaxy 2 will be available on Switch on October 2 for $69.99. Purchasing each game individually will cost $39.99.

Additionally, Nintendo is releasing new Galaxy-themed amiibo of Mario and Rosalina on April 2, 2026, and a physical version of the storybook featured in the first Mario Galaxy.
