Nintendo have revealed on stage at the iPhone 7 launch that a Super Mario game titled ‘Super Mario Run’ will be hitting the iPhone and iPad exclusively in December. It’s most likely just a timed-exclusive for the holiday season.
It appears that the game will be free-to-play with in-app purchases for extra content.
There will be three different game modes:
- The first mode will feature challenging courses for you to complete.
- In the second mode, you challenge the play data of other people’s completed courses
- In the third mode, you can create your own Mushroom Kingdom using coins collected by playing the first two game modes.
