Super Mario Maker 2 Release Date Announced

By Jon Ryan

Nintendo has announced the release date for Super Mario Maker 2.

The follow-up to 2015’s Super Mario Maker will launch on June 28th, 2019 on Nintendo Switch. The information came by way of a post on Nintendo America’s official Twitter account.

Super Mario Maker 2 will feature, assumedly, the full original toolset from SMM1 (which players tweaked to great effect after it’s launch) as well as “new tools, course parts, and features,” according to Nintendo.

Nintendo also linked to a preliminary website for Mario Maker 2 where players in the US and Canada can place pre-orders for the game, with a “full site coming soon”.

JR is IGN’s Senior Editor of Features, and missed the original SMM and is looking forward to making horrifying deathtraps for his friends. He might post about it on Twitter.
