Nintendo has made a significant addition to its ever-expanding Nintendo Music platform by uploading the complete soundtrack from Paper Mario: The Origami King.
Available now, the collection brings an impressive 262 songs from the critically acclaimed RPG to fans and collectors alike, marking one of the largest music updates for the service to date.
Originally launched for the Nintendo Switch in July 2020, Paper Mario: The Origami King was developed by Intelligent Systems and published by Nintendo.
Known for its inventive paper-themed visuals and creative puzzles, the sixth installment in the Paper Mario series was praised for its humor, engaging characters, and innovative ring-based battle mechanics.
The game sold over 3 million copies worldwide by the end of its release year, highlighting its popularity among Nintendo Switch owners. The soundtrack’s runtime clocks in at an astounding 11 hours and 10 minutes, capturing every memorable moment and quirky scene from the game.
With music ranging from the dramatic "Battle with King Olly" to lighthearted tracks like "Toad’s BBQ Foodeatery" and "Olivia’s First Appearance," listeners can now relive Mario’s origami adventure in full.
The addition of Paper Mario: The Origami King’s extensive score demonstrates Nintendo’s commitment to preserving and celebrating the musical artistry of its first-party titles. Speaking on the update, Nintendo stated that this addition exemplifies their ongoing effort to bring beloved game music to fans around the world.
The massive tracklist serves both as a testament to Intelligent Systems’ creative vision and as a nostalgic journey for those who experienced the title upon its original Nintendo Switch release. Paper Mario: The Origami King received improved critical reception compared to prior entries like Sticker Star and Color Splash, particularly for its stronger writing and imaginative exploration.
While some fans missed the traditional RPG battle system, the introduction of the new ring mechanic was widely regarded as a fresh and strategic twist for the series. This update follows other recent Nintendo Music additions, including soundtracks from The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass and Mario & Luigi: Brothership, further expanding the platform’s comprehensive video game music library available to Nintendo Switch users and the broader gaming community. Fans are encouraged to explore the full Paper Mario: The Origami King soundtrack on Nintendo Music and revisit the game's memorable journey through its rich and diverse musical themes.
