PT. The special Super Mario Galaxy event introduces a new system of missions, inviting players to complete specific objectives throughout their cosmic journey.
Progress toward these missions can be easily tracked by tapping the dedicated mission icon located in the upper-right section of the kingdom interface.

Nintendo has outlined three main mission paths for the event: **Mario's Galaxy-Hopping Adventure Missions:** - Complete 3 missions: Earn 500 Coins - Complete 6 missions: Receive 10 Rally Tickets - Complete 9 missions: Unlock the Bee Mario Statue **Adventure Across the Galaxies with Yoshi Missions:** - Complete 3 missions: Get 15 Rally Tickets - Complete 6 missions: Rosalina & Luma Statue - Complete 9 missions: Mario & Blimp Yoshi Statue **Bowser's Plot Missions (Challenging Set):** - Complete 3 missions: Gold Bee Mario Statue - Complete 6 missions: Gold Rosalina & Luma Statue - Complete 9 missions: Gold Mario & Blimp Yoshi Statue A Nintendo spokesperson highlighted the event's design, stating that players can "earn exclusive golden statue versions by taking on the more difficult Bowser's Plot missions, offering collectors and completionists new incentives." To ensure broad access, Nintendo has arranged for one different course to be unlocked for free each day during the event.
Courses will rotate from a pool that includes 2-1 to 5-3, spanning multiple galaxy and stage variations.
Additionally, linking a Nintendo Account provides access to an extra stage, enhancing daily play opportunities for connected users. Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario Galaxy 2 are available on the Nintendo Switch, showcasing improved visuals and added features.
Both titles also support play via a free update for Nintendo Switch 2.
The games are free to start, with optional in-game purchases available.
Persistent internet access and a compatible smart device are required to participate in the event, and standard data charges may apply.
