This will be the first opportunity for UK fans to play Nintendo’s newest upcoming entry in the Super Mario Bros. series, Super Mario Bros. Wonder.

Alongside this, Nintendo UK will be providing attendees with fun content from their booth across all four days of the convention, including a variety of social sharing photo opportunities. Mario and Luigi character costumes will also be present at EGX 2023, creating unmissable fan experiences and allowing attendees to stop by and say hello to the world-renowned duo. Nintendo UK will also be present in the Family Zone, where parents and kids alike can get hands on with some of Nintendo’s best loved family games on Nintendo Switch.

Kalpesh Tailor, Head of Communications at Nintendo UK said: “Nintendo UK is excited to partner with EGX to bring the first UK hands on play of Super Mario Bros. Wonder to attendees. We’re excited to see everyone get to experience the power of the Wonder Flower and the unexpected surprises that will bring. EGX brings players together, which is at the heart of everything we do, and can’t wait to share these experiences with everyone in October.”

EGX 2023 will offer players the chance to play the latest games, attend fascinating panels, talks and sessions from the industry’s top creative minds and discover dazzling indie gems in the Rezzed Zone and The Leftfield Collection.

Fans will also be able to visit the GI Academy for career advice from industry experts and watch or take part in the returning EGX Cosplay Championship and various esports tournaments taking place over the four days.
