Nintendo Is Bringing Mario, Luigi and More to Minecraft

Come for the Jolly Green Giant-sized Mario, stay for the official Super Mario-themed world. Nintendo and Mojang just announced they're joining hands to bring the Kyoto publisher's famed plumbers, koopas, exploding POW Blocks and more to Minecraft: Wii U Edition on May 17. And the best part: the new content is completely free. It's called the "Super Mario Mash-Up Pack," and includes a pre-made world and music inspired by Super Mario series games like Super Mario World, Super Mario 64 and Super Mario Sunshine. Nintendo has also included 40 Super Mario-themed skins (plays as Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach, Bowser, Wario, the Koopalings and so forth), and completely retextured the game to resemble the iconic series.
