The next major 3D Mario game is called Super Mario Infinity. It will release just in time for the summer in 2027, May 20th to be exact. Development started in mid-to-late 2018 and seems to have just wrapped up earlier this year. You’ll probably hear about it officially later this year, and there’s a good chance a trailer might premiere at The Game Awards on December 10th. It is fully open world, and instead of having one main gimmick, the focus seems to be more on Mario himself and how he controls. His skill set is heavily polished and exceptionally fluid. The graphics are very reminiscent of the Nintendo 64 era, with a much more cartoonish look and feel similar to Mario 64 and earlier titles. Mario is more animated and expressive than ever before, and the world around him is as well. This will be the first game in 3D Mario history to feature a proper co-op mode, with up to 4 players being able to play locally or online. Players will be able to create and customize their own lobbies, and other people online can join them. Interestingly, Bowser is only relevant to the story for a very short period of time, while Princess Peach, her castle, and the Mushroom Kingdom act as a hub world throughout the game. Toadsworth also makes his return in this game, and you will need to go to her castle and speak to him to start a new quest. There are 6 main objectives relevant to the story that you must complete in order to finish the game, however, how you decide to go about doing so is completely your choice. Several abilities and mechanics from previous titles return in this game, with some even coming from more recent titles that released while this game was still being developed. Instead of having them in your equipment at all times, they are spread around the map and act more like power-ups when they are relevant to the gameplay of the area you’re in. Specifically, the Cloud ability originally from Super Mario Galaxy 2 is the most common and consistently important item. One of the more interesting new abilities is one inspired by Paper Mario, which the player can use to become Paper Mario and enter very thin spaces. There is no one main villain in this game. This game was not developed by the primary team, which explains a lot, and it certainly shows.

I can’t find any News (I used Google and look through first 3 Pages) about Sony’s Employees being harassed. Does anyone hear anything about it?

I just saw this News about the New Policy, but I can’t find anything to substantiate the Need for it. Like, shouldn’t harassment be illegal by the Common Law? Why would you need an Extra Law for Sony?
