As a long-time Mario fan with memories of playing the original Mario Party on the GameCube, I’m thrilled to see the franchise continuing to evolve and push its boundaries. The announcement of Super Mario Party Jamboree and its day-one patch has only heightened my anticipation for the game’s release.

The creators of “Super Mario Party Jamboree” have rolled out an initial update, available for download right from the game’s release day. This update is crucial as it rectifies a few bugs and enables users to utilize online functionality within the game. Despite being released just hours before the grand unveiling of “Super Mario Party Jamboree”, this update proves beneficial for players.

In America, the new game “Super Mario Party Jamboree” is scheduled for release at night on October 16th. For our friends across the pond in Europe, they can start playing it a day earlier, on October 17th. As the 13th installment of the “Mario Party” series, which originated from the GameCube in 1998, this game will continue to stick with the franchise’s classic style. In this game, up to four players can participate and assume the roles of well-known Nintendo characters, racing around a board while engaging in mini-games together.

The first update for the game was revealed on October 16th. According to the official Nintendo support site, gamers won’t be able to use any of the online features unless they initially download the patch. If you’ve pre-ordered the game, you might have already installed it prior to its release. Here’s how it works: if your Switch system settings are set to Auto-Update Software and it’s connected to the internet, the update should automatically download as long as there’s enough storage space available. If not, you’ll need to manually download the patch. To enjoy online features, you’ll also have to be a subscriber of Nintendo Switch Online service.

Prior to its release, Super Mario Party Jamboree has been receiving outstanding praise. At present, it boasts an average rating of 81 on OpenCritic, making it the highest-rated game in the entire Mario Party series, with 2021’s Mario Party Superstars following closely behind at a score of 79 and the original Super Mario Party scoring 77. The new game features an impressive lineup of 110 mini-games, the largest collection in franchise history, and introduces five brand-new game boards.

Even though the launch date for “Super Mario Party Jamboree” was just confirmed on June 18th, some enthusiastic fans of the series have already had an opportunity to experience the game ahead of time. Apart from those given early access through pre-release codes, certain Target, Best Buy, and GameStop stores in the U.S. started offering playable versions of the game as early as October. Nintendo has confirmed that players who got early access will still be able to retain their previous save data once they install the day-one update.
