You won’t find these in the actual Olympics (yet)
Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020 is already filled with a bajillion existing and retro events, and now the developers are adding even more.
Dream Events are new types of competitions that stretch the bounds of reality just a bit to bring a slightly more party atmosphere to the games. The three that have been revealed thus far — hoverboard racing, arena shooting, and dream karate — won’t be appearing in the Olympics next year, or anytime ever, to be honest, but we can enjoy them in the digital world.
- Dream Shooting: Aim and take fire at a range of targets placed all around a traditional Japanese manor in this competitive score-based event! At different intervals during the match, flying kites will appear, which players can target for bonus points.
- Dream Karate: Fight to light up the most blank spaces featured on the floor to expand your territory, combining the lightning-fast action of Karate with free-for-all gameplay! Every space where an enemy falls by your hand will light up. The player or team that lights up the most spaces at the end of the round is the victor. It’s chaos, fun-filled chaos!
- Dream Racing: Hop on a hoverboard and zoom through a downhill course filled with question-mark power-ups and challenging obstacles, performing sweet tricks to earn a speed boost and gain the lead. The first one to the bottom wins!
Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020 arrives November 5th (8th in Europe) exclusively for the Nintendo Switch.
