18 Most Anticipated Video Games Of 2021

2. Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury

Platform: Nintendo Switch

A game often overlooked due to its Wii U origins, Super Mario 3D World was another grin-inducing delight from Nintendo and this technical tidy-up should introduce its charms to the audience it deserves.

If this was just another Switch remaster of an overlooked classic, it would still have been enought to warrant a place on this list. However, the recently revealed Bowser's Fury mode looks to be one of the most intriguing additions to Mario canon in recent memory.

Why is Bowser a Kaiju? Why is Mario teaming up with Bowser Jr.? Why does picking up a giant bell turn Mario into a giant-sized Super-Saiyan with a furry fetish?

One thing's for sure: it's going to be a great time finding out the answers when the game launches next month.
