Paper Mario: Color Splash Due For Release This October

While Nintendo spent a good amount of time focusing on its Legend of Zelda game for the Wii U, there are other titles due for the system that deserve a great deal of attention. Amongst them is a sequel to the Paper Mario series, which promises to make a big splash when it debuts later this year.

The game will debut on October 7^th, and with it, Mario will find himself facing off against a new threat that promises to leave his town lifeless. He has a number of new abilities to his credit this time around, including a pair of scissors that can remove items from the environment, as well as a paint hammer, similar to the one found in the Splatoon games.

The trailer is below, and it’s certainly quite colorful for fans of the series. Look for more coverage soon!
