Lego has revealed a 2D-style Super Mario World set featuring Mario and Yoshi.

The set is viewable today at San Diego Comic-Con, and official product images of it are already circulating online (thanks, Jay’s Brick Blog).

Reportedly, the set will launch on 1st October and feature 1215 pieces. We’ll update again when it’s officially announced with details of pricing.

The set is the latest entry into Lego’s adult-orientated Super Mario range, following earlier impressive sets such as the fold-out ? Block and Bowser statue.

This time, the focus is firmly on Nintendo’s earlier heritage once again – with a design based on 1990 SNES platformer Super Mario World.

UPDATE 11/7/24: Following yesterday’s Famitsu reveal, Arc System Works has released a first trailer for Double Dragon Revive, its 3D take on the long-running beat-’em-up series.

As per the accompanying English press release, Double Dragon Revive promises “renewed, stylish character graphics” with arcade favourites recreated in 3D, plus the “ultimate belt-scroll experience”, and “thrilling strategic action”.

“Experience the same simple and intuitive gameplay,” the studio writes, “with controls and balance refined for the modern era.” It adds Revive’s combat will require “adaptation and variety” and is “more than a simple button-masher”, encouraging players to “delve into the strategy by learning enemy patterns and finding the most effective attack timings.” There’s also promise of weapons and area gimmicks enabling players to “seize the upper hand in battle”.
