Following the massive box-office success of The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, Nintendo has snuck in a small update to Super Mario Galaxy 2 on the Nintendo Switch. This surprise addition brings even more depth to the game's existing narrative.
A New Chapter for Rosalina’s Storybook
This Super Mario Galaxy 2 update provides a proper epilogue to Rosalina's Storybook, which depicts the moving tale of the twin Lumas. For players who have been following the journey of the stars, this new content offers a much-needed conclusion to the subplot.
How to Access the Super Mario Galaxy 2 Update
Accessing this new chapter is straightforward, provided you have already progressed through the book's previous entries. To trigger the epilogue, follow these requirements:
- Ensure all previous storybook chapters are already unlocked.
- Complete any active galaxy within the game.
- Collect a Power Star during your mission.
Canon and Continuity
While fans may speculate that this epilogue codifies the new canon established by The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, it does not officially do so. Although creator Shigeru Miyamoto has seemed keen to honor movie lore within the games, this update remains separate from the film's narrative.
Despite the lack of official canon integration, there is still plenty of Rosalina to enjoy. This final chapter should prove to be an emotional experience for anyone invested in the Galaxy storybook subplot.
