Super Mario Run leaps onto Android next week

Super Mario Run is coming to Android devices on 23rd March, Nintendo has announced.

You can already pre-register for it on the Google Play Store.

This will be the 2.0 version of the game, which will include new characters and the chance to unlock stage 1-4 in the free demo. Right now you can only play the first 20 seconds of this level.

Unlocking the full game costs £9.99 / $9.99, but it's a one-time purchase that nets you all content in the game.

We rather liked Mario's mobile debut. "Super Mario Run's not just ingenious and demanding and infuriating and delightful. It's a game born of a deep understanding of its platform," our Chris Donlan wrote in his Super Mario Run review.
