Free-to-Play Dr. Mario World Coming to Mobile Devices Summer 2019

Nintendo had success with Super Mario Run on mobile devices, a dedicated community for Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp, and have already announced a mobile version of their popular Mario Kart series. Today, the company announced a new, free-to-play Dr. Mario game with optional in-game transactions: Dr. Mario World.

The game is expected to release in Summer 2019 in over 60 countries, on iOS and Android operating systems. Dr. Mario’s paced, puzzle gameplay should lend especially well to a touch screen phone.

I like the “World” moniker for the game, harkening back to the classic Super Mario World title for the SNES.

Details offered for the game confirm micro-transactions will be optional.
