The Entertainment Software Ratings Board (ESRB) has published their rating of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, the upcoming Switch remake for the classic Gamecube RPG.
The game has been rated “E” for Everyone, as seen on the official page here. It is noted that the game contains “Mild Fantasy Violence” and “Mild Suggestive Themes”. The latter being due to certain “flirtatious” lines and characters with “exaggerated proportions” from the game which fans might be familiar with.
This is an adventure role-playing game in which players help Mario rescue Princess Peach from an alien group. As players traverse whimsical worlds, they interact with characters and engage in turn-/puzzle-based combat against paper creatures. Players use various attacks (e.g., boot stomp, hammer strike, fire balls) against cartoony enemies that disappear into stars and coins. A handful of characters engage in brief flirtatious dialogue (e.g., “Aren’t you a fine specimen of a man”; “Perhaps if I…grabbed you and gave you a little sugar”), and/or are designed with large chests/exaggerated proportions.
Perhaps more interestingly however, is that the appearance of this rating could suggest that the game is much closer to release than we think, having previously just been given a vague “2024” release date. We will be sure to report back with more details as they come.
