Power-up packs complete the full range, with Lego also revealing that you can also get new outfits for the Mario figure to unlock new features and powers. The suits include Cat Mario, Builder Mario, Propeller Mario, and Fire Mario.

The upcoming Lego experience is also compatible with a free Lego Super Mario app, which is a supporting feature. The app provides building instructions with zoom and rotating viewing tools and also keeps track of your scores when you're playing with the different sets. It also gives you suggestions for what you can do with the different builds, as well as a forum to share your own ideas.

Senior staff writer

I started out writing for the games section of a student-run website as an undergrad, and continued to write about games in my free time during retail and temp jobs for a number of years. Eventually, I earned an MA in magazine journalism at Cardiff University, and soon after got my first official role in the industry as a content editor for Stuff magazine. After writing about all things tech and games-related, I then did a brief stint as a freelancer before I landed my role as a staff writer here at GamesRadar+. Now I get to write features, previews, and reviews, and when I'm not doing that, you can usually find me lost in any one of the Dragon Age or Mass Effect games, tucking into another delightful indie, or drinking far too much tea for my own good.
