Super Mario Sunshine 2 is the sequel to Super Mario Sunshine. It's a 3D sandbox platformer like it's predecessor, and is developed with the assistance of Nightcap Devs. for the Nintendo Switch.
Plot[]
Mario, Princess Peach and Toadsworth are en route to Isle Delfino, within Peach's plane. They've been invited to the Shine Sprite festival on the island, as both a celebration and as an apology to Mario, seeing as how he was framed during the events of the last game. However, as they reach the island, they see that it's covered in goop once again. Suddenly, the plane is then hit by a cannonball, with the pilot forced to make a crash landing in the water off the coast of the island.
Mario exits the plane and starts looking around, seeing several Piantas nearby. One of the Piantas mentions that he saw Mario polluting the island alongside a gang of creatures he's never seen before. Mario decides to look for his impostor around the island before running into Professor E. Gadd. Gadd gives Mario an upgraded version of F.L.U.D.D., which he equips shortly after. He eventually arrives at Delfino Plaza and sees Shadow Mario, who has apparently kidnapped Princess Peach. Shadow Mario disappears into some goop and one of the gang members prepare to fight Mario. After defeating the him, Mario must chase down Shadow Mario and save Princess Peach once again.
