The latest Nintendo Direct delivered a huge surprise for Mario fans by revealing Yoshi’s official appearance in the upcoming Super Mario Galaxy Movie. The reveal confirms that the beloved green dinosaur will join Mario, Rosalina, and the rest of the cosmic crew when the film launches in April 2026.
During the showcase, Nintendo shared new footage highlighting the film’s interstellar worlds, emotional tone, and returning characters from the Galaxy era. Yoshi’s reveal quickly became the standout moment, sending fans into a frenzy across social media and solidifying the movie as one of the most anticipated video game adaptations yet.
