On November 8th, the world will be able to play the new Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020 but until then, we have been given a glimpse into three new Dream Events. Here’s what Nintendo had to say:

Players can go beyond the limits of reality and into the realm of imagination with Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020 in Dream Events. Dream Events offer intense, fast-paced experiences with the roster of Mario & Sonic characters that add an all-new layer of party fun when the game releases on 8th November in Australia and New Zealand. The new Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020 – Dream Events reveal trailer showcases the Dream Events in action.

Dream Shooting: In this score-based event, the goal is to aim and take fire at a range of targets placed all around a traditional Japanese manor. At different intervals during the match, flying kites will appear, which players can target for bonus points.

Dream Karate: Combining the lightning-fast action of Karate with free-for-all gameplay, players fight to light up the most blank spaces featured on the floor to expand their territory. Every space where an enemy falls by their hand will light up. The player or team that lights up the most spaces at the end of the round is the victor. It’s fun-filled chaos.

Dream Racing: Players hop on a hoverboard and zoom through a downhill course filled with question-mark power-ups and challenging obstacles, performing sweet tricks to earn a speed boost and gain the lead. The first one to reach the bottom wins.
