Super Mario Galaxy Fan Recreates Entire Game in Minecraft

A new mod brings Super Mario Galaxy to life within Minecraft, complete with every map in the game and dozens of stars to collect.

Adventure packs have quickly become a staple of both Minecraft's official content, as well as some of the new additions creations made by the modding community. However, while official content has the benefit of being pre-screened by Mojang for the safety of a player's PC or console, modding can bring in liscensed content, like maps inspired by Nintedo's Super Mario Galaxy.

One modder in particular has taken more than inspiration from a Nintendo property for their latest Minecraft mod, choosing instead to pull the maps of Super Mario Galaxy over in their entirety. Modder Chasin_Jasin, previously Vegan_Potato43, recently revealed the final results of the mod, though the initial process of the adventure pack had been shown a while before.

The pack itself not only has all of Super Mario Galaxy's worlds contained within, but also includes every regular mission from the game, playable for up to three players. Some of the side content, such as the Luigi missions, as well as the Prankster Comets, isn't currently available in the mod pack, and Chasin_Jasin doesn't mention any plans to include them in the future in the initial post. However, even without these extras, there are a total 86 stars for players to collect among the full list of galaxies that have been ported over into Minecraft.

While Chasin_Jasin developed most of the adventure pack, the modder did also credit two other creators, Hogwarts007 and 99blockmaking, who made the foundation that the rest of the worlds are built from. Along with crediting these two other creators with the development of the initial 20% of the mod, the modder also wanted to shout out another creator Leihcbone for inspiring them to make it through the project. Altogether, the scope of recreating an entire Nintendo world into Minecraft is massive, so it isn't a surprise that the building process took a more collaborative effort, as opposed to an isolated production by a single person.

It's quite a sight to see that the open sandbox of Minecraft has continued to become a source for fans to create, both within the game and under the hood. Even without mods, the creative possibilities of the game have been able to recreate everything from Lord of the Rings' Minas Tirith to working, redstone-powered computers. However, modding can make new gameplay modes, texture improvements, and bring other games to life within Mojang's title, in addition to the impressive builds that players are already capable of.

Minecraft is available now for Mobile, PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
