Discover how to find and collect every Power Moon in Super Mario Odyssey. Our guide details locations, strategies, and tips for all collectible Moons.
This section of the AntMag walkthrough for Super Mario Odyssey focuses on Power Moon hunting. Power Moons are the primary collectible in the game, used to power the Odyssey airship and unlock new kingdoms. This guide will help you find them all.
Walkthrough
- 1Explore each kingdom thoroughly. Power Moons are often hidden in plain sight, behind breakable objects, or require specific captures or actions.
- 2Talk to NPCs. Many characters offer hints or directly give you Power Moons for completing small tasks or challenges.
- 3Complete sub-missions and challenges. Kingdoms often have unique objectives, races, or puzzles that reward Power Moons upon completion.
- 4Defeat bosses and mini-bosses. Many boss encounters conclude with a Power Moon.
- 5Use Cappy effectively. Throwing Cappy at objects, enemies, and specific environmental elements can reveal hidden Moons or allow you to access new areas.
- 6Look for the tell-tale sparkle. Some Power Moons are hidden underground or in breakable spots, indicated by a distinct sparkle on the ground. Digging or ground-pounding these spots will reveal a Moon.
- 7Purchase Moons from the shop. Each kingdom has a shop where a limited number of Power Moons can be bought with coins.
Tips
- Revisit kingdoms after progressing. New Moons often become available after certain story events or by unlocking new captures.
- Pay attention to the music. Sometimes, a change in music or a specific sound cue indicates a hidden Moon nearby.
- Use the Hint Toad. If you're stuck, the Hint Toad can point you towards a Moon's general location for a small coin fee.
- Check the Odyssey's map. The map often shows the approximate location of Moons you haven't collected yet, especially after completing certain objectives.
